Spelunky
++ : Highly addictive. A really graduating feeling of progession. Lots of secrets. Perfect soundtrack. Kiss from a pug included.
-- : It is so hard not to kill each other when throwing a stone at a spider.
http://store.steampowered.com/app/239350/
Original version : http://spelunkyworld.com/original.html
Battleblock Theater
++ : Great sense of humour, really challenging, cute cats. I said : cute cats.
-- : A bit too short.
http://store.steampowered.com/app/238460/
Don't Starve Together
++ : Best survival game imo, absolutely time-consuming.
-- : The most punitive game I ever played.
http://store.steampowered.com/app/322330/
Guacamelee
++ : Very nice artistic direction ! Original, enjoyable and fluid.
-- : Bit too short also. But that's the only con I can think of.
http://store.steampowered.com/app/214770/
Nuclear Throne
++ : Many possibilities, much frustration, nice rewards !
-- : Ended up playing with the same characters over and over.
http://store.steampowered.com/app/242680/
Gauntlet
++ : Co-op also online. Good difficulty progession. Classic.
-- : Only two characters are really interesting when upgraded. Arcade mode presents not much interest.
http://store.steampowered.com/app/258970/
Enter the Gungeon
++ : Fun, with secrets rooms and guns absolutely everywhere.
-- : Many guns but not that many ways of shooting, sad.
http://store.steampowered.com/app/311690/
Towerfall
++ : Friendly fire, punchy, and addictive.
-- : Not enough levels (but more recently added).
http://store.steampowered.com/app/251470/
Dead Nation
++ : Zombies everywhere ! True co-op and moments of real tension.
-- : Not enough differents guns (you'll be hearing that woman's voice in your head for a long time).
http://www.housemarque.com/games/dead-nation/
BroForce
++ : Lots of references, bloody good time, feeling like a true hardcore hero when a mission is completed (that guitar solo...!).
-- : Characters quickly unlocked. Not enough missions.
http://store.steampowered.com/app/274190/
Binding of Isaac Rebirth
++ : Every benefits of the original without having to wait your turn.
-- : Not exactly a co-op game... more a way of helping/ getting your partner killed.

