Kraken Skulls by Razbury Games
Kraken Skulls is a four player couch co-op tentacle beat 'em up. Protect the Kraken's head while trying to rack up a high score! All assets / music are original too :)
XBox controller recommended, and required to do more than one player. You can play single player with just the keyboard.
*Note, google drive's interface is weird; click the download button (downwards arrow) at the top of the screen. Sometimes, it's hidden, so move your mouse up there and jiggle a little.
UPDATE: We got really excited by the positive reception of Kraken Skulls, and have taken your feedback to heart. We're creating a new build which fixes the bugs described below, fixes the art assets, and adds a ton of features: new ships, new modes, new levels, new attacks. We really think this could become a cute little party game!

Other than that I like the concept and the chaos. All the arms can get quite confusing, but instead of feeling annoying it feels more like an Octodad kind of endearing clumsiness.
If you want to do some upgrades in the future I suggest you something for the gamepad input. Instead of use bumpers for attack, I would try it with the "clicks" of the joisticks. Your fingers would be tentacles <3
Keyboard controls weren't working for me, but controller was fine. Obviously best with a controller anyway - it's quite challenging to move both tentacles!
+1 for being a Kraken ;)
My only real complaint would be that the menu buttons are very unresponsive.
Gameplay, howevers, wasn't super easy on keyboard. And it was me or the tentacles were always failing to hit.
Would love to try it with gamepads.
Thanks so much for playing, and hopefully we can get it fixed for you!
