Hamachi might also work
Also is creating a multiplayer matchmaking system easy? Hell NO!
Try to add online to this game and see what you come up with....That's right I didn't think you could also.
Pixeljunk Shooter 2 has an online competitive mode however.
Q-Games added proper online multiplayer to Monsters, charged more for it, and people bought it. That they could not have taken the same route with this game is nonsense.
It is absurd to argue that a feature cannot be added to a game with more time, more staff, and more money than was needed to create the whole game from scratch in the first place. If what you really want to tell us is that Q-Games is bleeding money, laying off staff, and struggling to meet deadlines, let's hear it.
9€ is too much monkey-cash for me!
Bad Port, BAD BAD PORT!

Seriously, every game does not need online multiplayer. It's awesome as it is, really enjoying it.
So yes, it is "impossible" to add it later. Not impossible per se, but it would need much time, much work, and a lot lot, very lot of money to do that and maybe get something no one needs.
It is a Coop/Solo game. All Multiplayer games were local Multiplayer games in a distant past (remember the days on your SNES or Master System?I do). And i have to say, i prefer Local MP. Means i only need ONE Version of the game, ONE Account on Steam and also just ONE PC. Plug in two controllers and have fun is much easier, more comfortable and has many advantages. Online Coop has advantages too, but just if you want to play with people you dont know because you dont have one to play with, or the people you know are that far away you cant get local. Live with it. Its still a great game. Or buy a PS3 and get Shooter 2.
It's a basic Gravitar/Jetman shooter with a nice water-fire-gas mechanic and brilliant coop. I wonder if anyone defending what amounts to its omission has actually experienced the coop, or grasps why it is different from the basic game.
Pixeljunk games are among the few ever made in which coop is significantly more difficult than singleplayer NOT because of artificial changes a la Diablo/Borderlands, but because of how the presence of another player naturally affects the gameplay. This is especially true of Eden which also left out multiplayer.
If you want to tell me local mp only is fine for a PC, that is really no different from saying it's ok to leave local coop out of a console game, and require it to be played over the Internet. One of the biggest differences between the platforms is who we can most readily play with because of where the device usually resides in the home. SteamOS may change that. Thinly veiled snobbery won't, especially when that snobbery involves not owning a PS3 and keeping your gaming rig in a de facto man cave.
