Description
About This Game
Ambidangerous is a top-down shooter that puts your ambidexterity to the test. Simultaneously control two elite soldiers as you fight your way through four randomized areas, five unique bosses, and a dozen enemy types. Take the challenge alone or share the controller with a friend for co-op play.
You play as Amy and Dexter, two elite soldiers on a mission to rescue the rest of their unit after crash landing on a remote island research facility. A strange aura emanating from the island has turned the its residents into violent monsters, both organic and mechanical.
Ambidangerous is a game about ambidexterity (using both left and right hands), so enemies and weapons are designed with two-handed play in mind. However, you can opt to play in Amputee Mode, which lets you progress through the game with just one hand. Perfect if you're missing a hand, sipping a beer, or holding a baby.
IMPORTANT: This game uses a special control scheme that requires an Xbox-style (X-input) gamepad with two joysticks. It cannot be played with a keyboard and mouse.
