Ragdoll Physics Experiments News

[h3]Just a small update following the launch.[/h3]

• [p]Fixed issue where you could not exit first build room if you are haven't toggled off build mode.[/p]
• [p]Fixed rare bug where graphics menu options could be changed even when the clipboard was not visible![/p]
• [p]Fixed gift boat collision - Apparently some people were not happy they couldn't sit in it properly.[/p]

[p][/p][p]I'm sure the future ones will be more exciting![/p]

[h2]Good news everyone![/h2][p]Tomorrow, the doors to the RMF testing facility finally open.[/p][p][/p][p]The RMF's Ragdoll Physics Experiments demo goes live tomorrow, which means you are officially invited to enter a highly professional testing facility and immediately do something irresponsible with gravity.[/p][p][/p][p]Expect a taste of the chaos, some guided experimentation, and the Voice of the Facility keeping notes on your behaviour like a disenfranchised and disappointed parent.[/p][p][/p][p]If you want to help us out, please Wishlist the full game and hit Follow so you do not miss future updates.[/p][p]To get involved and help shape the game, join the Discord: https://discord.gg/ebvH7dGBP2[/p][p][/p][p]See you in the game. And don't listen too much to the Voice of the Facility. He means well... Probably.[/p][p][/p][p]Columbo moment: oh, and one more thing! If you fancy being an absolute legend: our Kickstarter pre-launch page is live here, and clicking “Notify on Launch” helps massively: http://bit.ly/RPE-KickStarter[/p][p][/p]

[p]Merry Christmas everyone, and I hope you have a properly lovely New Year. 🎄[/p][p][/p][p]Quick update from us at Giraffe Head Studios: the demo is coming very soon.[/p][p][/p][p]We are in that final stretch of fixing the last minute bits and pieces, polishing rough edges, and doing the boring-but-necessary checks that stop things exploding in the wrong way.[/p][p][/p][p]How the demo release will work
The demo will first go live in an Advanced Preview state. That means it is fully playable, it is fully representative of the game, and it is absolutely most likely a thing you should try… but also, we will be actively improving as we head towards Early Access. So, expect updates, tweaks, and general “why did that ragdoll do that” adjustments.[/p][p][/p][p]A note on bugs (Chaos is a Feature)
Just trying to manage the expections here, rather than make excuses (honest guv...). There will still be some issues in the demo, and honestly, some of them are staying. It is a physics experiment game after all, and a bit of chaos is part of the deal.[/p][p][/p][p]That said, we will be fixing anything that is:[/p]

• [p]Game breaking[/p]
• [p]Not hilarious[/p]
• [p]Getting in the way of the fun[/p]

[p]If you play the Advanced Preview and something feels properly wrong, please shout. Come in here and let us know, or even better join the discord. EVeryone in there is very friendly, some possibly more than they should be. Steve we're looking at you... [/p][p]Anyway, your feedback genuinely helps us get this into the best shape possible for Early Access.[/p][p][/p][p]Thanks for all the support so far. More soon.[/p][p]P.S. If you want to give the project a tiny boost, you can either add it to your wishlist or give a little press of the Notify on Launch on the Kickstarter pre-launch page here: [/p][p]https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/gentleland/rmfs-ragdoll-physics-experiments[/p][p][/p]

[h3]Playtesting is now closed[/h3][p]We’ve officially closed sign-ups for the demo playtest.[/p][p]First and foremost, thank you to everyone who applied, played, broke things, and sent us feedback. The playtest has been incredibly valuable and has helped shape the demo into something we’re genuinely excited to put in front of everyone.[/p][p]To those who signed up but didn’t get selected, we’re really sorry about that. We had far more interest than we could reasonably handle at this stage. Please don’t despair though.[/p][p][/p][h3]The demo is about to go public[/h3][p]The good news is that the demo itself is about to be released publicly and officially. Very soon, everyone will be able to download it directly from Steam and experience it for themselves, no sign-up required.[/p][p]This demo is the same core experience that was previously playtested, now refined, cleaned up, and prepared for a wider audience.[/p][p][/p][h3]Early Access playtesting is coming next[/h3][p]Shortly after the demo goes live, we’ll be opening up a new round of playtesting. This next phase will focus on early access content that goes beyond the demo and starts to show what the full game is shaping up to be.[/p][p][/p][p]If you previously signed up but weren’t selected, you’ll still be in the running for this next playtest wave.[/p][p]We’ll share more details on how and when to apply once the demo is live.[/p][p][/p][p]Once again, thank you for the support, the feedback, and the patience. We’re very close to letting everyone get their hands on this.[/p][p][/p][p]See you very soon.[/p][p]Rory the Ragdoll Overlord[/p]

[h3]🎮 PLAYTESTER SIGN-UPS NOW OPEN![/h3][p]We’re opening the doors to the Ragdoll Manufacturing Facility and looking for players who love breaking games and telling us how they did it.[/p][p]If you enjoy discovering weird bugs, hilarious physics, or just watching ragdolls explode in unpredictable ways, we want you in the lab.[/p][p]🧩 How it works:[/p]

• [p]Selected testers will receive Steam keys once testing begins.[/p]
