Secret of Mana-style co-op ARPG (not netplay)

[vico]

Hi!

I was wondering if someone did this (or even if this is possible to make) for MV.

Basically, a variaton of action battle system which each member of party can be controlled by different players. When the player 2 hits START (and there's more than one member in the party) the second member gets independent movement, and in the ARPG case it can be controlled to fight alongside the leader. Also if the player 3 press START and there is any more member available, he gets the third member in party and so on.

Obviously this only works on a PC (due to multiple controller support).

Here is the demonstration (2-player only):

That's a brilliant idea. I'm always down for on-the-same-couch multiplayer. It's a dying breed.

There's no plugins I know of that allow this, but there absolutely should be.
