I cannot recoocmend this game, at all. It's a twin stick shooter that doesn't use the second stick for shooting, just aiming... Enemies take way too much damage, objectives are extremely repetitive and dull(such as hold A button next to a radio tower to fill the meter or shoot a building for 4 mins, both while enemies spawn around the point). Seriously, it's clunky, awkward and bizzare for a twin stick shooter. Just buy any other twin stick shooter, it will be guaranteed better than this pill of junk.

This game is one of my favorites of all time! I love it so much! It gets very adictive and I'm sure that even more content will come as the game is under development. I have been waiting for this game to come out for months and have followed the Dev Diaries and Tweets too :D I can't recomend this game enough.

This Game Is Absolutly Amazing. The Style Of it is something that I havent seen before and its originaltity gets you hooked on it. I havent tried co-op yet but will in future. The only issue is that there is no way to exit the game,you have to tab out or open task manager to end it.

There are only so many games out there that make me wish I was back in the '80s. Through a fine combination of delicious satirical takes and edge-of-your-seat action (which is never predictable thanks to some particularly brilliant use of procedural generation), Tango Fiesta has me out in the garage trying to convert a burnt orange 1984 Ford Cortina into a time machine.
Oh the game? Yeah that's bloody fun too, especially when played with friends on the sofa or across the tubes of the internet.

1. Submerge Broforce in Nuclear Throne.
2. Dilute awesomeness with drunk icefishing physics.
3. Break until broken.

Today:
Give it a qualified Thumbs Up. It's a by-the-book arena twin-stick shooter a la Geometry Wars, made by a small studio. Solid mechanics. Crisp vector-based cell-shaded aesthetic looks alright but it's out of place in a contemporary game intent on exploiting '80s pop culture nostalgia.
Lingering concerns: frame stutters with a screen full of enemies, framerate drops with extended play (suggestive of a memory leak somewhere), texture flickering after an enemy's death is distracting, the coarse language detracts from the experience (think UnEpic, Kane and Lynch: Dead Men, Always Sometimes Monsters) rather than adding to the atmosphere and style (think The Darkness II, Spec Ops: The Line, Kane and Lynch 2, Far Cry 3).
Still, there's enough that's good here to keep Spilt Milk Studios on my radar.

BRO FARCE.
Having had some serious difficulties with running this during Early Access, both with the controls in local co-op and the game just straight up not working on my old computer (for a reason related to drive letters, I think?) I decided to come back to Tango Fiesta now that it was released.
It... uh. Bleh. Guns are really bad at describing what they do before you use them in a level, which is fantastic since they're all terrifically expensive and several of them are an incredible pain to unlock via any method except running around in circles killing easy enemies for an hour, since you need to get hundreds of thousands of points in a single run.
"But points! You get them by doing well!" Well, actually you don't get all that many by doing well, because you get points for killing enemies en masse, and you complete levels by ignoring most of the enemies and destroying the objectives, since enemies infinitely respawn and can be rather tough... especially enemy corporals, who sometimes take almost a full magazine, if not more, of your gun unloaded directly into their face to kill.
Between that and several glaring bugs still present in the launch version (enemies spawning or being knocked on top of walls in the Killionaire missions, a level of Bionic Cop that took me 5 tries arbitrarily deciding it would never end after I beat it) I wasn't really having that much fun with the game. Half of the bosses (Yatcha Queen, Ramishar) are interesting, but the others were just an exercise in running away from them in a straight line while shooting, and Ramishar's HP bar overstayed its welcome for me, a bit.
I unfortunately wasn't able to complete the game yet, having gotten bogged down in the final level set, Bionic Cop, but I don't think it would change my review much even if I manage to get through it next time I try. Ultimately, there's much better twin-stick shooters and better, uh, Broforces. Like Broforce.
EDIT: Tried once more, got through Bionic Cop 2, still not able to clear Bionic Cop 3. Guns still require me to farm 250+ enemy kills each. Got the last card, so done with this.

Great game! Very addictive and action-packed. It's a very fun and simple pick up and play shooter.
If you love 80s culture and video games like Commando, Ikari Warriors etc... and movies like Rambo, Commando and Predator this is great fun.

Haven't put a lot of time into this game yet, but the time I have has been a blast...both literally and metaphorically. It's full of great, familiar tropes and assorted shenanigans, and in general just something fun to mess about with in an arcade style top down shooter. The leaderboards can make for some fun and interesting competition between friends as well.

It was better when it was early access then the final game got worse and now it's crap. Enemies have too much health, weapons do too little damage, it's boring and tedious with no pay off. Devs are also smelly.

This is one of the worst twin stick shooters I have experienced on steam and its ratings reflect that. It is clunky with a terrible interface which can be important with all the control styles available to a controller supported game. The levels and objectives are unsophisticated, the "art style" looks to be made with paint and the narrative while understandably simple in a game called "Tango Fiesta" tries to insert humor, nearly always in vain. While any co-op game can be fun with friends, this one is hard to enjoy. Buyer beware.
