Hello again! 👋 We have another Alpha Playtest on the horizon, and thanks to your feedback, it's better than ever! But before we get into it, check out our newest trailer if you haven’t!
We want you!
Playtests are the heart of how we make The Rabbit Haul the best it can be. Every bit of feedback, bug report, and idea you share is looked through and helps us grow and improve. When and where?
The playtest takes place from September 8th to the 15th, giving you a whole week to test and enjoy the game, WOO! How to participate?
To participate, you need to join our community Discord and choose the interested role. Everyone with the interested role will receive a Steam key via Discord DM the day the playtest starts, and will be able to redeem it on Steam to download The Rabbit Haul. There will be more instructions for you in the Discord, so hop on in to be ready to jump into The Rabbit Haul! If you can't make this one, no problem. We have more planned down the road! What’s new for this playtest?
All the fun from the last playtest is back (the town, quests, exploring, new weapons, roguelite cards), PLUS some new updates from your feedback on the last playtest: New Tutorial Pop-ups
We’ve added new tutorial pop-ups to guide you through key mechanics. Whether you’re brand new or just need a refresher, these tips will make it easier to understand how to build a strong garden! New difficulty modes (Easy & Normal)
Sometimes you just want to relax in the garden, and sometimes you want to test your limits. Now you can choose between Easy and Normal modes to best suit how you want to play! New Enemy and Tower Take on the new Reaper level 2, and try out the new Giant Stink Bomb on the rest of the Trash Panda Posse! (We can’t wait to see how you use it) Controller support
