Surprised you didn't mention that House of Pain is an obvious Splatterhouse tribute, for a second I thought it was a remake or something similar.
Nice collection all around. I had some on my backlog already like Buccaneers and Fallen City Brawl, but I enjoy adding more titles. My biggest surprise is finding out Night Slashers is getting a remake. I love that there is a 4 players co-op support this time.
Mayhem Brawlers and Nightmare Cops are my two most awaited titles. Hopefully the latter gets a release date soon.
It's unreal how beat um ups are making a huge come back. I love it
Yeah bad. I just bought TMnT shredders revenge and SOR4
This humble channel has become one of the main resources for indie game fans. Videos are consistently top quaity
You have three choices for an beat em up: Cool characters, 3d movement and non-cute graphics.
You can have two.
I remember watching Toxic Crusaders back in the day (It was actually based on an 80's movie, I believe); so, this will be a nostalgia trip for me. Underling Uprising looks interesting, too.
Nice. I should track down those episodes
Quit Today looks just amazing! :D Incredible cartoon energy, a slick and original aesthetic and neat "comic book panel" interaction from side characters. I really wish the devs the best because they do deserve it!
"Detained: Too good for school" stands out for me. The Vanillaware art, the modern approach with the i-frame dodge, the cool combos and last but not least: VERY good keyboard support. Most beat 'em ups treat keyboard players poorly at best, but "Detained..." is not the case.
Wow! You put out a fantastic list. I'm so looking forward to playing Quit Today, Maiden Cops and Toxic Crusaders as their demos on Steam were excellent. I really like the variety of genres and pixel art graphics in each of the titles you showcased. SparkHunt looks very well polished and Nightmare Cops looks insane. Great work Clenmy!
Glad you liked it. Some interesting ones here for sure
Oh man I forgot about Nightmare Cops - it looked so cool when you presented it however long ago it was!! Also Lost Castle 2 is coming soon (not sure if that is Indie exactly, I'm sure you introduced me to the first one)
After paying close attention to Final Knight it looks to me like is Monster Hunter in 2D.
Great video and list. I love beat em ups
nice
Awesome!!!! Looking forward to these games!!!! ❤❤❤
House of Pain looks like a tribute to the Sega Genesis series “Splatterhouse” series
You have to do 3D Upcoming Beat-em-up Indie Games
I wish Capcom would bring back Final Fight
never say never!
Yo these indie beat ‘em ups are looking dope! I’m looking forward to them 😎💯 streets of chaos and ronin’s run are definitely on my list
+2 wishlisted games
thx as always
I'm playing Deathwish Enforcers which released a few days ago, cool game.
Night Slashers Remake art is closer to Mayhem Brawler (Hero Concept, 2021) than SOR4, the animation is a give away.
Thanks Clemmy ☺️🤪🙂
Always great games coming, how's life treating you?
I thought that The Phantom could have made the list. Definitely looks better to me than G.I. Joe.
that thumbnail look like it's gonna be shoot em up or run and gun
House of Pain is a clone of Splatterhouse from PC Engine... I recommend everyone to play this game (or emulate it)
House of pain, is a splatter house tribute. Old game on turbo graphics and sega back in they day.
I hope Nightmare Cops comes out!
"House of pain" looks like someone saying "Splatterhouse can't complain about us since they copied Jason Vorhees"
Oh wow, House of Pain is 1:1 Splatterhouse, lol. That takes me back
ah, so it is
Are there no 3d beat em ups like Die Hard Arcade or The Warriors?
Upcoming: Streets of rage 5 revolution
yeah the new SoR and Golden Axe games by Sega look to be that
Raw Metal
Ronin's Run - Looks the part but as you say there's a lot more work to be done on the AI standing around doing nothing and imho the hack-slash for Samurai needs to be more precise to fit the theme of the thin blade and arcing cut-motion... a hack-slash type of attack can be satisfying but more as a spear or club or cartoon style exaggerated weapon. Really dig the look but think it needs to evoke and have more precise gameplay to pull together.
Nightmare Cops - Instantly made me think of one of the best games ever, Behemoth's Castle Crashers so there's some solid pedigree here and it looks a cut above all the others imho. With that said, the colour and silhouette lines need to be better contrast to ensure the action is easier to keep track of and even just appreciate. It's a bit dark and muted in contrast to Castle Crashers where everything was crisp and clear.
All titles in this genre tend to be fun one way or another bashing hoards of Guards! Guards! so entertaining bunch of contenders here but definitely a lot of areas to fine-tune for a break-out game in the beat'em-up genre.
You forget to put Vengeance Hunters on the list!
I already knew about a lot of these but a remake of NIGHT SLASHERS? SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!!!
👀
Sadly, I agree on G.I. Joe as it looks better than the 1st trailer, but nothing at Shredders Revenge levels. But as you stated, I would love to be proven wrong. It doesn't look terrible, but considering how under used that franchise is, I would have loved something that looks a lot better. But I'm a fan of the franchise, so I'll probably support it at some point.
Exactly my sentiment
Treasure chest full of good titles!
nice!
