Rocky Mayhem News

[p]Hi all,[/p][p][/p][p]The final big content update for Rocky Mayhem is here! This update brings 2 new excavation jobs to Excavation mode, and many tweaks and improvements to other modes. Rest assured this is not the final update for the game, but more or less just a final game mode. [/p][p][/p][p]I also wanted to thank you all for an amazing 50 reviews on Steam! I've taken the negative feedback and tried to use it in the best way I could to make improvements, and took what you all loved about the game so I can avoid messing it up! We're now at Very Positive review ratings, and I am so very happy and accomplished to meet this target. It's a perfect target to hit as I submit the final major patch to you guys. Thank you so much![/p][p][/p][h2]What's Next?[/h2][p]In December, Rocky Mayhem will have it's annual Christmas event with a Christmas themed skin in the Limited Free Cosmetic rotation! This event will feature a free 75 levels just for logging in, and another secret surprise for all, in relation to Excavation! After that, Rocky Mayhem will still get loving treatment I assure you, but I will also be putting full focus into my new project, which more will be revealed later on in 2026.

[p]Hi all,[/p][p][/p][p]The mysterious crystal has now been identified after examination, and has been named the Crystal of Experience. This unique lilac crystal has a low chance but a high reward of levels for you to gain, up to being able to get 3 prestiges. Be aware though, despite the crystal being very fragile and easily breakable, the chances of getting levels in any way can be as low as 1 in 30,000 chance and as high as 1 in 10,000 chance. [/p][p][/p][p]Room has also been made for the next crystal to come out in Patch #20, alongside the new asteroid. This update also provides a free cosmetic rotation, the final time trial update and memory optimizations across the board.[/p][p][/p]

• [p]Free Cosmetic #2 - Return of the Pride 2024 limited edition skin! [/p]
• [p]Time Trial #8 - Time Trials will no longer be numbered and may be changed again in the future.[/p]
• [p]You can no longer gain money from the Crystal of Experience[/p]
• [p]Stabilized system memory usage[/p]
• [p]Many optimization changes[/p]

[p]Minor update which reduces memory usage. This issue is being investigated more into. [/p]

[p]Hi all,[/p][p][/p][p]It's been a tough last year constantly updating and adding new content to Rocky Mayhem. After remaking it from the ground up, and adding several new features and modes over a span of 70+ updates, I am really happy with how this game is turning out now. I would really really appreciate it, from the bottom of my heart, if you could consider please nominating Rocky Mayhem for the Labor of Love award for the Steam Awards 2025! I know that this community is significantly small compared to other potential nominees, but this is a massive goal of mine even just to receive a handful of nominations. [/p][p][/p][p]Even if you don't, I still very much appreciate each and every person who has contributed in one way or another, to the consistent development of Rocky Mayhem, and I love you all genuinely. On another news real quick, Patch #20 will be coming out in December with the Christmas update! [/p][p][/p][p]Thank you for reading:)[/p][p]Sep[/p]
