Disposable Heroes
About
Meet the disposable heroes... A rag-tag band of nobodies who - quite by accident - represent the kingdom's last hope.
With the royal army slain it is they who must venture across the land on a quest to bring back the head of the king's son so that the light might return. If they had a brain cell between them they might actually be dangerous. -The game will have a 2 player co-op system.
(Play alone or let a friend join the game to fight side by side with you on your quest.)
ONCE UPON A TIME, IN A LAND FORGOTTEN BY MANY, LIVED A KING AND HIS WIFE, HAPPILY MARRIED AND LOVED BY THEIR SUBJECTS.
ON ONE DAY THE NEWSBOY SHOUTED ‘LONG LIVE THE KING AND HIS SON! LONG LIVE THE KING AND HIS SON!’
BUT THE DAY THE NEWBORN SAW THE LIGHT FOR THE FIRST TIME, SOMETHING TERRIBLE HAPPENED… THE SUN, WHICH HAD SHONE SO BRIGHTLY, DISAPPEARED WHEN THE BOY WAS BORN. CITIZENS WERE SHOCKED, THE KING AND HIS WIFE PARALYZED.
THE CHILD WAS SO HIDEOUS, SO UGLY AND DESPICABLE THAT NOT EVEN HIS OWN FATHER COULD BEAR TO LOOK AT HIM!
THE TOWNSFOLK DEMANDED THAT THE KING WOULD SACRIFICE HIS SON TO MAKE THE SUN COME BACK AND FILL THE LAND WITH HAPPINESS AGAIN…
TWO YEARS OF DARKNESS, HUNGER AND SICKNESS PASSED WHEN THE KING MADE A DECISION – HE WOULD SACRIFICE HIS ONLY SON TO SAVE THE KINGDOM FROM THIS CURSE.
AFTER HEARING HIS FATHER’S THROUGH THE THIN WALLS OF THE CASTLE, THE CHILD ESCAPED THROUGH A SECRET PASSAGE AND FLED INTO THE FOREST WHERE HE WOULD LIVE THE REST OF HIS LIFE…
THE KING SENT HIS BEST MEN INTO THE DARK LANDS, BUT NONE OF HIS SOLDIERS RETURNED. THE EVIL IN THE KINGDOM GREW STRONGER, AND WITHOUT THE LIGHT OF THE SUN THE LAND WOULD BE DOOMED FOREVER.
SINCE THERE WERE NO SOLDIERS LEFT, THE KING GATHERED A GROUP OF FOUR STRONG VILLAGERS TO KILL THE LAD AND BRING BACK HIS HEAD…
…UNFORTUNATELY THESE WERE THE ONLY FOUR LEFT…

Early Access Review
I just L O V E the consistency this game shows me. The graphics are, almost careless, but consistent so very well done and great to look at. You either like or dislike the art style but I feel the creator(s) really gave it a lot of thoughts and paid a lot of eye to the smallest details. Nicely done!
Taking the time to read the story behind this game is a must and especially check out the ‘guide to the evil dudes’ – Witch ♥♥♥♥♥ is my absolute favourite!
At first I found it very hard to keep up with this fast paced game but after playing it a few times I got the hang of it and I wanted to keep playing. I feel this is addictive and I cannot wait for my friend to come over so we can check out the 2 player mode!
After (what felt like a 100 tries and 10 levels) some time I reached what seems like a checkpoint and this mini game pops up.. sending me back to 1995! WTF! Trying to cross the street in NYC – the music really made me excited and alert and kept me on the edge of my seat for a while. Every piece of music seems to correspond with what is going on in the level and I think this was custom made?
Overall a game of good quality and knowing that this is just the early access version I cannot wait for the update(s)

Genre A Top Down Action Adventure Story The King & the Queen have had a Son. The Child is probably so ugly that the Sun no longer wants to show itself. The Villagers now want the King to sacrifice his Child so that the Sun returns again. The Child gets this Plan and disappears into a Forest, where he is found and hidden by a Lizard Priest. The King now instructs us to get his Son's Head.
Gameplay It's just significantly worse, much like "The Binding of Isaac." We fight our way through the individual Level rooms with different weapons & Power ups and destroy different Opponents & Bosses. Between the individual Levels there are Mini-games that are cool. Unfortunately, there are a lot of Bugs (sometimes you can't strike or Opponents don't spawn in Space etc). There are 4 different Characters, but you can only play 2 in The single Player (Gladiator & Wizard), the Princess & The Orc can only be chosen by Player 2 (why ever). Distinguishing, the Characters only do themselves in Appearance, because they all play the same.
Achievements There Are 10 Achievements. 4 of those don't seem to work. In the Community, some Players have already complained about it, but so far there has probably been no Patch or Fix (which is absolutely annoying).
Pro/Contra + Funny Story + Netter Graphics STYLE + Sound OK + music OK + Nette Mini-games + Collectible cards-Broken Achievements (Then don't think not to include any at all)-Many bugs (opponents don't spawn, sometimes can't strike etc.)-4 characters but you can only play 2 (the ande ren two are only selectable for Player 2) Conclusion In the State you definitely can't recommend the Game
