Play Tiny Rogues as a Risk of Rain 2 survivor. Stack Risk of Rain 2 items, wear Hotline Miami 2 masks, swing Hotline Miami 2 weapons and fight through floors that rotate between all three games. Bring up to three friends.
Everything from Risk of Rain 2 and Hotline Miami 2 is read from your own installs while you play, and drawn in Tiny Rogues' pixel style.
New in 0.3.1
- Co-op fix: a friend joining could end up with no HUD and no control. That happened when their game started Tiny Rogues' tutorial run (a new save) instead of the host's run. The joiner now only follows runs the host starts, the tutorial is skipped, and the joiner's controls work even while their own game is busy.
- One-click joining: friends can press Join on your open game in Melty and land straight in your lobby (codes and F9 still work).
- Masks are now the whole head, HM2 style: Tony's tiger, Corey's zebra, Mark's bear, Alex & Ash's swan, Jake's cobra and Richter's rat, drawn in Tiny Rogues' pixel art, on every survivor, in the lobby and in co-op.
New in 0.3.0
- The lobby now lives at Tiny Rogues' campfire, so unlocks, the mastery tree, gifts and cinders all work between runs. Pick a survivor at the fire (or in the slim neon panel), pick a mask, and ready up with READY or the campfire's Play button. Tab folds the panel away.
- In co-op, everyone's name floats over the survivor they picked, wearing their mask.
- A last-run card after every run: each player's survivor, mask, items, floor, time and what killed them.
- The Hotline Miami 2 phone now sits by the fire and rings once a session; click it to hear the message.
New in 0.2.0
- A lobby before every run: the phone rings, the answering machine plays, everyone picks a survivor and a mask and readies up.
- All 11 base RoR2 survivors, now drawn as real Tiny Rogues characters (Commando's helmet, Huntress's hood, MUL-T's screen, Acrid's jaws...).
- Drops spread out across the room and wait for you to press E, and every item, skill and mask explains itself when you hover it.
- RoR2's difficulty clock, from Very Easy to HAHAHAHAHAHA, so long runs get properly hard.
- RoR2 chests and shrines (Chest, Shrine of Chance, Shrine of the Mountain) and a hidden Newt Altar with lunar items.
- Hotline Miami 2 weapons (bat, Lead Pipe, Double Barrel, Uzi, M16, Drill) in Tiny Rogues' loot.
- HM2 floors with HM2's checker floors and colour-shifting backdrop; easter eggs (a ringing pay phone, Richard, Beard at the shop, RoR2's outro lines).
- In co-op, enemies go after whichever survivor is closest. A polished, bordered HUD.
What's in it
- 11 survivors: Commando, Huntress, Bandit, MUL-T, Engineer, Artificer, Mercenary, REX, Loader, Acrid and Captain. Each has four RoR2 skills: the Primary is the survivor's Tiny Rogues class weapon; Secondary (right click), Utility (Shift) and Special (T) are their RoR2 skills on RoR2-style cooldowns.
- 25 Risk of Rain 2 items with their real effects, stacking like RoR2, including three lunar items, in RoR2's white, green, red and blue beams with RoR2's item bar and pickup banner.
- Hotline Miami 2 masks: Tony, Corey, Mark, Alex & Ash, Jake and Richter, each with its own perk. You pick your starting mask in the lobby.
- Floors from all three games: a Tiny Rogues floor, then a Risk of Rain 2 stage (Titanic Plains, Abandoned Aqueduct, Rallypoint Delta, Distant Roost, Wetland Aspect, Scorched Acres), then a Hotline Miami 2 level (Down Under, Hard News, Dead Ahead, Subway, Blood Money, Take Over) with Hotline Miami 2's own soundtrack.
Co-op (up to 4 players)
Friends meet in the host's lobby, then play the host's run with their own survivor and mask. On Melty, friends press Join on your open game. Your join code is shown in the lobby (F8 copies it). To join a friend, copy their code and press F9 in the lobby. Games connect through Steam, so nobody needs to forward ports.
- A friend who goes down comes back on the next floor with half their health, like RoR2's stage revive.
- Everyone needs all three games and the same version of this mashup.
