Broforce Lite 0.6 — multiplayer

New: multiplayer (up to 4 players)

  • Title menu > MULTIPLAYER > Host game / Join game. The join screen lists the games found on the network with their player count; a game already under way shows IN PROGRESS and can still be joined while there is room.
  • Local WiFi (all consoles on the same network) or Hotspot (a Miyoo Mini+ under Onion creates its own WiFi, its name and password are shown on screen; the other consoles join it in their system settings first. A muOS console can join a hotspot but cannot create one).
  • No friendly fire. The more bros, the more soldiers (+50 % per extra player, bosses get tougher too). One shared pool of lives for the team: freed prisoners add a bro to it. The level ends as soon as one living bro reaches the helicopter.
  • The host runs the whole game, the other consoles send their buttons and display what the host sends. Everybody must run the same version.
  • Not tested on real consoles yet: bug reports welcome!

muOS build (Anbernic RG35XX Plus and similar)

  • Separate download broforcelite_muos_v0.6.zip (aarch64, SDL2, gamepad support, optional vibration). Extract at the root of the SD card; see README_MUOS.txt inside.

Controls and movement

  • A single press walks, a double tap left/right runs.
  • Fixed a bug where the hero kept accelerating while a direction was held. Jumps are shorter than before: run to clear big gaps.
  • After a death, the next bro is never the one who just died.
  • In the air, hold DOWN to shoot downward.

Bosses

  • Last boss was reviewed to no longer pass through walls

Installation

Download the zip according to your console, unzip it to the root of your SD
