- v2.0 - Couch co-op, 1 million copies sold! - 12 August 2026
Hello!Machine Party v2.0 is now available, which adds couch co-op. Now you can throw Machine Party on the big screen (or a tiny CRT for extra cool points. if you do please e-mail us with a photo), grab a couple controllers, sit back, and try to relax!Couch co-opTo access couch co-op: connect up to 4 controllers, navigate to Local in the menu, and select either Original, Custom, or Arcade. Once you're in the lobby screen, press any button on one of the controllers to join.One player can also be on keyboard & mouse, so for a group of 4, you only need 3 controllers!

- v1.5 - Arcade mode, fixes, and couch co-op news - 4 August 2026
Hello!This update adds a new 'Arcade' mode, as well as some fixes:New changesAdded the 'Arcade' mode: A quick session of 10 random simulations, random rounds, and with the intro and outro segments removed.When launching the game, players can choose between running the game normally or with Direct3D 12.

It's coming together super nicely, and just needs a bit more work before it's stable and ready to go.Until next time!
