How co-op works

Two-player local campaign through side-scrolling stages, with random modifiers changing enemy spawns, player buffs, hazards, and screen effects between runs. Partners combine punches, throws, suplexes, special attacks, and temporary weapons to control each wave.

About this game

Coffee Crisis throws players into a heavy-metal-fueled alien invasion as baristas defending Earth with nothing but fists, weapons, and sheer attitude. This neo-rogue brawler blends classic side-scrolling beat-em-up combat with roguelike unpredictability, and it plays as true co-op from start to finish.

You punch, kick, and brawl through eight locations that range from your coffee shop headquarters to the outer reaches of space. Each run mixes up enemy waves and power-ups, keeping fights fresh and forcing you to adapt on the fly. The arcade-style action rewards coordination, especially when juggling crowds and bosses alongside a partner.

Coffee Crisis supports local couch co-op on a single screen, with full controller support and Steam Remote Play Together for online sessions. Runs are fast-paced and chaotic, making it a great fit for drop-in brawling sessions that lean heavily on teamwork and quick reflexes.
