Quick answers

Is Star Shelter co-op?
Yes, Star Shelter supports co-op.
Does Star Shelter have PvP?
Steam does not list PvP for Star Shelter.
Do we both need to own Star Shelter to play together?
Not always. Star Shelter supports Steam Remote Play Together: one person who owns it hosts and streams a local session to friends who don't (Steam quotes up to four players, more on a fast connection). For online co-op or PvP, every player needs their own copy.
How many people play Star Shelter?
Player counts were not available when this page was built.
Does Star Shelter have split-screen or local multiplayer?
Yes. Steam lists Star Shelter with shared/split-screen co-op on one PC — and it supports Remote Play Together, so a friend can join that local session over the internet.
