Wouldn't it be cool if you could play the game in split screen and challenging a friend to a duel? I know Trine managed to implement two mice in their game. Or perhaps a local or online set up? Just my two stones.

Hey! Yes, we have this and synchronized online multiplayer on our feature list. I have to say, some of those features might be difficulty to balance ;)

Well on 1 computer both use the same ship I guess, or maybe not. I guess most work goes into balancing. But that's really great to know. Will these things be added for free to the game in a patch or is it like *shiver* DLC?

Ha ha, it's funny should added a *shiver* to the DLC questions. On other forums, users were asking what we were going to do for DLC... and I said "what about including it as an update?"

If you can believe, some people like that... frankly, I see it more as an update for many reasons... ;)

Would really love to see any multiplayer in this game. It would make the game really perfect.

Are you planning on making it like beat hazard or other games where 2 or more ppl need to have the same song etc due to "copyright" and all that stuff? At least from legal point that would make sense.

Also would love to see maybe some sort of browser for the songs in the filter menu, since I have tons of different songs in 1 folder and would love to just go into there instead of searching each of them due to composer or album. (If there is such a feature then I really dumb and didn't notice it)

Wow, I am not getting notifications on forum messages that have responses. Sorry for the delay!

Yes, for the multiplayer feature (if/when we get time to get to it!!) we would HAVE to make sure the users have the same music... for very, VERY good legal reasons :).

The browser is on our feature list as well :)

Tyrian comes to mind, hence local multiplayer with ship split in 2 parts. Every player gets 2 guns :)

Would be a tad easier to pick up, but harder to evade.

This is more for an expansion though, mind you tyrian has different shotting modes and split/join ship for coop. Needn's be the same thing but is a nice idea.

Network coop could bring a lot of sync issues. Or maybe network competitive mode?

Yes, Network co-op also brings legal music sharing issues into play :) It's something we would have to have bullet-proof in terms of making sure the user had the same music, etc. That particular issue is very hard to get around, so this feature isn't quite as high on our list as others.....
