Hi everyone

Here is a small guide for getting into the SuperWEIRD playtest and launching co-op with friends.

For anyone landing on this tiny space rock for the first time, SuperWEIRD is an automation roguelite about building strange production chains, commanding clumsy robots, assembling pieces of a broken planet, and fighting the Corruption called Goofy Goo. And now, very carefully, we are testing multiplayer.

Already in the playtest? Invite up to 3 friends

If you already have SuperWEIRD in your Steam library, you can invite up to 3 friends to join the playtest.

How to invite friends to the playtest

Open the SuperWEIRD playtest page in Steam.
Find the blue button that says something like “3 invites remaining”.
Click it.
In the window that opens, press the double-arrow button.
Then press “Invite friends”.
Steam will open the invite window. You can invite up to 3 people from your friends list, as long as you have been Steam friends for 30+ days.

How to invite a friend into co-op

Let’s say your friend already has access to the SuperWEIRD playtest. Now you can try starting co-op.

Option 1: Steam Overlay invite, the most reliable way

Launch SuperWEIRD.
Press Shift + Tab to open the Steam Overlay.
Open your friends list.
Choose “Invite to Game”.
Make sure your friend launches the game before accepting your invitation and joining your session.

This is the method we recommend trying first.

Option 2: Join with a code

You can also use the co-op code.

Copy the invite code from the exit menu.
Send it to your friend.
Your friend should press the “Join Game” button.
Then they need to paste the code into the code field.
If the button on the right side does not work, try using Ctrl + V to paste the code manually.

Thank you for helping us test this very fragile little space experiment.

Happy testing!
