I had a dream I was a vigilant sidekick... And now you can be one too. Join a buddy and help him fight crime in the streets together. We have implemented the first iteration of local co-op with the intention of also allowing players to play through Remote Play Together!
You (or your friend if using Remote Play Together) must have a controller. One player can play on the keyboard while the other plays on the controller. Pressing F2 will make "P2" use keyboard, likewise pressing "select" (PS) or "back" (Xbox) button on the controller should tell the game P2 will be using that controller.
Change List

Added local co-op for "single player" mode.
Added projection shadow to help show where player will land.
Bandit now looks where he's going.
Added further graphic options to enable/disable post-processing effects.
New main menu UI.
All new animated intro sequence.
Effects are now pooled in order to reduce instancing performance issue.