What about risk of rain?
Kayayayaya
Good list! Hyper Light Drifter is a recent purchase on Steam and I've been having a blast with it. I'll probably talk about it for months.
Sheepyhead
Stardew Valley bitches!
DoakMD
Enter The Gungeon is SOOOOOO good.
Drunkonmilk
Towerfall is seriously so much fun! I'd also recommend 'Speed Runners'.
RAGSOOK
Any fans of Trine on here? Loved that one.
IGAsp1re
What about crypt of the necrodancer?
PeculiarBaguette
Didn't liked it that much actually...Harder in coop mode I think.
g3r4r
Risk of Rain is pretty good too
Evris
I love battle block theatre ever since I got it with gold
logant
"Great sense of humor, really challenging, a bit too short." Sounds like what my last two girlfriends had to say about me.
PeculiarBaguette
This made me laught way too much :D
hyretic
My personal favourite is Orcs Must Die 2. Played nearly 200h of that with my girlfriend. So much fun.
Pipetri
I'm playing it with a friend and we're on the verge of finishing it. Once you find trap you're comfortable with is awesome.
hyretic
Upgraded brimstone and wall grinders were a couple of my favourites. And the lightning ring was a must choose 90% of the time.
weedtittiesandkitties
Castle Crashers is awesome and even better than Battle Block in my opinion. Both are from the same devoloper
CubicL3mon
I don't think you can compare the two. Though I didn't play that much castle crashers
PeculiarBaguette
I hesitated but since I did not played coop on Castle Crashers, I wasn't sure it belonged to the list...
RailedRobin
It really really does ;)
ThisIsThePlaceWhereIBelong
later reminder for myself #9
PeculiarBaguette
You won't regret it.
ThisIsThePlaceWhereIBelong
That would be nice. I will probably test it next week.
bebopcolagood
Mercenary Kings!
ForsakenEostre
Me and @roserapaine spent entirely too much time trolling each other in Battleblock, and I loved every minute of it.
Zedhairy
Is that the gauntlet from Game Cube?? And of course it's not for Xbox one. +1 I'll have to check some of these out!!
PeculiarBaguette
I hope you'll these as much as I did ! :)
JumpBaconSpy
Actuallu, it got another remake, and is available on Steam for pc.
PeculiarBaguette
Exactlu.
caiuscassius
No shovel knight?
dbqpdbqp
maybe you're referring to the wii u version because the pc version has no coop :[
caiuscassius
OP didn't limit to only PC
dbqpdbqp
well considering all the links are to the steam store I just assumed OP meant PC
bhikku
the new gauntlet sucks ass, bring me a remake of the n64 version
Dunes8
It had a beefed up update awhile back. Better, but still missing something.
bhikku
i'll have to try it again, i hated it at launch
DagashiDreams
Hammerwatch should really be on that list, if you haven't played it yet you should.
PeculiarBaguette
I will :)
Nezumirogane
kinda plays like Gauntlet with a lot more AHGGGG.
tynansdtm
Dude, Spelunky is a reboot of the freeware original. Include this link too. http://spelunkyworld.com/original.html
PeculiarBaguette
Done !
BaronVonMadScience
A recent one for you OP: Factorio. Stranded on a planet, your only hope of leaving is to build your own rocket through automation. 1/2
SteveBuscemiSayingHowDoYouDoFellowKids
FACTORIO IS THE SHIT
BaronVonMadScience
Not very action-y, its all about solving logistic problems, resource and time management, and fending off hordes of alien beasts.
PeculiarBaguette
ouuuuuuuh will try !!
Raeilgunne
It is or was for a bit the highest rated game on steam, with a 99.7 something percent positive review rate.
cheeseyfighter
I love Factorio! A friend of mine and I just launched our first rocket! Can't wait for new content!
Aukido
No stardew valley? That game is life.
graerth
Doesn't have coop yet.
Aukido
He is currently in the process of adding it though. He never expected the game to take off like it did so he had to add it in after the fact
graerth
I know, which is why the "yet" in the end.
Bloberis
Look into Risk of Rain. Side scroller rogue like, hard as nails but tons of fun, a good amount of content, and coop gets insane
isthisagoodusernamequestionmark
only problem with RoR coop is if you're not the host, and you go through the extra levels where hundreds of mobs spawn your game will crash.
Brainsplosion
Love me some RoR, but I play it solo most of the time. I'm greedy with the items!
PeculiarBaguette
Will definitively try then, thanks !
Kayayayaya
Hard as nails until you pick up the Command artifact. Then you can make yourself hilariously overpowered.
Brainsplosion
Eon Altar(Phone controllers), Hammerwatch, Hero Siege, Relic Hunters Zero(FREE), Zombie Party, Zombie Vikings(CastleCrashersClone).
PeculiarBaguette
A...full list of games I haven't played yet ? Santa is that you ?
Brainsplosion
Along with most of your list, this is what my fiancee and I play on the weekends!
PeculiarBaguette
This is so cool, thanks a lot !
Brainsplosion
Just started Trine too. Oh and Warlocks VS Shadows isn't bad, bit repetitive but really fun classes.
Hamnurabi
You should look up "Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime" That'll test your relationship to the limits.
PeculiarBaguette
That's challenging ... will try thanks !
AFineDayForScience
GOD DAMMIT, GET TO THE SHIELD. NO, THE SHIELD. THE FUCKING SHIELD. Now we're dead. I hope you're happy
SmellyPotatoMan
And watch the Steam Train!!
c0nman
Check out Stardew Valley. It's $15 on Steam, and i've spent 112 hours in it already. Totally worth my money. 1 guy made it over 4 years
Sirrussel5
It's on my wish list, but I'm a poor person. Only heard of it through Starbound's news feed. Because Chucklefish, y'know.
koolidge16
YES. I love Stardew. I have 105 hours in it.
Ivesaidtoomuchalready
My boss asked why I was so cranky the other day and I told him I had been playing SV for 20 hours before work, he said "my roommate's been /
Ivesaidtoomuchalready
Playing that game non stop that's all he talks about" lol great game
PeculiarBaguette
Thanks I'll try this one as well !
Nezumirogane
It'll also be getting multiplayer eventually
Sirrussel5
You've probably heard of them, but if not, check out Terraria and Starbound.
JumpBaconSpy
'IT WAS LIKE POSIODEN OFFERED HIS HAND IN FRIENDSHIP, AND THEY SPAT IN HIS MOUTH.' God, I loved the cut scenes in battleblock.

Battleblock theater provides me with rich, buttery sustenance.

PSYCH!

