This is very active indie developer work in progress, but already fully playable.
Enjoy novel concepts:

-SATISFYING GUNPLAY weapons have recoil and accuracy/aiming:
Focus your shots with Pistols and Rifles to increase accuracy and damage:

Shoot automatic Weapons in accurate bursts or hold for rapid-fire, decreasing accuracy and damage, but suppressing your opponents into cover:

-TACTICAL COVER : crouch behind environment to be invulnerable

or utilize partial protection when moving behind or shooting over:
             

-Control 2 characters. One main character, clasically with WASD and Mouse aiming. One Sidekick indirectly via orders (either follow you or send him to where your mouse is like in a classic RTS - he needs to be rescued first in a later level).

-this makes this shooter more tactical and you should use the interplay of both characters to suppress enemies, flank their positions and get in throwing distance, to blow up that mg nest in their trench.

There is a tutorial in the game, please read the message on screen to maximise your fun!
Some people miss a classic "HUD", let us know if you do so as well or if you prefer the increased immersion coming from no HUD.

Any honest feedback and bugreports  are welcome!

We are always looking for talented Pixel Artists, Story Writers and Sound Designers to work with. Let us know if you have any skills and enjoy the project.

The games graphics are also easy to mod: paint over the sprites in the folder and then press "U"  Key in game to update the sprites with what you painted! Feel free to share.

Summary of key functions for Legion of Two:

use + and - to control sound.
Mousewheel to zoom //(might bug out when using 2 monitors. works perfectly fine on windows 11 single monitor laptop).

WASD to move, SHIFT to sprint (you can´t shoot during sprint)..

LEFT MOUSE (LMB) to aim and shoot:

(Rifles, Pistols: hold mouse to increase accuracy and damage. Release to shoot.

Shotgun, Flamethrower, MP, MG: hold mouse for rapidfire - decreases accuracy).

Rifle and MG can not be used while walking. No weapon can be used when sprinting.

R to reload. Magazine is limited Ammo, total Magazines are unlimited.

SHIFT + LEFT MOUSE (LMB): Throw grenade or Molotov.

Colored Circle shows health: Green = full, orange = wounded, red = danger.

You start each map with full health and both Heroes again, as long as one survives. Medipacs are found at strategic locations and can only be picked to heal instantly (like in Doom). Time their collection.

Cover is essential. Crouching behind cover makes a unit invulnerable to bullets from that direction (also your enemies). 

Shooting from or running behind cover gives partial protection from that direction. 

Units in the open are easy to kill. Use flanking tactics and explosives to take care of enemies behind cover.

COMPANION: He looks for his own targets and cover within range.

Press Right Mouse Button (RMB) to send him. Double RMB to let him sprint.

Dont click/send him directly on enemies. Rather send him from cover to cover.
RMB click on cover will let him take cover depending on the enemies direction. 

F to toggle "following". Where he will stay behind you, he will look for cover near you.when you stay, and run with you when you advance

E to let companion stay in cover (will not attack, except melee, E to switch back to normal). Take Cover!

X to switch between Characters (use this to pick up weapons/ switch weapons with the companion)

I to remove tutorial text.

ALT or ESC lets you switch map or restart.

Press F2 to toggle Texture interpolation (can be handy when playing zoomed).
