The only concern is not so comfort controls and the fact that you need to constantly mash attack button. Tha graphics could have a little bit more work."},{"author_name":"pbdiode","author_uid":"7263","time":"Aug 26, 2013 @ 5:06pm","epoch":1377536460,"text":"The biggest thing lacking in this entry is audio -- otherwise, very interesting concept, I'd love to see it fleshed out and polished up!"},{"author_name":"AdventureIslands","author_uid":"11391","time":"Aug 26, 2013 @ 8:41pm","epoch":1377549360,"text":"Solid entry overall. Switching character every 10 seconds was interesting. Couple of things though: The characters didn't have all that many differences, the areas got pretty repetitive with same tiles and monsters, and the camera doesn't scroll with the player properly, it's really hard to see what's coming from the right."},{"author_name":"Diogo Muller","author_uid":"23705","time":"Aug 27, 2013 @ 1:46am","epoch":1377567660,"text":"It's a pretty good idea, and well done, but the lack of audio really hurts this game. \r\rFun game, anyway."},{"author_name":"nintendoeats","author_uid":"22819","time":"Aug 27, 2013 @ 1:53am","epoch":1377568080,"text":"Neat idea. Suddenly switching from a ranged to a melee character is an interesting experience. I do wish that there was a timer or something that appeared next to my character when you were about to change, so that I could plan accordingly.\r\rThe infinite jump mechanic wasn't immediately obvious, it took me a while to find it."},{"author_name":"raoz","author_uid":"16059","time":"Aug 27, 2013 @ 2:08am","epoch":1377568980,"text":"Pretty fun, as many have said, could use some audio"},{"author_name":"urth","author_uid":"285","time":"Aug 27, 2013 @ 2:21am","epoch":1377569760,"text":"Loved it!\rYou have a winner here.\rWith some work and polish and multiplayer mode we could be looking at something like Castle Crashers but a platformer."},{"author_name":"Unept","author_uid":"25813","time":"Aug 27, 2013 @ 2:22am","epoch":1377569820,"text":"Very clever idea!

I was hoping to have had audio, several more enemies, and unique specials for each character, but I didn't plan time correctly and ran out of time.

In Guild of Brothers you switch between 4 different characters every 10 seconds, each offers a different play style. The goal of the game is to get to and beat the boss. After the boss is defeated, you are sent back to the beginning and the difficulty is increased.
