[p]Ahoy, Bean Blasters!

Friends near and far, on land or sea—listen up!

Before braving the chaos of Bang Bang Barrage, here’s your Captain’s Handbook—everything you need to know before launch! 🥁⚓

Q: Where can I play Bang Bang Barrage?

A: Bang Bang Barrage is currently available on Steam, and supports both Windows and Mac systems.
[/p][hr][/hr][p]Q: What’s in the full version, and how is it different from the demo?

A: The full game unlocks all content previously marked as “Coming Soon” in the demo, including:[/p]

• [p]✅ 20 playable characters[/p]
• [p]✅ 5 weapon types[/p]
• [p]✅ 10 full levels[/p]
• [p]✅ Cosmetic collectibles & sticker challenges[/p]

[p]⏱️ First-time clear time: Around 10 hours depending on your skill and whether you're playing solo or with a squad.[/p][p]But don’t worry—it doesn’t end there!
Bang Bang Barrage is a roguelike, meaning every run is different. Characters, weapons, and enemy waves combine in endlessly wild ways. Each combo unlocks new strategies, and collectible skins/sticker challenges add tons of replay value.
[/p][hr][/hr][p]Q: Can I play with friends? How many players does it support?
A：Absolutely! Bang Bang Barrage supports 1–4 players, both:[/p]

• [p]Local co-op (same device)[/p]
• [p]Online multiplayer[/p]

[p]In the main menu, choose \[Local Co-Op] or \[Online Mode].

If you want to play with non-Steam friends, you need to check \[Use Room Code] and send the code to the other party. After the other party uses the room code to join the room, you can play together.

After the host checks \[Use Room Code], you can find the room code at the top of the interface when entering the room.
[/p][hr][/hr][p]Q: How many copies are needed for multiplayer play?

A:
Local multiplayer: Only 1 copy is needed for up to 4 players
(⚠️ Note: Only one player can use a mouse. The rest will need controllers!)[/p]

• [p]Online multiplayer: Each player needs their own copy[/p]
• [p]You can also combine both: e.g., 2 players on one PC + 2 friends online!
  [/p]

[hr][/hr][p]Q: Can we still play together if our save progress doesn’t match?

A: Yes! You can always join each other online.
The levels you can choose depend on the host’s progress.[/p][p]📌 Example:
If Player A is on Level 1-4 and Player B is only on Level 1-1, Player A can host and both can jump into Level 1-4 together. Once completed, both will unlock Level 1-5![/p][p]We still recommend starting from the beginning for the smoothest experience—but it’s totally up to you.
[/p][hr][/hr][p]Q: Do coins from the demo carry over?

A: Unfortunately, the coins in the Demo cannot be carried over to the full version.

Unfortunately, demo coins won’t carry over. But!
In the full version:[/p]

• [p]Characters and weapons are unlocked via gameplay (not coins)[/p]
• [p]Coins are used for skins and cosmetic items[/p]
• [p]Tons of coins can be earned through the sticker challenge system—so don’t worry about running out!
  [/p]

[hr][/hr][p]Q: What about the skins from the demo?

A : All demo bonus skins WILL carry over!
This includes:[/p]

• [p]Christmas Hat Beanie 🎅[/p]
• [p]Heart Beanie 💖[/p]
• [p]Pumpkin Boat 🎃[/p]
• [p]Snake Boat 🐍[/p]

[p]And don’t worry—there are plenty of new skins to unlock in the full game, too!
[/p][hr][/hr][p]Q: Is there an easier mode for casual players or kids? A: Yes! If you’re new to shooters, or playing with kids, try Assist Mode in the settings. It makes the game more forgiving while keeping the fun.[/p][p]We encourage players to turn it off once they feel comfortable for the full roguelike experience![/p][hr][/hr][p]Q: Can I fight Cthulhu like in the opening animation?

Oh yes.
You’ll face off against the tentacled terror himself in:[/p]

• [p]Stage 1-5: R’lyeh[/p]
• [p]Stage 2-5: Dreamworld R’lyeh
  Good luck. You’ll need it.
  [/p]

[hr][/hr][p]Q: Can I play solo?

A : Definitely. The game is fully solo-playable with access to all:[/p]

• [p]Characters[/p]
• [p]Weapons[/p]
• [p]Levels[/p]
• [p]Steam achievements[/p]

[p]But with friends? Things get way more chaotic and fun.
We support only invite-based online play (no random matchmaking) to ensure the best co-op experience.
