Overview
In Co-op, the whole class plays together against you, the teacher: you're the boss. The boss has HP, and every point a student scores is damage. The class wins if the boss reaches 0 HP before the game ends. Co-op works in all four live games and is part of Pro Teacher.
Setting up
- Start a live game as usual (Play Live Game).
- On Choose Play Style, select Co-op.
- On the settings screen, choose the Boss:
- Weak boss: for a class still learning the words
- Strong boss: for a class that knows them
- Epic boss: for a class that nails it
- Custom HP: set the HP yourself
- Optional: turn on End game when the boss is defeated. When it's off (the default), the game runs to its normal end after the boss falls.
- Open the lobby and start the game when everyone is in.
The boss's HP is set by the number of students in the lobby and fixed when you press Start. Students who join late add damage without making the boss stronger.
During the game
- Your host screen shows the boss's HP bar and the class's damage. You can switch to the players' leaderboard.
- Students see the boss's HP on their screen.
- Everyone sees Boss defeated! when the class wins.
- Powers work exactly as in a normal live game.
Results
The results show whether the boss was beaten. There's no podium: the class won or lost together. The game's report includes a Boss Battle section.
FAQ
Which boss should I pick?
Start with the Weak boss for a new song or a new class, and move up when they beat it easily. A fast class with strong powers can beat the Epic boss.
What if a student disconnects?
Their points still count. A disconnect doesn't heal the boss.
