In case anyone hasn't seen the fantastic looking Gauntlet-like dungeon crawler, Hammerwatch, on Greenlight or something similar, here you go.
The beta's about 2 hours long in 2 player co-op if you use the Infinite Lives crutch and have room to screw up a lot. I don't know how long it would take without that crutch but I figure it'd be significantly longer since you would have to be a lot more careful and kite a lot more and whatnot.
You can't save either.
Anyways, it's pretty fun. Very Gauntlet-like, has a nice aesthetic, and it's got a lot of secrets, even in the beta. There isn't a whole lot of enemy variation yet but there's enough to get you through the 3 floors and the boss fight.
Enjoy!
EDIT: Oh, I've read there are some issues with online co-op. I wouldn't know, I played locally on a single computer. Just a warning that your mileage may vary.
