The Crackpet Show - Advent Calendar 3/6
Dear animal-freakshow-lovers,
Do you know this lovely feeling when your favorite show gets more enjoyable with each season? Well, the best thing about The Crackpet Show is that we've been revamping everything from Episode 1 to 18 during this whole year of Early Access. So now it's the best time to jump back into the most bizarre show with cute yet violent animals. And to make things easier here is everything that changed throughout the year.
[h2]So, here is the 3rd part of our Advent Calendar - 1 Year in Early Acces Changes. [/h2]
But, before we start, make sure that you have tried our free Prologue, featuring 3 episodes from the first Season:

[h2]Introduction of Season 3[/h2]
With Crackpets moving to Petopolis, we've opened an entirely new biome with 6 new exciting bosses, including the final encounter and a big show Finale! This time you need all the sponsor power and the best combination of perks, special items, and weapons to beat the Blind Hugger, Blood Brothers, or deadly Cockroach The Builder.
[h2]Endless Mode with Online Leaderboards[/h2]
After beating Season 1, you will receive access to an entirely new game mode that uniquely blends everything The Crackpet Show has to offer in a completely new randomized way. Go through the largest rooms yet, clear 10 waves of enemies, and beat the random boss to fight for the high score in online leaderboards.
[h2]New room types & layouts and decorations[/h2]
Each biome has 8 new room layouts with 4 variants, giving you 32 new additional mayhem playgrounds with a new set of decorations.
We've also added entirely new room types:
Upgrade Room - the only way of getting everything out of your weapons, giving you access to level 4. Remember, the first upgrade is for free. For more, you need likes.
Stash Room - sometimes you need the power right from the start. So now you can place a weapon in a magic red fridge that makes a copy of it, giving you a chance to take it out at the start of a different episode. How neat!
All of the above are accessible via sponsor upgrades.
[h2]Character skins[/h2]
The Crackpet Show is all about fame and style too! Kill 5 bosses, grab the skin cards, and put them in the shiny new machine in the lobby to get a random outfit for your beloved characters.
For the full version, there are 24 of them, with 8 new ones coming soon + 2 additional ones inspired by Admiral Bahroo's avatar. So this gives us a whooping 34 outfits for Crackpets.
[h2]New music + main theme[/h2]
With the 1.0 version, we are introducing a main theme composed by Jerome Rossen, the mind behind every single note found in every single episode of the cult classic splatter comedy Happy Tree Friends. We also have new tracks for combat and bosses to enhance the fun and violence of the show.
[h2]New weapons/perks/special items[/h2]
Since the launch of Early Access, we've added tons of new weapons, perks, and special items. Let's take a look at our favorite addition to each of the categories.
Weapon: Random Gun - This magic gun shoots like any other weapon swapping between them with each shot. If you can't decide which works best for you, this is the one for you.
Perk: Short Circuit - The show became more electrifying after introducing this perk to the pool. Add electric powers to your tools of mayhem, and watch how your enemies die quickly. And it also works on barrels, saving time for all participants looking for precious loot.
Special Item: Manifesto - The Crackpet Show is famous for its die-hard fans, but now they can show their dedication by joining the mayhem and fighting on your side!
[h2]Critical hits mechanic[/h2]
During Early Access, we've introduced a Critical Hits system with a set of new dedicated sponsor upgrades, perks, and special items. It opened up an entirely new wave of builds focused on close-quarters fighting.
[h2]Rebalancing[/h2]
During the entire Early Access, we've been gathering reports from the community and checking stats of deaths and most efficient weapons to find a golden sweet spot for an overall balance.
As a result, we've reworked how the beginning of The Crackpet Show works, giving enemies a new attack pattern, making it easier to pick up your friends in co-op, and boosting special items significantly to make them more useful.
[h2]QoL improvements[/h2]
There are tons of small changes that should make playing The Crackpet Show more enjoyable, to name a few:
[h2]Easter eggs and a secret room[/h2]
Have you noticed the addition of a secret room with one of the Early Access updates? Even we have trouble finding it. But it's worth looking for to discover Mr. Parrot Secrets!
And last but not least, easter eggs are in the launch version. We don't want to spoil the surprise, so we will leave you with a small hint for reading the article to the end. Try to stand still in a lobby for a few minutes and see what happens. đź‘€
As you can see, now is the best time to secure the first row for The Crackpet Show and enjoy everything it offers on December 15th.
