Legion of the Damned

A sideways scrolling game created with the Shoot 'Em Up Construction Kit, similar in feel to Golden Axe and a very good game. The plot is very simple: a horde of undead abominations have overrun a peaceful village, and two wandering heroes-for-hire have come along to slaughter them all and restore peace (hopefully). Player one is the Amazon (with rapid short-range sword attack) and player two is the barbarian (with a slightly underpowered but long-range throwing axe attack ... for which cowardice he is further penalized by starting the game with fewer lives). A less buggy Enhanced version was later released.
