Tango Fiesta

Tango Fiesta is a top-down co-operative two stick shooter for 1 to 4 players. Set in a world where the events from every single 80’s action film ever made actually happened to one unlucky ex-special-forces hero called John Strong, you and up to three friends get to blast, shoot, knife, and rescue your way through endless procedurally generated levels in the ultimate story of a one (or two, or three, or four) man army prevailing against every evil (mostly South American) the world (mainly the USA) has ever known!
What’s in Tango Fiesta right now? All of this...
6 classic heroes to choose from! John Strong, the world’s least-known most-dangerous man. Macmillan, his best friend and comrade in arms. Miller, a slightly scary Australian man with a nice jacket and an even nicer sawn-off shotgun. And then there’s Bionic Cop. He thinks he’s a Cop. He isn’t. He thinks he’s a robot. He’s not. But the same delirium that fuels his power fantasy seems to imbue him with, well, some real power. Conchita, five feet three inches of pure dynamite, this wrongly-convicted felon is out to prove her innocence by killing everyone in her way. Dr Henk is a doctor of parapsychology don't you know? He loves bustin' too, and this hobby just became his only means of survival!
4 player co-operative mayhem! With local play or online, team up with your friends and deal out death and destruction to the endless hordes that threaten to kidnap the your daughter/kick off World War III/turn future Detroit into a parking lot! With so many bad guys to defeat and bosses to kill - you gotta co-operate, right?
Endless fun! Four full worlds to blast your way through. Take in the sun (and avoid the bullets) on the golden sanded beaches of Gordon Island, or dive for cover in the usefully-tough foliage that grows in the Central American Jungle. Prove your innocence (and make loads of money) fighting through the fiendish death mazes of Who Wants To Be A Killionaire! Make sure you don't cross the streams while busting some ghosts in the spooky and exciting Ghoul Squad! Procedurally generated levels mean no two games are ever the same, and 17 enemy types keep the action challenging and fresh!
Massive Arsenal! Use the Uzi, Machinegun, Shotgun, Sawn-off Shotgun, Viper Combat Rifle, Grenades and Melee attacks to crush your enemies, to see them driven before you… but we’ll draw the line at hearing the lamentation of their women. Say hello to every little friend you could ever want - all 21 of them!
Fully destructible scenery! Our heroes ain’t got time to bleed, but the rest of the world is in for it. Getting overrun? Destroy those Spawn Huts to stem the tide of bad guys. Stuck between a rock and a hard place? Blast your way through any wall or structure - show those bricks who’s boss!

Planned Features:
New Heroes! Were they in a film or TV series in the 80’s? Then they’ll get a chance for their true story to be told in Tango Fiesta. You tell us which heroes you want to play as, and we’ll do our best to honour them! We’ll have more heroes than Dillon has cigars!
New worlds! Explore and save an almost endless variety of dystopian, scifi, fantasy, urban, jungle, forest, tropical, desert and derelict environments the only way a true action hero knows how - with violence! It’s enough to make even John Matrix feel ‘dead tired’!
New Weapons! You can’t be a real action hero without enough weaponry to make even the most self-indulgent gearing-up montage quake in fear! Pistols, machineguns, shotguns, beam weapons, thrown objects. We’ve built all the systems, now we just need to know what you want to see first!
Storyline! Although our main inspirations are better known for their snappy one liners over their well developed character arcs we’re taking the opportunity to set the world to rights. Help John Strong as he unveils the true story behind all of your favourite classic 1980’s action flicks. Go with him if you want to believe!
Bosses! Every Quaid needs his Richter. Every Ripley needs her Alien Queen. Every Matrix needs his Bennett. We’re going to cover you in so many iconic, hilarious, over the top and challenging bosses you’ll wish you’d never promised to rescue the president’s daughter/defeat the communists/save the world.
