8-Bit Commando is a run and gun platformer with fast-paced action, a rocking soundtrack, local multiplayer and explosions. The graphics will take you back to the classic age of gaming and the gameplay is bound to challenge even the most seasoned vets.
It's official - the online multiplayer beta is up and running! You can start up a multiplayer session by choosing “Online” from the title screen.
Next, pick your favorite game mode (coop/versus/arcade) and invite somebody. Make sure you are signed into “Steam chat” to see which of your friends are playing too.
Lastly, there are a few things that you can do to improve your online experience:
- Play with friends who live nearby, preferably on the same continent.
- Plug into a wired connection or at least try to stay close to your wireless router.
- Close any open applications or background services connected to the internet.
- Turn off other devices connected to your home network or WIFI.
If you are having trouble please get in touch and remember to enable automatic updates for both your Steam client and the game. Thanks for reading and much LÖVE!

Is there gonna be a linux version?
lots of Desura Games have linux versions!
Maybe at some point in the future. Right now we are porting our engine to iOS.
I would definitely buy a Linux version of this game.
Me too.
looks more 16 bit than 8 bit to me...
if it was 16 bit it wouldnt look that much of a 8bit so its 8bit lol.
Keep up the good work with the game tracking!

great! It reminds me old good 8 bit games.... on my NES or Dendy....
I like this low bit music and old style graphic!
The only thing here is this game reminds me about CONTRA series - but they were too hardcore - here are about 10 lives but in CONTRA was only3!
remind me of Contra and TMNT :D
Would it be possible for a multiplayer video? I'm imagining it's co-op, but still, I'm curious.
Yep, there's a co-op mode too. I should have added some footage to the gameplay video but forgot.
