Multiplayer?
Anyone working on a multiplayer or know if the creators of the couple out there are putting it on workshop?

It's in the DLC. Only local though, you have to use external tools to share your screen and input over the internet.

Not so external when Steam, the platform the game is on already has that service. It's called Remote Play Together and works super well.

Any Steam functionality is still external from the game. Reminder that the game is also on GoG, and Downpour soon will be on consoles too. For the former you'll be forced to use another program like Parsec, for the latter you're out of luck, local only.

No, you can play the entire original 3 campaigns, with the jolly co-op mod that is no longer a mod but built into the DLC. It will not be coming to the workshop anymore, you have to buy the DLC to get it now.
If you do have the DLC, you go to the Rainworld Remix screen (the builtin mod manager) and enable jolly co-op. Then, as mentioned before, you use an external tool like Steam's Remote Play to connect your guest player(s) to your game and they control the other slugcats.

So. No arena mode then? I'm a little confused. Arena mode still exists but no multiplayer mod unless dlc is what your saying?

This is untrue as per the mod's creator's own words. Quote from the creator when a user asked why coop was now a "paid mod":

The mod is for a previous rain world version (v1.5), and it is still free! You can go to steam library, right click on Rain World, enable betas and switch to that version. Then you can play the original Jolly Co-op mod

The question is about the workshop. The 1.5 version doesn't have workshop integration, so your post is irrelevant. Co-op will not be coming to the workshop, as I said, so it is not untrue.

My apologies, allow me to be more specific:

Untrue. It is not "no longer a mod," it is still a mod (edit: for the older non-Downpour versions, to be more specific again). Although with this phrasing it's possible you meant it's no longer only a mod, which is somewhat true (technically, it still is, it simply comes with Downpour now).

Untrue, as per the creator's quote I mentioned in my last post.

You're correct, this mod is not coming to workshop; that being said, I don't consider my post to be irrelevant as I am correcting misleading statements that may lead OP to believe that he must purchase Downpour in order to get co-op in Rain World at all. That was the intention of my post.

I am having a lot of trouble with remote play, we all control the same character I was wondering if anyone has a fix?

We make sure that when we get in the host is controlling one player, then take turns selecting sluggos.

Hello fellow infinitesimals, in the time I have been vacant from this roiling mass of commune, I have become needlessly verbose over, in response to our esteemed vehement visage, Dobo, I believe that needlessly hanging on the precipice of indecision is highly inefficient and you should hastily attempt to recuperate any semblance of choice over such intrinsic matters.
