I'd go for a vertical split then.
Everything is a little bit closer and clearer.
Plus, you'll have your players stood side-by-side, so they know straight away who is on which screen.
Yeah good point, I think I'm going to stick to vertical for PAX at least.
or 4 player please. Are you planning on eventually trying to get this on Xbox too because I'd totally buy it and my blockland friends and I could play when they come over
The end goal is 4 player split screen, or depending on how the game goes 4 players sharing a screen.
In the current state of the game the inventory management has been simplified so much that 4 players could share a screen and be fine.
The only problem then is how to convey some of the more advanced information, like shield/strength/hp and what not.
