How-to: HoSaF Multiplayer via Remote Play Together

Hi everybody! As we've recently enabled and tested this feature, here's a quick guide how to set up Silence of the Siren hot-seat multiplayer as an online game with your friends using Remote Play Together.

[h3]Setup - "host" side[/h3]
  • Shift + Tab to open Steam overlay
  • Switch to the Remote Play section and invite your friends from here
  • When they join, make sure to enable keyboard and mouse controls for them
  • Start a custom scenario and set your players to "human", feel free to choose the same team if you'd like to play a co-op game
  • It's a good idea to run a voice call in parallel with the game session to coordinate who "holds" the controls at which point :)


[h3]Technical issues/troubleshooting[/h3]
  • If one of the players is on Linux, the video stream might not work, but it works the other way around, if the Linux player hosts the game
  • Increase streaming quality to improve text readability

We hope you get to enjoy the game with your friends and we'll be curious to hear your feedback!