YOU WERE POISONED? I WILL CALL HOSPITAL
JumpBaconSpy
OH BOY, YOU ARE ONE SPICY LITTLE FART.
clln86
Ok this just convinced me to get this game.
XaviersSnakeArm
I've had this game on Xbox for the past few months and never played it. Guess I gotta play it now.
Elwind
Stamper did an amazing job narrating that game.
JumpBaconSpy
Heck yea he did. At the last agdq, they had him on the phone while they were speed running the game. It was fantastic.
GRGJay
Wait really? I NEED TO FIND THIS. I fuckin' love Stamper.
JumpBaconSpy
Yea, and since they were doing 2p any%, he was joining with his in game voice of berating the players for not collecting.
SmokeyQuartz
Omg that sounds awesome. Got a YouTube link?
ShababaJoe
Check out divinity: original sin
GingerSwan
Isn't Chris Avellone working on the sequel?
KingseekerFrampt
I have way to many hours logged in that game. Me and my friend have beaten it twice and each play through takes about 60-80 hours.
PeculiarBaguette
Thanks for the advice :)
boredsandwich
You should really try it out, me and my BF enjoy the coop mode a lot! I think it's worth the money
FedericoAstica
I don't think that's an indie.
Kobalt187
It was a kickstarter
FedericoAstica
I know, but I wouldn't say a 1 million project is an indie game.
JimBeanious
Indie just means independent, which is exactly what kind of studio Larian is. They aren't funded by a publisher.
ShababaJoe
Fair enough, it's still a really fun coop game. I wouldn't count Larian among the big game developers though despite their success with this
FedericoAstica
I would add Rogue Legacy.
PeculiarBaguette
Loved it but no coop mode :)
FedericoAstica
I see you love coop :) I'm 35 and I don't have gaming friends so the lack of coop it's not an issue for me.
PeculiarBaguette
I understand this, meeting my fiancé, aka greatest gaming friend ever, changed my way of playing gmes, suddently making me like coop :)
FedericoAstica
I envy you! My wife doesn't care about games. Playing coop would've made our relationship much more entertaining.
PeculiarBaguette
(Did prev answer appeared?) Playing solo is also cool, and having so. to restrain you from playing too much might be useful sometimes :)
Nezumirogane
But the list is for coop...
FedericoAstica
Ooops, I didn't realize :p
Nezumirogane
You're alright. As I progressed down the comments, people kept naming more and more indie games that aren't co-op.
Ethus
Hate to tell you, gauntlet isn't indie. It's been around since the coin-op days. Source: me. I've wasted lots of money on it.
WaluigiInAWheelchair
Valkyrie, your life force is running out

Red Warrior needs food
thesaneusername
A gem.....yay...
SomethingWittyIDK
Elf shot the food
WhimsicalCalamari
Yeah wasn't there an NES version?
Idothechachalikeasissygirlilikadodachacha
Yes! My bro and I played the hell out of that game.
Kayayayaya
Dark Legacy on XBox was one of my favorite games to play with my friends as a kid.
uskglass
The studio that made the most recent incarnation is fairly small. I'd take it on a technicality. Also super fun.
saganworshipper
Oh, the hours and hours...
svga
"ahhhhhhhh the health actually drops with time!? put in another quarter!!! I need 100 more seconds of health points!!!"
ParkerAdderson
was totally disappointed in the new one. lacked all the character and fun of dark legacy
Makinbrosmadonimgurandnotgivingafuck
I read that and whispered to myself "it was one of the leading multiplayer games in the early 80's" then "fuck I'm old".
InfiniteSynapse
Yup. I played mine on Gamecube.
AnthonyBlumpkins
Yep, developed by Arrowhead and published by Warner Bros., making it not-indie. https://i.ytimg.com/vi/5cuzj7i1Whs/maxresdefault.jpg

My GF and I almost got sucked into Gauntlet Legends this past weekend. They had it at this minigolf place. Damn that ticking health!
realGeorgelucas
I've not seen such bravery!
Senisty
I've played it on the NES! I loved that game
EerieBarlow
Yellow wizard needs food badly.
Shadew
I NEED SUSTENANCE!
byohzzrd
Blue Valkyrie needs TO FUCKING STEP UP HER GAME. (First gaming argument w/ wife was over Gauntlet Legends)
ProPlum
You're thinking of the god-like Gauntlet Legends game. Gauntlet was made by an indie crew who drew inspiration from the original
PeculiarBaguette
Oooh you're totally right, my bad...!
LiquidPoo
And you forgot transistor
cosmicmatt
Also, How to survive is another great zombie co-op.
Cereaza
No, you are right OP. Gauntlet Legends and it's ilk were main stream. Gauntlet was made by indie devs as a spiritual successor to the former
PeculiarBaguette
:D liking this information.
Hetuni
You've gotta replace it, man, right here right now, put up a true eleventh!
