20XX

20XX is a roguelike action platformer that can be played with a friend. Players jump and shoot their way through ever-changing levels, collect awesome new powers, and battle mighty bosses in the name of saving the human race.

20XX is a game built to feel like Mega Man X, but with random levels, random powerups, permanent death, and multiplayer. The game uses a procedural level generation algorithm that pieces together levels from a certain number of mechanics at a time; it switches rapidly between playing like an action game and playing like a platformer, mixing precision jumping with fevered combat.

Add in permadeath and over 100 powerups to find in between agonizing deaths and players have hours of nail-biting jumping-and-shooting goodness on their hands.

20XX also features full co-op.

Features

 * Action-platformer gameplay in the style of Mega Man X

Story
In the distant past (2045), a legendary inventor working for EZN, the world's largest online retailer, creates the Enterprise NeuroKinetic Intelligence (ENKI) to help with simple sorting jobs around the factory. ENKI gains sentience and accidentally starts a robot revolution.

Fast forward to 2090. ENKI feels really, really bad about wiping out humanity, so he tries to empower the last few survivors to fight back (the players) by turning them into robo-hybrids. ENKI resides in the ancient shipping facility of Eridu, floating high in orbit somewhere above Earth.

Trivia

 * In its original Kickstarter campaign, 20XX was originally called Echoes of Eridu.
