Local Multiplayer

Local Multiplayer

I'm excited to share that local multiplayer with up to 4 players has now been implemented and it's already available in the demo that you can still play for free! Players can play using controllers and/or keyboard, and there is a keyboard-sharing feature so two players can play using the left/right sides of the keyboard like in the good old days :)

In this video, one of the playtesters (thanks Jisilra!) is playing a two-player game and together they reach the first boss encounter! The camera smoothly frames all players up to a certain distance by zooming in and out, and I'm happy local multiplayer is working well.

If one or more players die, they will respawn when a surviving player reaches a bridge so the game isn't over until it's over. As long as one player is still alive, there's always hope!

The local stats take the number of players into account and all stats are summarized based on the number of players. The Steam achievements and leaderboards are only based on single-player stats though.

New Bridges and Level Art

The new bridges are also in the game so reaching a bridge will always look fresh and recognizable. The new suspension bridge is my favorite so that became the first bridge to cross!

With the new art, I also reworked the menu to make it a little bit more cozy!

Play The Free Demo

The DEMO is still available as a FREE download, so enjoy playing the game and see if you can defeat the boss to complete the demo!
