StarRupture becomes a different proposition when you're aiming to survive Arcadia-7 together with your buddies.
The current system of the early access build allows you to play in co-op lobbies of up to four players (including yourself). The multiplayer relies on the classic 'host-based' gameplay, but there's a modern twist that Creepy Jar has put in place.

How to play Multiplayer in StarRupture
To play in co-op, one of your group members has to be the host. The host is the person who creates the main world and sets up the game. Being the host doesn't have any in-game advantage, so you can relax on that part. Once they have created the save, the host has to choose between 'Friends Only' or 'Invite Only'.
The first option requires the host to invite every player for a session manually. The second option takes that requirement away, but the other players will have to be present on the host's Steam friend list. To invite a player, the host will have to open the menu. By pressing on the empty slots, they can invite other players via Steam.
Once the other players have accepted the invite, they will be able to play together with the host. Usually, the host leaving the game would have meant the server shutting down. That can be prevented with the use of SaveSync (this is a third-party application that currently supports StarRupture and plenty of other co-op games).
How to use SaveSync in StarRupture
To use the software, both the host and other members in the group will need to own the software. SaveSync can be purchased and installed directly from Steam. Once done, you'll have to open the app and click New Save after selecting StarRupture. All the available saved sessions will appear. Pick one and click Create Save.
The process above has to be done by the host. Once the sync is complete, there will be a green tick. The host can now share the save with the rest of the group. To join, you'll have to open the SaveSync app. The shared file will appear automatically in your list of saves when you pick StarRupture. Choose Activate after selecting the saved file to make it available. Once done, you'll be able to play in the same co-op world irrespective of the host's presence.
