1001 Spikes details
A bunch of details have come in for Nicalis’ 1001 Spikes. The latest information can be found below.
– Can play with four people throughout the main game
– Can work together to beat tough levels or be jerks to each other
– Single-screen competitive mode lets every player fight over a golden vase that spews coins
– Holding the vase earns you coins, and if you die by your opponent’s hand or the stage, you quickly respawn
– Tower of Nanner mode: vertical stages, 9 lives for each player, reach the top of the tower without everyone dying
– Can hurt each other in this mode as well, but doesn’t make much sense to do so since it’s cooperative
– Playable characters include Indiana Jones-ish dudes, Mr. Video Game (looks like a familiar plumber), and more
– Mr. Video Game dude throws fireballs and a similar musical theme plays when you use him
– Knight goes down to his underwear when he dies like Arthur from Ghouls ‘n Ghosts
– Ninja reminiscent of Ryu from Ninja Gaiden
– Belmont-inspired character wielding a whip
CommanderVideo included
– Each character has strengths and weaknesses
– Could be out in March/April
