[[EMERGENCY BROADCAST]]
The playtest for the remake is now open as a beta branch! At the moment, it's extremely barebones with less content than the main game. The biggest highlight is that it runs through Unity now, scrapping GMS2 completely. This allows me to continue development, implement higher-quality assets and spare more performance for demanding stuff in the future.

Currently, all you can do is play a "survival mode" and see how long you can survive for! I'm aiming to update this as regularly as I can, so please be patient. In the meantime, see what you can break or give me feedback on what you'd like to see in this mode before I work on the campaign!

Please provide feedback on our server: https://discord.gg/DsJRKs965c

Development for Rocky Mayhem Remake has resumed

Hi all. I've taken some time to make all old builds playable through Steam's beta branches feature. To access these, right click Rocky Mayhem in your library -> Properties -> Betas and change to any build you'd like. Each build has it's own pros and cons compared to the others including; Different levels, HUD, Movement mechanics, Combat mechanics and more. You'll now be able to access all builds from the very first week of development to 2 months later in order of Prototype to New|Unstable. This update also cuts the file size in half and speeds up the software by a tiny bit!

I would love to continue working on this game but as the files are completely lost and I have no one to help me with it, it is a scrapped project. So take this as some "new" content where you can play through with different builds!
