It switches back and forth between bastard-assly hard multiplayer Danmaku levels and blood-soaked awesomeness like a God of War meets side-scrolling beat-em-up that D&D game we played on MAME. There are several different characters to choose from:
Garmouth the Universe Melter
Vimulous the Punch-Fist
Barkvark the Sword Stabber
Vlick the Wild
Robyn the Death Doer
Jowls the Explosion Elemental
The story revolves around a group of badasses that gathered to save some chick with really nice tits from some greedy wizard fucker. But more important than tits and wizard is the AXE OF GOD. This axe has the power to cut planets in half AND ITS SAKE NOT EVEN DROP.
The axe is like the size of a mountain. In fact, it's embedded in a mountain and its handle is the location of the last level. When you beat the game, your character takes the axe and CUTS THE PLANET IN HALF FOR NO GODDAMNED REASON GOOD JOB YOU FUCKING WIN.
