Vile Alliance (Glinny or Cahrsurraurher) and Ingredients Included
I was trying to use them all and still make an enjoyable game, so I have a lot! But, because I started so late, I had to sacrifice a few.

I couldn't do most of the audio stuff (Voice acting, stomach growling, deep bass "oh, no").

And despite having a story with betrayals, and bosses that come out of nowhere, etc, most of those stuff were only described in text format.

I've got pretty much everything else in the game.
Around 23 vile ingredients, and 5 more that are also included in some imcomplete form in the game.

Maybe someday, I'll make a version 3 with all of them implemented!

I appreciate that each character has their own unique, room-clearing super attacks. Points for being the only entry that attempted the L3/R3 stealth/special directional swap

It came to my attention that there might be some bugs preventing you from finishing the game. Most of them can be fixed by simpling "Restarting" the level from the Pause Menu. Although, you might be unable to use the second stronger attack for the characters (Dodge roll, tackle and water bullets, respectively).

If you were stuck and don't want to replay it, you can watch a full playthrough I did of the game and posted on youtube here:

It's cool you got so many of the ingredients in there. I was cracking up laughing when I heard the bad recorder music on the world map for the first time :D

Thanks! The funniest one in my opinion is the final boss battle music.
It's so bad! haha

Can only be played with a controller, by the way.
