Stranded Deep

0.50.00 EXP. BUILD! NEW SPLIT-SCREEN COOPERATIVE MODE!



Hi everyone,

A new experimental build (0.50.00) is now live!



We’re super excited to release a split-screen cooperative game mode for Stranded Deep. In the last decade or so, games featuring split-screen coop have been slowly dying out giving way to online coop. While both are great, While testing, we found SD was a great fit for couch coop. A lot of fun, natural gameplay evolved.

There is one thing to note about system specs: memory and processor requirements are increased due to two players being able to visit seperate areas at once. We don’t have official specs yet, but keep this in mind if you’re on the lower end of the specs.

Stay Alive!
