The Crackpet Show - New Game Mode Announcement

Dear animal-freakshow-lovers,
It's the time!



The developers supplemented the game with new crazy content throughout the Early Access. At last, The Crackpet Show is approaching its final 2022 release for PC and consoles with many explosive new features.

Lock, load, and dive into the fast, teeth-grinding, larger-than-life action that tests the mettle of the show's participants. The Endless mode is a brand new game mode that tosses players into a bullet hell of infinite enemy waves and bosses - surviving requires constant vigilance and a careful selection of perks and, of course, weapons. Keep the mayhem going!

Choose your beast, pick a starting class and go kill'em all.
Get ready for non-stop action! Boost yourself by acquiring special items and weapons that drop from defeated enemies. Kill random bosses to prove you are worthy of entering the next room. Best of all, you can keep your loadout and make the ultimate build that will propel you to the top of the global leaderboard or die trying.

Set the high score and check how your run fares on the leaderboard or compare it to your friends' efforts.
Of course, you can team up to shoot your way through countless waves in couch co-op or via remote play with up to 4 players.

So here is a short recap of everything you'll have to come across:

  • Deal with hordes of various enemies, and then try to beat the bosses - this is a real BULLET HELL thing.
  • A lot of rooms and stages will replace each other
  • Weapons, perks, and specials are even crazier now.
  • Compete with others - leaderboards and stats will help you

The Crackpet Show - Dress to impress [0.15.5 content update]

Dear animal-freakshow-lovers,

It’s time to get yourself a new outfit, because we’ve got a
▌│█║▌║▌║ NEW UPDATE ║▌║▌║█│▌

Is fame without style actually worth it? You don’t have to answer this question anymore, because the lobby of the most bizarre TV show now features a new machine!

Each killed boss grants you a Skin Card, and five of them allow you to rotate a fortune wheel. Will you get them all?



Let’s see who brought the best fashion to The Crackpet Show!

New machine


Wheel of fortune: put five Skin Cards and rotate the wheel to grab one out of eight new outfits for Crackpets



New skins


One new skin per character: Fast-food Rusty, How I Became Dragon Crocodile, Alien Goat, Sharky Out of Jail, Cowy Cowie, you name it. It is the first batch, and more of them are on the way!





We’ve also tweaked some of the bugs reported by the community, so a big thank you for sending us all the detailed reports, which help us a lot. Let’s take look at all that’s changed:

0.15.5 - changelog


New content



  • Main bosses drop Skin Cards
  • In the lobby, there is a new stand where you can spend your Skin Cards to unlock new character skins
  • You can choose which skin you want to use when you are in the character capsule in the lobby
  • There are 8 new skins, one for each character


Fixes



  • Fixed game crashing when controller disconnecting while loading
  • Fixed issue where the game incorrectly suggests that you are receiving trophies for every boss in episode 12
  • Fixed the possibility of blocking the door with audience mobs from Audience Rage
  • Some SFX updated
  • Performance improvements


According to the roadmap, this is the last update before the full release. We might need some more time than usual, but we keep working hard on a brand new game mode, which will make it worth the wait!
