First add the background, players, and solid instances into families. You will need two families; one for sprites, and one for tiled backgrounds. You will need to add two global numbers: Dy and Dx. Both are set at zero. Now, add a group and call it "split-screen". In that group, create a blank condition. For the actions:

To finish this off, add another group called "Game" and put in it the players' controls. When the left and right / 'A' and 'D' are down, don't forget to set the players mirrored / not mirrored.

    I'm sorry, I really don't have a formula for calculating the number of blocks. I just use trial and error by testing it. You might be able to find one, though.

  • If I change the size of the viewport from 768 x 480 to 1152 x 720, I can only get it to work well when I add more blocks to the left and right. What is the number of blocks I need to add as I increase the viewport size? Just wondering. I got it to work at the higher size, but I wondered if there was a formula for calculating how to do this for a larger play area size.
