My younger cousin comes over today (like every few months) and we will be playing some couch coop games over the weekend.

So far we tried a lot of games and found some great ones along the way. Sidescrollers work sometimes, but third person and isometric is better. And I won't touch another twin stick shooter haha. Do y'all have any suggestions, it's always so much work to find a good new game (as opposed to just going after steam review, buying, and returning within 30min of playtime because it sucked).

Honorable mentions:

  • Swords of Ditto (literally no one plays this, but it's a pretty neat co-op zelda-like
  • Darksiders Genesis (hack n slash)
  • It takes Two (co-op puzzle)
  • Children of Morta (great roguelite)

I also bought Secret of Mana, maybe we'll play this.

If you wanna go retro at all you should check out UFO50. 50 very old school style games, many of which have 2 player modes.

Oh this is so cool, I think I'll buy it regardless of if we co-op anything within.

Second, UFO 50 is amazing!
