Worlds Together
Co-op arena action for phone and tablet
Co-op horde arena action
Worlds Together does not have a page of its own yet.
A co-op action game for Android, iOS and tablets, in landscape orientation: frenetic hordes seen from above, with worlds, heroes, enemies and effects of their own in each stage. The design plans solo play, optional bots and online co-op for up to four; online is still in development.
Four heroes against the horde, in worlds with identities of their own. The first one in development is Bichos do Mau Tempo (Storm Critters), of ice and lightning, with Nimbo, the cloud capybara, Pingo, the frog, and Zé Trovão, the moth.
Highlights
Co-op for 2 to 4 (planned)
Play with friends, or alone with bots, in a group of up to four participants. Online does not exist yet.
Worlds with identities of their own
Each world has its own cast, enemies, weapons, effects and scenery, with its own palette. Today only a slice of the first world is playable.
Frenetic action on the phone
A joystick, three buttons per hero (attack, special and ultimate) and a dodge by gesture on the joystick.
Bosses and expeditions
Go down into the caves, climb to the Summit and face bosses like the Storm Snail (Caracol da Tempestade).
Fair to everyone (planned)
The plan is no loot boxes, no ads during a match and no paid power in co-op.

Breath, branching lightning, bubbles and rain, made for each world.
HUD faithful to the approved art
The interface follows the reference art of each world.
