I was trying to set up a Jolly mode Co-op story mode playthrough with my cousin (we uses the steam remote connect) and after a while of fussing about we managed to get everything connected, set up our slugcats and settings, and started the game. The cutscene played just fine, there wasn’t any lag, but once the cutscene finished and it entered the loading screen that should’ve eventually become the beginning of the game, it just stayed loading and nothing changed. It continued loading for at least ten minutes with no change before we gave up.
I googled it and saw a couple Reddit posts with the same issue (granted, both were before Downpour’s release) but is this a bug or just an issue with connection of some kind?
