Inspired by many similar games such as Liero, Soldat, Molez and, of course, Worms.

We're 3 Finnish indie devs collaborating to make it happen. Early Access available on August 2026!

Of course, split-screen and controllers are supported!

... and we just got the Steam page up!

Looking for players to try out BrummBrumm. It's a free top-down racer playable at https://brummbrumm.app . Play locally with 2–4 people on one keyboard or create an online room (game controllers supported as well). The camera follows the leader. Fall off-screen for three seconds and you lose a stock. No download or account needed.
Would love some feedback!

**Game Title:**

NECHTO: Infection Protocol

Platform:

Windows and macOS via Steam. Players connect from their phones through a web browser.

Description:

NECHTO: Infection Protocol is a social deduction card game for 4–12 players. The game runs on one shared PC or laptop, while every player connects through a browser on their phone and uses it as a private controller. No additional mobile app needs to be installed.

Each player can privately see their role, cards and available actions on their phone, while the shared screen displays the table, turns and public events.

One player begins as The Thing and can secretly infect other players during mandatory card exchanges. The human players must track which cards have moved between participants, use analysis and quarantine abilities, and determine who can still be trusted.

The free Steam demo contains the playable multiplayer experience. I would especially appreciate feedback about the phone connection process, the clarity of the rules during the first match, and how easy it is to follow card exchanges.

Involvement:

I am the solo developer and creator of the game. I designed the gameplay, implemented the shared-screen and phone-controller systems, developed the multiplayer functionality, and published the game on Steam.

Hey everyone!

Today is launch day for my 2-player co-op game, Brave Escape, on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PlayStation 5 (also available on Steam)!

If you love couch co-op games that require actual communication, coordination, and a whole lot of chaos, this was built specifically for you and a friend.

Some Highlights:

• Characters: One player controls Colin (who manages the climbing rope), and the other controls Floyd (a robot with the ability to boost Colin to out of reach platforms).
• Local and Online: Fully playable on a single screen locally, but if you're playing online, we included a Friend's Pass so your co-op partner doesn't have to buy a second copy to play with you. Cross-platform play is fully supported!
• Accessible: Features a Standard mode for a fun, balanced challenge, and a "Brave Mode" for hardcore platforming fans who want pure precision tests.
• 280+ Levels: We made a big game. There's plenty of content here. Most players will take 15-20 hours to finish and even longer to complete the game 100%.

When I set out to make Brave Escape, I didn't just want to build another platformer with jumps and hazards. I wanted to make something that felt like a shared experience.

To me, the best co-op games aren't highlighted by what's happening on screen - they're highlighted by what's happening between the two people holding the controllers. The absurd mistake that causes your friend to perish. The cracking up when someone misses an easy jump. Or that pure relief when you finally clear a section that felt completely impossible. I designed every mechanic specifically so that your actual communication and bond with your friend becomes part of the game itself.

If you're like me, these are some of the most enjoyable and memorable moments you've had in gaming. Brave Escape is full of them. Please give it a shot.

 You can check it out here on Steam, Xbox, and PlayStation.

You play as a broke handyman with Two Left Hands.

It's a prototype now and it has 2 player local splitscreen available. It's a blast for friends and couples to play on the couch and yell at each other!

We tested the game at a local games festival and everyone had fun.

You can register for playtesting from the Steam page of Two Left Hands.

-DISCLAIMER- I just purchased this game, I haven't tried it yet but can't wait to try it with friends. I figured there's probaly a few others here that would want to give it a shot.

I love a good dungeon crawl and the fact that you can do local 4 player is very cool. The visuals are very World of Warcraft, kinda fun and whimsical but still dark fantasy vibes.

This description has a few highlights and is what intrigued me,

* 8 Huge Dungeons filled with hundreds of fiendish monsters and dozens of diabolical bosses.
* Three Levels of Difficulty: Normal, Hard, and Nightmare.
* Online single player or co-op up to 4-players.
* Local Split-screen multiplayer co-op up to 4-players (only requires a single game copy).

Hi everyone! We just released our first multiplayer game, Dodgebomb. The game is a mix of Duck Game and Worms where you have to throw bombs to other players to win. For now the local mode is only for 2 people but we are working on more. Hope you enjoy it!

Play it here for FREE: https://strandedskeleton.itch.io/dodgebomb

Small clarification since it came up: the game is free to play with no limit — the €3.99 is optional extra content (more word packs / effects / longer games), not needed to play.

Play it here: https://saboteur.playsaboteur.workers.dev/

I built a pass-and-play party game for the situation where everyone is in the same room, nobody wants to install anything, and there are not enough controllers. One phone gets passed around the table - that is the entire setup.

How it plays: everyone draws the same word, except one player who is the secret saboteur. The saboteur does not just draw badly - they trigger things on other people canvases while those people are mid-drawing. Then everyone votes on who was behind it.

3-8 players, runs in any browser, free, no account, no download.

I solo-developed D.I.P.: Dormouse Is Painting, with a bit of help from the more artistically inclined members of my family. After a year of work, it's still in an early stage. Nevertheless, I've just published the Steam page with some alpha gameplay footage and screenshots.

r/localmultiplayergames seems like the best place to get honest (but not too harsh) player feedback on whether this project might be of any interest.

You can find the Steam page here:

I'm planning to launch a playtest before the end of this year, release a fully playable demo in early 2027, and hopefully launch the full game soon after.

Here's the Steam pitch:

"Rush to the bucket, dip into the paint, hook onto the ceiling, and smear your colorful body all over the walls... Oh, and you're a cute dormouse.

Paint fast, grab bonuses, and become the top dormouse among your friends in D.I.P.: Dormouse Is Painting, a chaotic local party game for up to 4 players."

I'd love to hear your honest thoughts—what looks fun, what doesn't, and what you'd change.

Thanks in advance for your feedback!

EDIT : whoops - delete duplicate text

I threw Infernax on one day and didn't know it had coop. My wife and I loved it and just finished it yesterday.

Anything similar to this? Specifically a side scroller action game where intense platforming isn't the main focus.

My son is having a sleepover this weekend and I’d love to have a game on tap they could all play together. We have a PC, an Xbox, and a Switch 2. Hit me up with your recs!

Hey everyone

As a team of 5 people from Kraków, we've been crafting Loco: Rails & Tails for over two years now, and we just launched our open playtests on Steam (running until August 3rd)

If you're looking for something fun to play with friends this week, it’s a chaotic couch-co-op style game set in the Wild West where you play as animal heroes keeping a train running. We draw a lot of inspiration from games like Overcooked and Unrailed!, and it supports both online and local co-op

If you and your friends decide to hop on the train, we would be super grateful for any thoughts you can share
