In Tactical Hero, you control two superhero avatars in a side scrolling showdown between you and your opponent. Choose to play against the AI or a friend in combat, and fight to the death with your five lives — the winner will be the last one standing after the other dies five times. Each time one of your heroes dies, they will respawn as a new hero, from spiderman to the Flash!
The catch in this game is that your heroes don’t move independently. You’ll need to use your timing and coordination skills to try to get them in a formation that can do the most damage to your opponent, while trying to avoid their bullets.
How to Play: In single player mode, control the blue heroes with the arrow keys (Up for jump, left to turn/move left and right to move/turn right) Fire your heroes’ guns by clicking your mouse. In two player mode, Player 2 can control their red heroes with the W, A and D keys (W for jump, A to move/turn left, and D to move/turn right), and by pressing the space bar to fire the guns. The trick to this game is finding the right configuration of your heroes to both fire their bullets at the enemies. Do you choose to try to jump over the bullets, or to try to sneak behind your enemies? It’s all up to you to work out how to be the final champion!
