Risk of Rain vs The Lightbringer
Risk of Rain
Risk of Rain is a rogue-like, action platformer that is difficult enough to be challenging and is punishing (perma-death). You can choose to face the constantly spawning enemies alone - well, not exactly since you'll have your drone - or cooperatively with up to 3 other friends in hopes of collecting all the tools you need to find the teleporter machine and to finally, head back home. The enemies you fight are randomly generated by combining traits and abilities from a fixed yet extensive list as well, making the game a lot more unpredictable and hence, enjoyable.In addition to the 12 unique characters that you can unlock and a plethora of powerups to use, the game is also set on a mysterious planet with diverse biomes, ranging from dark forests to the frozen tundra. There is even an engrossing storyline which you can slowly piece together by collecting items and monster logs in your adventures.
Risk of Rain is definitely a fun and challenging platform game to play alone, but it particularly shines when you play it with friends. Time just seems to fly by in co-op mode and of course, let's not forget about the hilarious moments when one of you messed up (intentionally or otherwise).
The Lightbringer
The Lightbringer is a gorgeous, story-driven casual action-platformer where you play as a young boy who is apparently the “chosen one”, a.k.a. the Lightbringer who will bring the light to dispel the slimes that have infested the world. Featuring fun mechanisms to interact with and lots of stuff to collect, the game is very similar in essence to iconic favorites like Zelda, Yooka Laylee, Spyro the Dragon, or Crash Bandicoot.Platforms
