How to fix infinite loading in co-op game? [decision]

[nickanvar]

Hi everyone!
Ok, we with my friend met annoying trouble with loading black screen (with skull). It was so long, probably infinitely.
What we tried:
1. OFC, we tried to restart and to reload steam and game, checked files of game etc.
2. We tried to exchange our saves between us. (we still haven't figured out how to do it)
3. We started the new game and, of course, in middle game we were meet this sh~t again.

What helped:
I have xbox-pad from Logitech, my friend - from Microsoft. At loading screen (after you to start the game), just to disconnect your gamepad.
Game wll ask you return it. Connect it again. And instead loading screen (after 5 sec timer) you will have new window from game with question: what control you need (gamepad or mouse?). Just to select gamepad (Press A) and keep going your adventure in Little Hope.

I hope (a little) it helps.

We are currently still playing the game and we had the same issue. One of us could move, other couldn't. What helped for us, is the other player reached an area, where a cutscene got triggered and we got through like that. We couldn't do anything else there. If the method above won't work somehow, try keep playing the game with the other player. I hope I gave... little hope.

Shoutout to nick for the discovery tho.

This solution works for me and my friend too, disconnect the controller after the countdown of READY screen, game will ask for reconnect the controller, and prompt the pause screen, select Continue and the prompt of Confirmation of which controller are you using will appear, Finally the game starts normaly. I will contact with support for a fix for this problem. Thx to nickanvar
