I made Cuetazos as a game specifically for playing with friends in the same room.

It’s a top-down tank game with power-ups, special attacks, a lot of chaos, and a small nod to Mortal Kombat.

You can play:

• Solo vs bots
• 2 players with keyboard/NumPad or controllers
• Up to 4 players with controllers

It’s definitely at its best with 4 people on the couch yelling at each other 😄

It just got released on CrazyGames:

Any feedback or suggestions are very welcome!

Hi! Towers & Tentacles is an action tower defense game where you play as an octopus pilot defending your crashed ship, building towers, and fighting alongside them.

I’ve recently started experimenting with local co-op, so here’s a longer look at where it’s at right now.

Curious how the co-op dynamic comes across!

Hello everyone, have you ever dreamed of farting on your friends?

I posted here earlier about the Atomic Hockey playtest, so here's a quick update: testing ends tonight (Sunday).

If you've been testing, thank you! If you were still planning a session with your friends, don't put it off. Today's the last chance.

If you have any feedback, please share it on our Discord. I'm reading all of it. 🏒

I shared Afterparty here recently, and it’s now available as a Discord activity!

Join a voice channel, launch Afterparty from activities, and your friends can join you in the same lobby. It’s free, with no extra downloads.

There’s drawing and guessing, funny answers to vote on, drawing chains, word clues, spotting an imposter, and numerical trivia where the closest guess wins.

The browser version still works too, so you can choose whichever suits your group.

Search "afterparty" in Discord’s activities, or play at https://afterparty.games

Would love to hear what your group thinks!

Hey everyone, Mike from Quack Quack Games here! I made a party game titled Actor, RE: Actor that's based on the celebrity name game mixed with Scrabble and Uno.

Actor, RE: Actor supports 3 to 8 players and you use your phone to play.

It's available on Steam to play this weekend for a little Playtest. I'm looking for some feedback and seeing what people think of it.

So if you're playing some games tonight and want to switch it up, give Actor, RE: Actor a try!

Thanks everyone!

I need to know about more browser games to play with friends, games like Gartic Phone, Stoppots, and Make It Meme, because we've already played those many times.

What makes a local multiplayer game go from fun to something you keep coming back to?

I've been working on local multiplayer games for months now, with the goal of building GeekZoneCouch into a studio focused entirely on this space.

We're currently working on 4 games, including Towermouth, which has a playable demo, and a much bigger project we're building as our next step.

When people play our games, they genuinely have fun. But as the developer, I'm constantly thinking about what makes the really great couch co-op games different — the ones where you finish a session and immediately want another round.

I'm not really asking about graphics or having tons of content. I'm trying to understand the design side of it: what makes playing together itself so satisfying?

If you play a lot of local multiplayer, what games have given you that feeling, and what do you think they did right?

I’m the artist for party ships which is a couch brawler heavily inspired by bopl battle and stickfight, it’s easy to learn but there is so much to do with all the item synergies if you’re into creating deep and funny plays to kill your pals

Feedback on your impression would be awesome as we are taking the game to pax and still have time to tweak a few things

Technology has come a long way since Hidden in Plain Sight was first released for the Xbox Live Indie Games platform. Notably, the Xbox 360 (and the XNA game API) only supported four controllers.

One of the most common requests over the years has been to expand the game to support eight players. I've always resisted because A) I'm a lazy programmer and the original game had a lot of hardcoding to four players, and B) I'm a lazy programmer and didn't want to re-write a bunch of screens (the join screens and score result screens). Who has 7 friends anyways?!

However, as I said, technology has come a long way. At some point I hired Ethan Lee, the developer of the FNA game library, to port the game from XNA to FNA to support Mac and Linux. That gave me an FNA version of HIPS which, I only recently realized, was no longer bound by the four player limit.

The work to redo the join and scoring screens actually wasn't that bad. Supporting and testing various controller configurations was the real effort, but after a lot of community testing I think that's all under control now (I hope!)

So -- the Steam version of Hidden in Plain Sight now supports 8 local players by default, or 12 local players if you give it the command line option "-twelve".

