A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

Final version released!

Tied Rivals is a cooperative puzzle/platform game where two rival warriors are cursed by a demon, who decides to tie them with a rope. Their fate now is to collaborate to reach the treasure and break the curse, beyond rivalry.

This is a cooperative game, play with a friend for a better experience!


What's new for the beta version?

Thanks to your feedbacks, we improved many aspects of the game

  • Rope Update: stronger, harder to break and extremely *glowy*
  • More tutorials and in-level controls, for those who got lost on their last journey
  • Improved UI
  • We also implemented a new mechanic: attach your character to the hooks and let the other one swing

What's new for the final version?

  • Updated jump mechanics
  • The game is now fully playable with two joypads. If any of the players is using a PS4 Dualshock controller directly connected to your PC, please check the related box in the controls options menu.

Tip: For anyone who wants to play with someone else remotely there is a software called Parsec that allows a remote player to watch the partner screen in streaming and also to access the keyboard.

We hope you have fun playing Tied Rivals!
