Local multiplayer = LAN?

[supersmo]

Local multiplayer on Steam normally means "couch multiplayer" as in multiple players on one computer. From the description though it looks local is referring to LAN.

I'm a "couch multiplayer" gamer myself so I have to ask since the game looks really fun and original.
Are there plans for adding 4 player splitscreen?

Oh, I was not aware of that Local multiplayer could be interpreted as such a "couch multiplayer". It's good you ask!
But as you guessed correctly, local multiplayer means you can play the game in your local area network.

Nevertheless, the game totally suits for a couch/party like splitscreen, where you can play together on one screen, and thus it is definitely planned to be implemented.

Thanks so much for your interest! :)

Cool! Tracking the game in case splitscreen gets implemented :-)

Please tell us when this is implemented. I will change the game's category from 1 player to 4 players (I categorize regarding couch mode player quantity).

Thank you devs!

Still hoping for split screen but until then I recommend updating the categorization. Steam split the local multiplayer category into “shared/split screen” and “LAN multiplayer” and cube racer is currently categorized as “shared /split screen”.

It's late, it's 2020 now, but I feel like updating you guys here. We recently started working on Cube Racer 2, a more stable, more polished and complete successor to Cube Racer. And I'm happy to tell you, that splitscreen is already implemented and will be a key focus of the new game!

The single player campaign does not seem to work at all

I promised to follow up, so here we go. Yesterday we published our alpha version of Cube Racer 2 on Itch, before coming to Steam later this year. There is already splitscreen implemented and working, still with potential bugs, but feel free to seek and find them. If you wanna check it out, you can find it here https://creactstudios.itch.io/cube-racer-2