Toxic crusaders looks not bad.
yeah!
Need a Littlefighter remaster!
oo yeah, wonder what happened to those guys
edit: andddd it's NFTs
@@ClemmyGames weeeaaaak xD
best beat em ups are the ones with rpg elements
I love beat 'em ups... Specially those where you can grab your partner and give him some knee hits and say "oh sorry, that wasn't on purpose". Pure arcade joy.
Night Slashers Remake only if the original game is included.
hmm, i think they did release it as a standalone "classic" edition or whatever
Does any one remember a upcoming beat them up mmo? I think it was already featured in the channel but i cant find it😅
House of pain looking like og Splatterhouse, good times
I couldn't understand the name of the game that runs alongside the remake of Buccaneers: Shipshape. Would anyone be able to help me?
Abathor
melhor canal indie
What was the name of that honorable mention… ever fall?
Abathor
@@ClemmyGames thanks
I can’t believe that PS4 is not Detained 😢😭😭
Is any of these games coming on PS5!!!
Wouldn’t Ronin's run be in hack and slash genre?
“Hack and slash” is another one of those genres that is difficult to define. Some people consider Diablo games hack and slash, others devil may cry or kingdoms of amalur
@@ClemmyGames diablo can just be considered arpg.
House of pain yesssss woohooo
You don’t know about toxic crusader 😂. You gotta be young as hell. Youngster that was a classic movie in the 80’s
90s kid (not that young anymore)
Omg finally someone who cares about my favorite Genre Beat'em up
House of Pain é um antigo jogo de arcada 😃
mmhmm
So many indie development making beat em up game is too hard. because they are slow unfinished animation fighting style, stage, enemies, weapons, bosses ,food items and weapons items.
I don't really like beat em ups, but Pizza Kidd has huge Comic Zone vibes! Even if I'm not playing it, it sure is something pleasing to see. Not to mention the other game similar to Splatterhouse.
Hmm, I'm not seeing Comix Zone...
Nice Sponsor ✌️
You know it!
likeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
Ra Ra Boom isn't coming to consoles.
After what I've seen, we can say that the beat em up genre is dead, nothing good. If earlier there were 1-2 interesting games in the genre, now everything is kind of faded, dull, or cringe and trash.
The latest good games in the genre of street of rage 4 and river city girl.
Of the videos, only Pizza kidd can be highlighted, dynamic, smooth animations, nice art design and pixel art.
I feel ya. The beatemup genre has been pretty dry. Mayhem Brawler 2 looks decent and I can only hope that Sega delivers with Streets of Rage Revolution.
@@SolidSnake240 mayhem brawler More of a parody of street of rage 4, not badly drawn, but the rest is not very good. The animations lack smoothness, the moves look bad, and the hitboxes are not clear. There are no special features of the playable characters. In general, only the painted environment can be distinguished. The game doesn't have any kind of self-sufficiency and identity. One relatively average game in the genre doesn't save the dead genre as a whole.
The developers forgot about the possibility of sequential passage with forks, characters, movesets, normal hitboxes, history - although this is not the strong point of the genre.
P.s. The new street of rage and golden axe are more disappointing. Gone to 3D. Golden axe will look like a 3D action game visually.
@@endrgarYea it's a shame, hopefully something good comes along soon but I'm not holding my breath lol
TMNT shredders revenge is also another banger of recent years but yeah the genre is dry as my summer sock!
How is it dead when this list exists? Also Slave Zero X(even if it is a Hack and Slash) got released a few days ago, check that out even
Lost Castle 2 >>>
I am over nostalgia. Like.. in general. Id rather see indie devs tryign some thing new with a genre or with an artstyle or other things. Have the same game over and over is not interesting for me. Sadly innovation is also nowhere to be found in modern day big releases anymore. I would try out new stuff any day. But my nostalgia is non existent except for maybe two games:the early NES and sNES zelda titles and ..oddly the Wipeout series
I really HATE Night Slashers Remake's graphics. The pixelart in the original looks much better. This looks all completely off. I'm liking Toxic Crusaders but I don't understand House of Pain. What's the point in recreating Splatterhouse to then shy away from blood, even if it's not red, and include that tacky red blink on enemies any time they are hit?
10:07 I would chip in to a fundraiser preventing this abomination remake from being released 😬
Play Openbor fan made Night Slashers versions instead, my favorite one has World Heroes characters as a guest characters, it's great!
1st!
Get a life, buddy
hi!
@@ufazig not cool bro 💀.
@@ClemmyGames sup boss, keep up with the content you make ☺
I really love your contents and I don't want to be considered too aggressive, but is it just me to think that your ch- sh- sounds spitting sth? like, too much saliva?
Its mostly pc games...crap, Nintendo switch consoles pls!!!
This is horrible. We should be wanting old school with a new action gameplay. Not a refreshed old game packaged as new. Heads up......take lessons from AAW wrestling or Fading Afternoon, and many other indie games for gameplay combat styles.
Yea we need innovation for this genre. Not constant rehashes of older games.
Ya todo esta inventado amigo
