Not Dying Today is a side-scrolling beat them-up game developed by 9TH.Art and published by Forever Entertainment S.A. The game give is classic feeling but with modern graphics. The game can be played solo or co-op to up to four players. The game has three modes: Story, Boss Arena and Endless Mode. The Story mode has 8 chapters and 4 difficulties. Boss Arena has four stages and Endless Mode is self-explanatory. For the Boss Arena and Endless Mode there are leaderboards avaible for both single player and co-op.

There is a level system. Which each level increase you gain points to spend in your attributes: Power, Life, Agility and Luck. Life gives you more hit points and Luck better critical chance with both melee and ranged weapon. Except those bonuses your attributes will give you more damage to the weapon based on what attributes the weapons will use. The level is shared for all the modes. You don't start from 0 if go to Endless Mode after Story Mode or vice-versa.

During your progress through Story Mode you unlock 11 aditional melee weapons and 8 ranged weapons. From the begining you have access to all 8 auxiliary weapons but the game gives for free just two of them so you'll need to buy to access the others. There is also an upgrade system for the melee and ranged weapon, they can be upgrade 8 times and the price differens from weapon to weapon.

The sound isn't too bad, but it can become annoying on more retries on the boss level during Story Mode.

If you are interested in this aspect the both features both trading cards and achievement.

A small side note: I checked the box for receiving the product for free because I got the game from a giveaway from Forever Entertainment on their social media. The copy wasn't given for review purposes, it was a normal giveaway like they do periodically so go and follow them on social medias for your chance of free games :P .
