Co-op: Hosting a Game and Friends can join

[GOLDI]

I want to play co-op with my buddy. A host started game with savegame selection would put more life into it. Maybe one person can join first. Is that difficult to implement?

In the pinned FAQ from the devs at the top of the discussion threads, they answered that question like this:

Will it have multiplayer co-op mode?
The early access won't have a co-op mode. This is extremely difficult to do for a small team like us, and is prone to a lot of bugs. If the game is well receive, there's a small chance we try to implement it.

well they could just grab some code online and slap it onto the game BUT that would be incredible buggy and very unreliable so it's not difficulty to implement it's just incredible difficulty to implement properly and because the game hasn't been made with co-op in mind the process would likely require either a full code rework or a partial code rework which is a very heavy undertaking for what i think is 2 devs add ontop of the fact that adding co-op is like adding a entire bit of new content since you need to make character models code player interaction/animations and possible ways for players to interact with each-other in-game and then add ontop of that some players won't even use the co-op mode where as everybody who's still interested in the game would play new content the entire process just isn't worth it.

and then there the fact that adding co-op could burn the devs out or make the game go into a drought of no updates for years i'v seen a crap ton of games that got suggestion from players to add co-op and a alpha comes out for it or they say their going to add it then the devs just dissapear either for just a year or two to actually fully implement it since it can take that long in some cases especially if your solo dev or because they got so burnt out adding it they just gave up and in some cases they lack the money to go on after trying to add something for so long and because of the drought of updates people stopped buying the game anymore basically if you haven't planned to add co-op adding it later could very well burn you out if your not prepared or plan accordingly or the other bad stuff could happen which if you didn't plan on adding it to begin with and only got many suggestion for it then you wouldn't have a plan for adding it which then leads to this.

so adding co-op properly without previously planning for it is a very difficulty thing to do mentally and physical.

Another redundant I want coop post from somebody that can't be bothered to read the pinned FAQs or even worse, has read them but won't accept it.