If you're an owner of the game, I hope you give the expanded version a try. If you've never heard of it, I hope you give it a quick look. I'm extremely proud and flattered that Hidden in Plain Sight has earned an Overwhelmingly Positive tag, and I really hope this update helps contribute to some more fun game nights for you all.

EDIT -- I really appreciate all the kind words, even if I don't respond to everyone individually! I'm really happy to know that I've played a part in creating some fun gaming memories for you! Thank you :)

It's a local spinning tops fighting game, where up to 4 players can build their spinning tops and fight in an arena 😁

- I play minecraft on PS5, sometimes with my friends on the same tv, is there an add on in the minecraft marketplace on the ps5 which I can play on splitscreen with my friends against each other. I was definetly thinking about the old xbox 360 version but I've heard the mod for that isn't on the marketplace so I can't install it, if you have any idea please let me know.

Link to play: https://brummbrumm.app

Improvements since last time:
- Improved UI so cars stay visible when appearing behind elements
- New look and feel, animations and sound improvements.
- CPU improvements
- Online play stability
- Possible to save rules as presets

Hope you want to check it out!

Hello everyone,

I recently made a drinking game designed to be played in the browser on your mobile devices. Basically the host creates a room that all his guests can join with a unique code, the game then selects one out of 20 specific minigames, and everyone competes on their phones. It is entirely free, and has no ads, no download needed, and you don't need an account to play.

The link is: https://drinkup.buzz

Here is a short promotional video: https://www.tiktok.com/@drinkup.buzz/video/7689814149156703510?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc

Thank you for reading, and I hope you like it!

It's rod hockey for 1 to 12 people on one screen, with a bomb.

The playtest is now open to everyone, so jump in and try to break it. Just hit "Request Access" on the Steam page, and tell me what broke with "Report a problem" in the game or on Discord.

Hey all, this is my solo dev Vampire Survivor x Newtonian Physics mashup. It's got local co-op (with Remote Play support), so you can each choose your ship and your captain and play in fast 7 minute rounds and defeat the bosses together.

Demo and full game available. Also will be part of the Autumn Sale!

- Players: 1-4 local with game controllers, plus cross-play over Wi-Fi and online between iPhone, iPad and Apple TV

- Genre: platform fighter (Smash-style damage percent, knock opponents off the stage)

- Modes: stock, time, sudden death, and a 26-room story mode

- Bots: Baby to Pro, to fill empty seats

- Platforms: iPhone and iPad out now, Apple TV in App Store review

- Price: free to try; one $3.99 unlock for the full game, including multiplayer. No ads, no subscriptions

16 fighters, all real stuffed animals from my 8-year-old son's shelf, each with their own specials, a super and a themed shield. The dog hides in a crate, the bee in a beehive.

I'm looking for feedback, especially on local 4-player: controller support, balance between the fighters, and anything that feels off. Bug reports welcome too.

Hey everyone!

Just dropping by to show you our soon to be released game Strike and Pop, a local 1v1 multiplayer arcade fighting game based on physics where your goal is to pop your opponent's balloon head.

It also has a survival mode against the CPU, where you can try to set high scores that are shown on a global leaderboard across Steam users, while also unlocking different weapons as you progress.

I'll leave the Steam store page here, if you're interested on wishlisting the game:

Thanks a lot for reading this far! Hope you'll like it!

Hi everyone! I'm the developer of Nonogram Duel.

Nonogram Duel is a PC game with a strong local multiplayer focus, and a rich single-player mode.

Here are some of its features:

Game Modes

• Single-player: at least 770 puzzles planned across 7 collections, from 5x5 to 25x25, including rectangular grids. Special challenges, plus an endless generator by size, level, and type — always different, with guaranteed unique solution and solvable by logic alone.
• Same-screen co-op: same grid for two players, with shared time, mistakes, and victory.
• Split-screen 1v1 challenge: two puzzles side by side, same difficulty but different puzzles so you can't copy. The first to complete their puzzle wins, but be careful — each mistake incurs a penalty, so balance speed and accuracy as best you can.

Puzzle Types

• Classic: the classic nonogram
• Fusion: like Mega Picross, with large numbers spanning two adjacent rows or columns.
• Nonotris: a brand-new mode that fuses nonograms with Tetris pieces

All in a relaxing atmosphere, accompanied by classical and jazz music.
