New Public Build (v0.5.3)!

Bare Backstreets (V 0.7.3)
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

We worked out butts off this month to get out a new update in 4 weeks or less! We managed to not only get a brand new enemy done in this time, but also a lot of polish on some of our older assets! We can say with confidence that you will see us update the game each month now that we have become comfortable with the new engine, quirks and all.

Woah, Nice Score!      

Doing well in the game now actually serves a purpose! Defeating enemies, finding the portal quickly, combos, upgrades, minigame escapes and vitality all contribute to your final score tally for that level. High scores are saved so you can outdo your personal best!

Better Genesis!   

Some of our earlier illustrations don't really hold up to our current work. This was particularly noticeable on our female playable character Genesis where she looked a little too masculine. She now has more expressive poses to help further distinguish her from her male counterpart.

He's been teased and now he's yours! There is now a 50% chance a Big Gunt will spawn instead of the Werewolf, offering more enemy and lewd scene variety! Currently he is only available for Patreon pledgers.

Less obnoxious login screen!   

Liked the lack of passwords but hated the new login screen? We did too! You can now jump right into the action with a click of a button. Simply click Patreon if you are supporting BBS here or the blue one if you are on Subscribestar and your good to go! Hit the X if you want to play the free demo.

Better Interface!     

All of our menus have been redesigned to harmonize better with each other.  Each sub-menu has been given an icon, header and description to make them easier to use. Our SFW mode is now also fully functional and will display a [SFW] under the healthbar to indicate that the game is stream friendly. It's never been easier to make videos of BBS!
