Currently, it works exactly as if you connected up to 4 controllers - they all see the same thing, but I believe a different camera for every person is a planed feature.

I outlined my ideas for online multiplayer in this post on this topic!

I’m posting this here because the other topic is now kind of… obscure…

Can each player has their own screen? I mean if its a big tilemap, each player can see the place they want!

@LonglinhXuhere that’s planned for a future release! Today there is only one camera

Here’s another multiplayer game I threw together for the splatoon fans:

Controls are left+right to turn, up+down to move, and A to fire

Yehey

Really?
Cool!

(POV I’m a huge splatoon fan)

I know what I’m gonna be playing for about a year.

Lol I found this game just now after making my own splatoon-like game a couple of weeks ago for mini game jam #5. Cool game nonetheless!

is there a way for us to use this as blocks or no

Read the main post for directions on how to use this. It is not an extension, it is built into (I think the beta version of) Arcade.

Hi @Purp13, we’re releasing a new build of Arcade soon (today, if all goes well!) that includes a new built-in extension for Multiplayer. It is available to try in beta, but that version is missing a few recent fixes.

@richard you should make a setting in the hosting game place so that if you want you can make a two player game splitscreen like the other extension
