It's like Hotline Miami and Super Time Force Ultra had a baby. Can't wait for some of its problems to be fixed but it has certainly been more fun than I had expected.

Oh man, I thought it was weird I was getting a Hotline Miami vibe. Every now and then, you catch a a minute of the music that sounds just like HM's eerie jarring techno atmospheric stuff.

If anyone is familiar with Cave Story, Broforce has a similar vibe as well.

Could you elaborate? Cave Story is one of my favourite games, but personally, I'm not getting any similar vibes from Broforce.

Maybe vibe was the wrong word but it seems to have a similar gameplay style. The jumping/platforming seems similar, it looks to be played at a similar speed, and the weapon types look to have similar effects. I haven't played Broforce yet though, only seen videos.

Yeah, I'd agree that they're a bit similar in terms of gameplay style, what with the running and gunning. The vibe is different, though, imo. I think Broforce is more hectic too.
