Other consoles might be similar, so if you have any trouble just try reconnecting the controllers to see. Once you boot back into the game it will make you repeat this, but will then securely assign the controllers to the individual PHOG head. For example, on Switch you might need to reconnect the controllers by going Home and choosing the Controller menu then recoonecting them. In testing this for our review there were some issues on occasion though. Once in the game, one controller should handle Blue’s movement while the other should handle Red’s. Choosing two controllers will either prompt you to connect another controller or move you right along if one is already available. This is where you can decide if you’re playing by yourself or via local co-op. When you first boot it up PHOGS! will ask if you’re playing with one controller or two. The dedicated server component can be run as a Windows service using FireDaemon Pro, which allows you to start the dedicated server automatically at boot prior to login, start multiple instances of the dedicated server.

If you’re going the local route then the solution is pretty simple. Sven Co-op is a first-person co-operative action game. And hell, even if your quarantine partner is right there you might not know how to play co-op with friends in PHOGS! We’re here to show you how to do it locally and online.

But in the current times, when social interaction should be done at a solid six foot range, sitting on a couch together can be tough. This is a co-op game through and through, so if you have a friend you’ll want to bring them along for the adventure. While playing PHOGS! by yourself is totally possible, it’s definitely not the intended way to play.
