This mod lets two people play as Mario on the same screen, with a separate controller for each player. It uses the same method I developed for my own Bowser's Fury local multiplayer mod, which I have not published yet. This is the first of the two that I am releasing publicly.

It currently provides:
  • Independent movement and controls for both players
  • A shared camera that follows the action and zooms out as players separate
  • Independent damage, death and respawning for each player
  • Recovery bubbles when someone falls or gets too far behind
  • Separate costumes and health displays for both players
  • Correct cap and capture ownership, including protection against both players capturing the same target
  • Support for tested doors, stage transitions, captures and 2D sections
It is made for Super Mario Odyssey 1.0.0 and is mainly tested on Ryujinx but as I'm planning to play it with my daughter, it's also been tested/played on our switch.

If you own the game and got a modded switch, feel free to try it out, and please report any bugs found.
 
Any slowdowns at all? and is P2's "hat" on enemies still red? (seemed that way from the video, not sure)
I would have loved this to have been out when I first played the game, thanks for the hard work!
