On Sept 12th, just a few days from now, we're opening up the Co-op Gaming for Cash to everyone, no matter their location.
Back on June 4, I launched the program, but was limited to local gameplay only. Unfortunately, there's been no luck getting anyone local to me to co-op game for boosted YT monetization, even with the promise of paying them min wage https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1HiSXku3CL/
So now, we'll be looking for non-local remote players around the Country. We'll be hosting this via Parsec. All the same rules and all apply as in the original post.
We'll likely make a video and SEO it, as well as advertised the position(s) through Upwork.
If you're interested in making a real wage playing real retro video games, on your schedule, check out our original post, and send me a message!
Now available for non-locals (remote play) via Parsec!
There's $3843.75+ currently on the table here, just waiting to be earned, simply by playing 2-player co-op video games!
I'm rolling out the new Game Master Co-Op Cash for Gaming Agenda. I pay $46.875 to anyone who participates in beating a co-op retro video game with me! Currently located in Laurens IA for 2025 and 2026, and Ames IA for Fall 2026+ Send a message to me through the Game Master FB page only, please.
This could be your side-hussle, or even a PT long-term job for you if you keep participating in co-op gaming with me (yes, this price is min wage based on the average completion for a 2 player co-op video game). This is also much more than what game tester platforms pay, and also more frequently.
The gameplay goes up on our monetized YT and FB. Co-op player gets no royalties or additional income from monetized video revenues. Contract for wage is included per game. Payment is made once game is completed. Co-op gaming participant(s) are liable for their own taxes, unless they choose to continue participating long-term, which I will have to make a payroll for. 1 game per person at a time. Participant must be 18 or older. Those who start a co-op game and do not complete it or start to not make consistent meetings to beat the game do not get paid and are considered quitters.
Now available for non-locals (remote play) via Parsec. Very flexible schedule, so mostly on co-op participants' time and leisure.
*If multiple applicants apply for one of the 3-4 player co-op games below, we will accommodate a 3-4 player co-op session for that game, and the $46.875 will be split equally between co-op participants (minus myself).
*There are also double or nothin', triple or nothin', and specials that pay more.
*Note that the triple asterisk after a game means that the applicant must show they beat the previous game in the series to be eligible.

__________________________________________
*The games below are partitioned as "Double or Nothing." This is basically a co-op game that has like easy, normal/medium, hard modes; the goal is to get the max hardness on co-op completed and captured for our YT Channel. IN order to get to that and make that happen, I require the co-op gamer to play through the previous/lower difficultly setting first and beat the game that way as training. This helps build our team work, and makes sure the co-op gamer is trained and ready for the next difficulty setting. So the actual pay/income the gamer gets will be distributed after the most difficult setting game completion. This process ensures that the gamer gets paid $46.875 for each difficulty setting, but also ensures me that the other player keeps with it for the next highest difficulty setting. So for example, Jedi Power Battles has Novice and Jedi modes, so the applicant would get $93.75 for completing the game on both difficulty settings on 2-player co-op mode. If they quit after the novice and didn't do the Jedi mode, they get no pay. Again, this ensures me that the money I am paying is being invested in monetized YT content, so I don't get screwed, but also ensuring at least minimum wage is paid to the applicants.
1. Star Wars Jedi Power Battles PS1
2. Star Wars Jedi Power Battles Dreamcast
3. Sonic Advanced 3 GBA***
