Machine Party, a recently released collection of brutal party games from developers GDeavid and Mike Klubnika, the creator of Buckshot Roulette and s.p.l.i.t., received an update, with version 2.0 introducing couch co-op.
The developers also announced that the game has sold over 1 million copies, thanking the community for their support.
Machine Party can now be played on a TV, allowing players to gather with controllers and enjoy the game together on the big screen. To access couch co-op, players need to connect up to four controllers, navigate to Local in the menu, and select either Original, Custom, or Arcade; once in the lobby screen, users can press any button on one of the controllers to join. The developers noted that one player can also use keyboard and mouse, so for a group of four, only three controllers would be needed.
