Handler notes

IMPORTANT: DON'T USE HORIZONTAL SPLIT AND START YOUR MAIN GAME ONCE BEFORE TRYING SPLIT SCREEN.

Press the End key in case your controller cursor keeps resetting.

It takes a while to get into the menu. Each player needs a save created for that specific mode to be able to join each other. The host needs to set 'session type' to 'Online', start the session as PUBLIC, then join in with the other instances (when searching the lobby it will error out and reload again, after that the lobby will appear).
