Gobby Run - Harder With Friends!

***IMPORTANT EDIT***: The developer has updated the multiplayer respawn mechanic and even though it helps, it didn't tackle the core issue I was talking about. Since this decision comes from a game design perspective from the developer I cannot fault it, but I cannot in good faith recommend this game either. Right now you have 3 tries to get from a checkpoint to the next checkpoint, if you fail you will have to start from where you fall to (probably the begginning). I wouldn't have a problem with this mechanic being in singleplayer, but having to either be your friend's "respawn button" by staying still in a checkpoint waiting for him to beat the stage and respawning him every time he falls or ignoring your friend and essentially playing single player in a multiplayer lobby don't seem fun choices to me. I have beaten the game with Cheat Engine freezing the lives (git gud) to have infinite self respawning. This way even if my friend is trying a previous section of the climb I can goof around on the next sections, go for collectibles or just be an annoyance to him (things I consider fun, since this game includes a kick and fart button to grief other players which in a limited life setting you would never use, personally ofc). TLDR; I had a lot of fun playing this game with my friend, but since I had to resort to cheating and wouldn't have played it otherwise, I cannot recommend this game. Maybe if you like extremely punishing experiences or don't mind being your friend's respawn button and staying still, you could very much enjoy this game. Shoutout to the dev again for being receptive about feedback! :) --ORIGINAL REVIEW-- Fun concept, like Chained Together, but completely unplayable with friends. The checkpoint system is completely broken, the way they work in multiplayer is, once you are in a checkpoint, you can respawn your friend IF they have already reached it. So you need to take turns trying to reach a checkpoint since if you both fall you have to start from the begginning again. This isn't harder difficulty, it's boring and borderline unplayable. If they fix this and make them work like singleplayer this game could be worth playing, but for now DO NOT BUY THIS GAME IF YOU ARE GOING TO PLAY IT WITH A FRIEND. PS: The Unreal commands like Fly or Ghost don't work either here
