Cool world you created, the music gave a me Halo vibes a couple of times haha. And nice camera animations on the intro too!
Also, on the intro I noticed the grass was very metallic and had a glare from the light source. Consider dropping the metallic and smoothness values of the material alllll the way down.
In any case, this is a cool game :)

Line BenderHey, cool game! Thanks you didn't do movement with two cameras :DD I think you can do enemies spawn better, now it's too randomly, but It is already pretty good!

SUPER PUZZLE BROS.This was very disorientating at first, but once I got used to it, it got a lot better! Very interesting mechanic joining the character cameras together like that, and was fun too :) Good submission! Really cute graphics too

Mapping It OutThis is the first joined screen shooter type game. Very fun concept, love the 3D graphics :) Also fun to just spam the scroll wheel for particle effects haha.

U-Night FuryControlling two first person characters in tower defense is an idea I haven't seen and it was immediately intuitive. I had some trouble coming up with a way to use that in my favor though - since I was always just targeting whatever slime was closest to me, I didn't get much of a chance to use both characters at once in any useful way. It could be cool if you added a way to freeze one of them in place so they can keep shooting at one horde while I control the other one to take care of another.
Super unique concept though!

Super Ball & ChainA really cool concept with great execution. It might've been a bug on my end but the screen on top had a slight downwards angle that made it harder to see the targets. Had to look up and down to shoot for both screens. Having several different spells was a good feature. Maybe adding some sensitivity option would make it easier for gameplay. Great game!

Soul BoundThis is a lot of fun and get's really confusing/hard! Also very original and smart idea!

Combined ShieldsFun and challenging game! Nice and original twist on controlling 2 characters simultaneously and cool selection of spells! Though I still couldn’t beat it because there are too many of slimes, haha. They appear to be coming from 4 sides but I barely manage to handle 2. Also, the game lags quite a bit when there are many slimes.

Deep and SoundDefinitely a very different concept following the same general theme, it's an interesting setup for a game though, my favorite part would probably be the spell variation. The fact they shoot differently, have different effects and change based on the scroll I feel like could lead to some cool combos.
The camera and such though really messed me up because I was getting disoriented by the flame circle and the double cameras which made it a lot harder to figure out what I was doing. Some sort of variation between them could possibly help? Although personal preference I would say a switch between cameras along with each person having some sort of perk or certain slimes needing a certain spell to beat them etc. would be better (my preference tho so..).
