i don't see how you could have a 2-player on it, but yeah, that'd be good.

You can't really have a 2 player adventure game... I doesn't really work.

Actually yeah, it could sort of work.

Except, hwat if one person has an item needed to complete a challenge, and the other person is trying to do that challenge. And also, it would mean that every time one person completes a puzzle (e.g. gets abducted), the other player would have to go with them, even if they were in the wrong place, which wouldn't make sense.

No because they would be in other halves of the screen so like there would be one person on one side and the other on the other and there is one for each person who is playing. so actually that would be quite cool Cool

But I think ez2dance is saying that the 2 players should cooperate and go through the game together.

maybe it could be to see who gets the better time, like in super monkey ball, you know? you could make it so that when one gets abducted, the other has to 1) find an alternative or 2) the guy that gets there first has to wait until the other person gets there (because the ufo only abducts two people at a time). i'm sure there'd be some way for it to work...

oh, yeah, today's my b-day! Very Happy

Yes, except no. You see, not only would that not work because it's an adventure game, but the logistics just don't work. All of the action is live, you see, so I couldn't possibly draw that fast for two seperate screens....

Well, coop would be cool, but i think u should
consentrate on the game and not the players.
It would be a great idea for nr 2!!
