Description:

This mod makes Jacob and Esau enjoyable to play.

Features
  • Control Jacob and Esau independently, simultaneously!
  • Use movement keys to move Jacob, and firing keys to move Esau!
  • Watch as Jacob and Esau fire automatically at your enemies!
  • Manually command their targeting with the drop input, or the shift keys on keyboard!
  • Experience a brand new Birthright taking full advantage of their new independence!
  • Customize them with an in-game menu (press C or click the joystick!)
  • Breaks horribly on AB+!
  • and more!

Credits

DeadInfinity – The mod
Ikaruga (through Sbody2) – The idea for J+E’s new Birthright
Sodom & Gomorrah – Inspiration for two characters controlled w/ different keys.
Team Folio – Testing, feedback, generally being rad.
Melon – Earning ages worth of respect for good will, hard work, and brilliant thinking that made the idea worth trying.
Maria – "Was There"

Unintended Features
  • The API doesn’t provide a way to prevent the drop input from freezing Esau in place. If you’re on keyboard, you can use the shift keys instead to avoid this. If not, sorry!
  • The Mines escape sequence disables Marked. This means you have to manually command Jacob and Esau to shoot, via the drop input or the shift keys, which is a little inconvenient.
  • Red Bombs must be thrown with the drop input or shift keys.
  • This mod uses the MC_PRE_PLAYER_COLLISION callback, which is currently broken in the API and can only be used by one mod at a time. You can get around this with Mod Compatibility Hack.
