Co-op mod?

[Ridley12, Knight of God]

I have low expectations, but would it be possible to mod the game to include 2-player co-op? And if so, how difficult would it be to implement said mod?

My uninformed opinion would put it somewhere between "very difficult" and "next to impossible" (I'm not going to say that it would be impossible, but it may very well be).

To start with, there is presumably no networking code in the game to handle connecting two players. The only "multi-player" aspect to this game is the Martian Games, where the game just shows the progress of the other players. You don't actually connect to them in any way. And then there's adding co-op mechanics to the basic gameplay (players taking turns or splitting the map, or however you want to handle that; and so on).

If you really want co-op, some of the other Bloons games have it.

Yeah, that's fair.
