The latest Humble Indie Bundle makes it easy to get some Risk of Rain co-op games up and running. The metroidvania roguelike supports both local and online play for up to four people, and since one Bundle purchase nabs you four copies, you've got a ready-made party.
Think the only games that go on sale are single player? Ha, that's what you get for thinking! The Humble Weekly Bundle has rolled out a sale that features seven indie co-op games. Not just multiplayer, but co-op multiplayer!

Fun times were had by all and we've capture these precious moments for you to enjoy.
In this episode of Indie-Ana Co-Op, we are gaming with the developers at Hopoo Games, the creative team behind Risk of Rain.
