Because I possess the same amount of patience as that of a child, I decided to ask Michael Mellor, animator and AI programmer at Endnight Games, about the progress they’ve made on adding co-op to their open-world survival horror game The Forest. They confirmed it awhile back, but until now, we had no idea when it’d arrive. According to Mellor, co-op will be implemented in the next patch, assuming “nothing goes horribly wrong in the next few days.”
Making video games is tough, and that’s especially true for indie developers with small teams and limited resources. There’s a chance co-op won’t be ready in time for the next patch, but if it does, I know what David and I are playing next on our YouTube channel.
