So um guess what, we still don't have phones!
Hi Dream guys,

Could you have the game open up split windows? This way you don't have to reinvent the interface, have the control UI running across the bottom or even a pop out window.

Imagine if you show everyone's interface on screen at the same time. So you know what they are thinking about. It can be an interactive UI (for those who dont have phones) and also a UI display to enhance the social aspects on game night.

I do hope this is addressed, it would be a shame to lose so many potential players over such a simple issue.

Its okay to not be the target audience. 70% of the worlds population has a smartphone.

We shouldnt be pushing devs to change their vision of a game. Either you like it or you dont.

Like the type of gameplay, but I ain't buying a smartphone to play it.
Guess I'll just be skipping this one.

If a version of the game that doesn't require the use of a smartphone were available, why does the thought of this cause you such distress? We are curious to hear about how such an addition would negatively affect your life, and experiences with the game.

I'm with you, the gameplay looks promising and I'm on the same page about the smartphone thing. I'm not entirely convinced it's necessary. It would definitely be a hit if it included online multiplayer without needing a smartphone.

The concept behind promoting offline group play is cool, but I wonder if are we are ready for that on a global scale without incremental integration?

IF a version of the game that didnt require the use of it, i wouldnt have a problem with it.

Thats not the issue I have. The issue i have is people who see a game for what it is, and try and change it.

The game is fundamentally a couch co op. Sure steam has found ways to play couch co op games over the internet. But thats beside the point. The devs have a vision for their game. They made their game with that vision. And it works for what they wanted. Then people come in to try and bring their negativity to it to either try and get the devs to change it or push away others from playing it because they see the games community as a negative.

So simply put. If its not for you, thats fine. Find something for you. But stop trying to get the devs to align with what you want.

So we are cool? Accessibility isn't the issue?

Thing is, the first version could have smartphone only, and later after considerations an alternate could be collectively agreed on by the entire team.

Keep this in mind. A forum post could nudge it very slightly in one direction, but a forum post cannot literally mind control all the devs.

I totally agree. People pushing their ideas onto devs isn't cool. If they show up, lets remind them about that.

Totally. I wouldnt mind they add in an app for pcs to allow them to play without phone. or do what jackbox has with a browser option.

If you don't have a smartphone then don't play it. Lots of other games.

This smells like a flop incoming. Give me online coop with keyboard and mouse support... Otherwise this is not a game, I'll never use my phone like this crap.

Then you aren't the target audience. Bye.

No matter the genre/platform/features, there's someone showing up to QQ it dares to be that genre.

And no matter the genre/platform/features, you're entitled dirtstains for doing it.

On the ignore list it goes. Good luck to the devs.
