The next major update for Bunny Guys is just around the corner and brings one of the most requested features to the game: the ability to customize your Bunny.
With this update, one of the community's most requested features finally makes its way into the game: the ability to customize your Bunny.
In this news post, I'd like to give you a small preview of what you can expect in the upcoming updates:
Over 180 cosmetic items for your Bunny
Optional Supporter Pack with 32 exclusive cosmetic items
Improved leaderboard protection against invalid entries
Planned Training Mode with checkpoint saving (not part of the upcoming update)
News about the planned Co-op Mode (not part of the upcoming update)
With the upcoming update, you'll be able to customize your Bunny exactly the way you want.
Right from the start, you'll have access to over 180 cosmetic items, including various hats, glasses, masks, backpacks, and many other accessories that can be mixed and matched.
All items are purely cosmetic and have no impact on gameplay. This allows you to create your own unique style without gaining any gameplay advantages.
Of course, this is only the beginning. I plan to continue expanding the selection step by step in future updates.
Alongside the update, an optional Supporter Pack will also be released.
It includes 32 exclusive cosmetic items that are only available through the Supporter Pack.
Out of the over 180 cosmetic items available in total, only 32 are exclusive to the Supporter Pack. The vast majority of customization options will be available to all players.
The Supporter Pack offers no gameplay advantages and is intended for everyone who would like to support Bunny Guys while receiving a few exclusive cosmetic items.
If you're interested in the Supporter Pack, I'd really appreciate it if you added it to your wishlist today. It helps me a lot as a solo developer, and you'll be notified as soon as it's released.
The update also introduces new measures to further improve the integrity of the leaderboards.
An integrated verification system analyzes gameplay for suspicious behavior and detects invalid or manipulated results. Such entries will not be added to the leaderboards.
For obvious reasons, I won't go into detail about how the system works. The goal is to create fair conditions for everyone and make the leaderboards more reliable in the long term.
As with every major update, this one also includes numerous bug fixes, optimizations, and smaller improvements designed to further enhance the gameplay experience.
By far the most frequently requested feature has been the ability to save your progress at checkpoints.
Since Bunny Guys is primarily a competitive game, I wanted to find a fair compromise.
That's why I'm planning a Training Mode where you'll be able to save your progress at checkpoints. This will allow you to practice difficult sections without having to start over from the very beginning every time.
Since this mode is intended purely for practice, achievements and leaderboard entries will not be available in Training Mode. This keeps the competitive mode fair for everyone.
I hope this approach addresses one of the community's most requested features while preserving the competitive nature of Bunny Guys.
I'm also continuing to work on the previously announced Co-op Mode.
Many of you have asked for a way to climb together with friends instead of competing against each other. That's exactly what the Co-op Mode is intended to offer.
I'll share more information about it once development has progressed further.
Thank you to everyone who plays Bunny Guys, shares feedback, and sends me your ideas.
A special thanks also goes to everyone who decides to pick up the Supporter Pack. Your support truly means a lot to me as a solo developer and motivates me to keep improving Bunny Guys.
I'm really looking forward to releasing this update soon and can't wait to see your first customized Bunnies.
Until then, have fun and good luck on your next climb!
