Split screen local co-op?
I'm wondering if there's a way to play this local co-op with splitscreen. I've got my set up to span across multiple monitors and we really enjoy playing split screen games this way.

Sorry, there is currently no way to play local splitscreen co-op :(

I think there's a workshop mod for Don't Starve that allows for local coop. It's not in this beta though, only in the main game.

Perhaps you can start multiple instances of the DST client and move them to your individual monitors. Not exactly split screen, but it works.

No local co-op, but like binary said you could try having mutliple accounts play on the same computer. Not sure how well that'd work though, because I'm sure some keybinds would conflict. There is also no controller support, so you would have to use mouse and keyboard.

What? Don't Starve has full controller support.

Not for Don't Starve Together.
Regular DS does have controller support, but as far as I'm aware DST does not.
If the OP goes with starting DST clients in individual monitors, they won't have controller support so all players would still have to use the same keyboard.

Will there be split screen support in the future, I wonder? I can't believe they would make a game called "Dont Starve Together" and not offer local co-op...

I also want this feature very badly. The game looks fun, but I originally bought it thinking it would be a local coop game considering the art style and all. It just makes sense to give us split-screen play or controller support for 2 instances of the game.

There's an optimal controller support, I play this game only with a joystick, and I can navigate all the game whit that
