Couch Combat Beta
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
MUCH NEWER DEMO ON STEAM: Couch Combat on Steam
Couch Combat is a fun, frantic, Splitscreen FPS made specifically with PC players in mind! Easily play with up to 4 players locally using controllers. Featuring fast-paced movement, fun guns, a simple but appealing low-poly artstyle and loads more!
This game is still in active development, and this is a Beta / Demo for the final game. The final game will include much more content, polish and bugfixes. If you want to follow development of the game, then subscribe to my YouTube channel for devlogs.
There are probably bugs and lots of small issues in the game right now, its really helpful if you report them in the comments, but please keep in mind that its still in active development and there will be bugs.
REQUIRES AT LEAST 2 PLAYERS, ONE WITH A GAMEPAD!
READ CONTROLS BEFORE PLAYING!!!
Controls
Keyboard and Mouse on left, Gamepads on right !
- Move - WASD and Mouse / Left and Right Sticks
- Shoot - Left Click / Right Trigger
- Crouch - Left Control / X/ Square

How To Start
Run the executable after extracting the zip file. Then either press left click on the mouse if you want the first player to be keyboard and mouse, or the a button on the controller if you want the first player to be controller. Keep in mind that you will still have to use the mouse for menus (which I hope to change in the future) and that players 2 - 4 cannot use the keyboard and mouse, it must be the first player. After that, simply press a on the other controllers you wish to use and then go through the menu (press play, then arcade, then play again) and you will start the game!
Known Issues
- The melee knockback is super unpredictable.
- Weapon pickups will sometimes fall through the floor.
Goals and Plans
The game is in an early, but playable state. I have plans to add more content to the game, specifically as more settings, stages, guns, mechanics and gamemodes. Some Ideas I have are:
- A Halo-style arena mode with game types like capture the flag and free for all.
- An Outrun themed area with wall running and portals.
- A lot more customization and settings to make the experience more customizable and accessible.
0.6 Changelog
- New Main Menu, this one looks much nicer and actually works!
- 2 New Oriental stages plus a slight overhaul to the looks of all of them
- Player Customization - Choose between 10 colors and 2 hats for your players!
- 3rd Person Player Model Improvements - Now featuring a new model, actual arms and new animations
- Settings Menu Overhaul, adjust your sensitivity in the glorious new settings menu
- A New Gun - The Burst AR
- TONS of bugfixing - you can no longer punch while dead, the main menu's scripts have been cleaned up, you can no longer get infinite kills by shooting corpses, and many more exciting non-features!

hey. when i play the game with my friens and we use a ps4 controller, you couldnt use the stick to move the camera. is it because its made for xbox controllers? im just curious (sorry for my bad english)
Hey, the new version on steam is great and much more polished. However, after a certain amount of games, the screen becomes black and stops loading the levels. Could you fix this?
Yes, i agree, that version is better than this one, but i have the same issue, after i won the western map i get a black screen. I had to quit the game with alt+f4. Anyway i know it's a early access version. Feels good the playability.
this game,is a masterpiece!
Bug: If You Press W Or Thumbstick In Any Direction You Cant Move For A Few Seconds
Overall Though Pretty Fun And Cant Wait For The Steam Release
none of the words or any thing that letters dont show up to me i dont even know were settings are
Controller(PS4) not connecting to the game.
I love this game but I found some bugs in the game. 1 you can grab guns from very faraway. 2 my character when my playing on controller doesn't stop walking.3 when you slide his pistoles isn't attached to his hand.
I really like this game, but when I play on controller, my view slides to the right sometimes. If you could look into that that would be awesome! I am really excited for what you will add in the future!
hey, video setting show nothing. My pc is bad and I'm on Arch Linux, so the problem is one of these I guess
Hey, that's actually not a bug, I just haven't implemented a lot of the settings yet, I hope to get them in soon though, did you notice any other bugs with the Linux version? I can't personally test it so any feedback is helpful
The game is too slow for me, so I can't play :/
When you add video settings I will play and report any bugs
You should make a single player vs bots version :)
I aggre! Or maybe make it possible to play multiplayer with friends cause i dont have a controller so i cant play :(
does this have single player or do i need friend?
you need a friend
Im having a problem were every time i connect a controller and get into a game the controller players camera always starts spinning and look up and to move the camera i need to hold the bumpers
it says there's a danger about it but still keep on going
I need help, with both keyboard and controller, whenever i say what i want to use, it just stops. im forced to look at a orange dude sitting on a couch. what do i do
me too!!!
Came here from ur vids! Great game!
