My younger cousin comes over today (like every few months) and we will be playing some couch coop games over the weekend.

So far we tried a lot of games and found some great ones along the way. Sidescrollers work sometimes, but third person and isometric is better. And I won't touch another twin stick shooter haha. Do y'all have any suggestions, it's always so much work to find a good new game (as opposed to just going after steam review, buying, and returning within 30min of playtime because it sucked).

Honorable mentions:

  • Swords of Ditto (literally no one plays this, but it's a pretty neat co-op zelda-like
  • Darksiders Genesis (hack n slash)
  • It takes Two (co-op puzzle)
  • Children of Morta (great roguelite)

I also bought Secret of Mana, maybe we'll play this.

Most of my suggestions that I've been playing with my brother are already posted, so I'll just add 3 more I haven't seen yet:

  • Human Fall Flat
  • Enter the gungeon
  • Vampire survivors

If you like Enter The Gungeon, definitely try AK-xolotl. Same type of game, but more linear in a way. Rather than a single dungeon with multiple rooms to explore around, you go into a room, clear it, then choose 1 of 2 doors. Each door has a symbol to tell you which reward you will get after clearing it. Modding your weapons is much easier too.

Oh, it didn't have co-op when I saw it before, but it has now, wishlisted, thanks, but I'm playing through baldurs gate 3 and that is gonna take over 200h before I move on :p

I'm going to second human fall flat, it's a lot of fun. I'll also add any of the Lego games to the list but the star wars one are definitely the best.
