Hi, Playing Tachyon Project co-operatively can be a lot of fun but you need to have your friend at home with you to play it. That's ideal but not always the case.

Hi, Playing Tachyon Project co-operatively can be a lot of fun but you need to have your friend at home with you to play it. That's ideal but not always the case. Thanks to the wonderful people at Parsec it's now possible to play Tachyon Project online co-op. They have developed a free tool that makes this possible and it works pretty well! Parsec basically lets you stream a game, and have friends watch and play along with their own controllers... ok keyboard (but who plays a twin-stick shooter with the keyboard and the mouse, right? ;) ). The app is not only free, but very easy to set up and use:

Download the client from http://parsecgaming.com .
Run the app and create an account. Your friends need to do the same.
If you want to host the party, click "Add A Computer", and use your own computer or rent a cloud computer from Parsec.
To join a friend who's hosting, add them using their Parsec username, and request to Co-Play.
The host can now run Tachyon Project and the rest will be able to play as if they were sitting next to them!

If you have any issues with Parsec, jump on over to their Discord here. Cheers, Eduardo
