Co-Optimus is a good resource for finding couch co-op games.

Some co-op games ones you might enjoy are Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime, Magicka, overcooked, hammerwatch, Trine, Rayman Legends or human fall flat.
There's also a really big back catalog of arcade or earlier console emulatable local multiplayer co-op games, many of which have gotten ports like Chronicles of Mystara or Gauntlet if you don't want to mess with emulation.
- NDizzle 6y agoYep, you mentioned a bunch of games that I have and forgot about.
- enchiridion 6y agoPortal 2
- egypturnash 6y agoDoesn't that require two machines and two screens? "Couch co-op" is for games that can be played with two or more people looking at the same screen, probably while sitting on the same couch.
- asadlionpk 6y agoI remember Portal 2 on Xbox360 was co-op split-screen.
- logicprog 6y agoRecently played couch coop split screen with P2 on an Xbox One. Still works! (:
- jamesgeck0 6y agoThe PC version initially appears to be LAN-only, but you can play split-screen using a console command.
- soulofmischief 6y agoIt's a little finicky but it works OK. Nothing that detracts from the experience once things are set up. The biggest issue is that only one XInput controller can work at a time, so you have to use something like JoyToKey to utilize a second controller unless one of you is okay with mouse and keyboard. Happy to save someone the headache if they need a JTK configuration.
- jmiskovic 6y agoI would add Castle Crashers and Spelunky as personal favorites.
- kipchak 6y agoAh, I meant to include Castle Crashers, good catch! I didn't know Spelunky has co-op, I'll have to give that a try.
- kungato 6y agoUnfortunately these and maybe 4 more games mentiones below are also almost the only coop games. Ive been trying to find good coop games for playing with my gf or family but the selection is small and especially if you want something for non gamer people. Split screen seems to be a thing of the past
- asdfasgasdgasdg 6y agoIt's not really that surprising a result, even if it is annoying in times like these. People don't make games for people who don't buy games. Where's the incentive to do so? The returns are almost certainly going to be bad by construction.
- SamPatt 6y agoUltimate Chicken Horse is great.
- bobthepanda 6y agoNintendo had a bunch, like Stretchers and Moving Out and Good Job. I can't speak to how good they are, though.
- nixpulvis 6y agoThe death of split screen games is a perfect embodiment of so many problems I see in the current era. Makes me feel like an old man, and I'm still in my 20s.
- pfisch 6y agoRoad redemption has 4 player split screen. It is like an updated version of road rash.
- cpv 6y agoThere's also this http://moveordiegame.com/ http://moveordiegame.com/ Not affiliated, seen the talk from GDC about it.
- logicprog 6y agoI've played Rayman, Lovers, and Overcooked. All a blast. I've also played Fall Flat, but that game is super annoying, I'd avoid it. Also, TowerFall Ascension is amazing as a coop game.
