Local Multiplayer Bomberman on One Keyboard
Remember four friends crowded around one keyboard? Classic Boomers brings that back. Up to four players share one PC, each with their own keys, and nobody needs to install anything.
Default key layout
| Player | Move | Bomb |
|---|---|---|
| Player 1 | Arrow keys | Space |
| Player 2 | W A S D | E |
| Player 3 | Set your own keys in Settings, for example I J K L and O | |
| Player 4 | Set your own keys in Settings, for example the numpad | |
Tip: most keyboards can only register a handful of keys at the same time. Spread the four players across the keyboard, left, middle, right and numpad, to avoid missed inputs.
How to set up a local match
- Click Create Lobby on the home screen.
- In the lobby, choose Add local player for every extra person at the keyboard.
- Optionally add bots or let online friends join with the lobby code.
- Press Start. Everyone spawns in their own corner.
Works on a TV too
Plug a laptop into the TV with HDMI, open the game in full screen, and you have a couch party game for free. The neo-arcade visuals are made to be readable from the sofa.
Ready? It takes ten seconds to start a match.
