Good for 4 players?
I understand this has 4 player local coop, but does it make good use of it? Will one or two people be needed for solving puzzles while the others sit around, or is everyone important and necessary to success?

Is 4 player support limited to party mode, or does it work for the story mode too?

Hey Pirateguybrush,
The four player levels require all players to communicate together to work towards the solution, and as the four player puzzles get tougher you also get the bonus of four minds to see a solution. There are no levels in any mode that allow any players to stand still or do nothing to progress.

The story mode (red & blue two-player maps) is only for two people (or solo).

You can also play the four-player maps with two players controlling two each, or with three people (one bot, one bot, two bots).

Technically you can even play the four-player maps solo via triggers, but that's the super high coordination mode and MUCH harder than co op.

Nice to know, this allows me to at least somehow play this game while trying to figure out solo 65.
Already at lv 10

We have a slight issue with level 65 on some PCs with the physics. try down rezzing to see if that helps for that level. Patch coming soon

Approval happened today! They are processing so I hope < 48 hrs!

Nice. Btw i seemingly kinda got through 65 last night, but honestly this is an approach you usually wouldn't think of because a) you are probably close enough of throwing red down and b) you are dying but apparently have enough time on the circle to have the lv cleared.

But Nintendo sure took their time
