A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

This is an older version of Couch Combat, I'm leaving it up because it can be nice to have older versions of game available.  You can get the newest version here: 

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 nice 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 a few known issues with the game at the time of this release, I am working on fixing them, so take that into consideration. But any bug reports or suggestions are welcome!

REQUIRES AT LEAST 2 PLAYERS, ONE WITH A GAMEPAD!

READ CONTROLS BEFORE PLAYING!!!

Controls

Keyboard and Mouse on left (1st player) Gamepads on right (2 - 4 players)

  • Move - WASD and Mouse / Left and Right Sticks
  • Shoot - Left Click  / Right Trigger
  • Crouch - Left Control /  X/  Square
  • Jump - Space / A /  X
  • Reload - R / B/ Circle
  • Pickup Weapon - Right Click (Keyboard)/Y (Xbox) / Triangle (PS)
  • Drop Weapon -  F/ Left Bumper
  • TAB - Pause Menu

How to Play

On the start screen, player one needs to either left click for keyboard or click a to use a controller. The keyboard can only be used as player one. Press A on the gamepad to join for other players. If you have at least 2 players, you can continue. Pressing play will begin the game, the goal of the game is to just kill the other players. You have to pickup guns that spawn around the stage in order to do this. The guns spawn at random, and some are more powerful. The last player standing wins!

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.
  • Melee combat and weapons.
  • A throwable system with grenades and other interesting things (a teleportation beacon, graphing hook, crab Frisbee) 
  • A lot more customization and settings to make the experience more customizable and accessible.

0.45 Changelog

  • All weapon animations have been redone from scratch!
  • New gun: The AK47
  • A pause menu
  • A basic settings menu
  • Settings for x and y sensitivity, as well as a mute setting
  • Removed the third stage because its bad
  • TONS of bugfixes
  • The uzi was nerfed and the shotgun was buffed
  • And probably more stuff that I forgot about!

I really like the game! I played a lot of with my brother! My only problem is that the sensitivity of the controller is so big that it's nearly impossible to win against the keyboard. (My luck is that my brother is not so good in fps games) I hope you will update the game soon, with new maps and others!
But overall i love this game! Just keep going!

I will add better sensitivity settings in the next build, thanks for the suggestion! 

In the new update I added more sensitivity options (hit tab to open pause menu and then settings and controls) You should be able to adjust the controller's sensitivity much better now! You can get the new update here: Couch Combat by Butwhylevin (itch.io)

ps4 controller does not work, constantly spins and the spin cant be controlled

Ya Bro Thats A Problem With The Controllers Bro use DS4 Windows For ps4 Controller I Also Use This

thx bro

I know there just one prozent  of linux user out there but could you make it also available for linux?

Cool game.

The new update has a Linux version, though I have no way to test it so it might not actually work, still you can try it out here: Couch Combat by Butwhylevin (itch.io)

Bro There Is No Link For Windows

I am using a keyboard and controller and the controller will not spawn in as player 1 or 2. The keyboard and mouse connect just fine but the controller doesn't connect when I press a

I understand the name of the game, but i would really appreciate a offline single player mode. I have a broken controller and cannot play with a friend. And i downloaded the game expecting a offline mode, but then again, i did not read the page. But yea! 0.42 Offline mode!

Pressing A on an xbox one controller doesnt spawn second player in, spawns first though

Only blue spawns on the menu for me, (using Xbox one controller connected via USB) both keyboard and controller spawn the blue character in but I can't spawn in red. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

how do get pass the menu

how do you start game

You need to use a controller and hit a to drop in the second player. You can then hit ready to continue.
