Beat Banger: Encore
A downloadable Game mod
⬩ PATREON ⬩ X ⬩ BLUESKY ⬩ NEWGROUNDS ⬩
Beat Banger is a rhythm-based +18 video game created by BunFan, available on Steam Store or Itch.io. You must own the game to play my mod, but you will always have access to a video version of the gameplay on my Patreon or social media after the free release of the chapters.
All chapters will be free until the very end! The last ones will come out once I start sharing new projects on my Patreon to eventually replace this one, so it might take a little while. Thank you so much for your patience, and feel free to check out the early releases on my Patreon. I really appreciate all the support you give me!
Exclusive content will be available on my Patreon. Chapter 1 will feature exclusive animations, while upcoming chapters will be available before the free release.

Hi HMioKun, I'm currently having trouble accessing the demo of your mod, Beat Banger Encore. I'm following all of your steps correctly (or at least I think I am), and I'm still having issues. I have a screen recording of my process, and I'm hoping that you can point out what exactly I'm doing wrong. Is there a specific way I should send you the video?
I'm really interested in your work, and I'm enticed by your art style!
If you're having issues with the mod, try asking on the official Beat Banger Discord, it should work fine. I can’t help much since I only made the mod, not the game, so the devs or community there can probably assist you better.
In the Beat Banger menu, you’ll find a Discord icon that takes you directly to their server, you can get help there.
Can yall make a mobile version
I have no control over the original game, I’m just making a mod, but I hope that one day the creators (BunFan), will release a mobile version with the possibility to play with my mod!
which game version is this for?
For now, it’s for the latest version (v49). If future updates cause any issues, I’ll release an update.
Will this be a completely exclusive mod for patrons, or will it eventually come out for the public?
Never mind, just saw the roadmap.
I'm having problems seeing the demo in my mod section.
I’m not sure if you managed to follow the tutorial I posted?

[MAC] ~/Library/Application Support/Godot/app_userdata/Beat Banger/mods
3. Open the game → go to the Mods menu → and play!
i am having struggles to download the game may you have any requirements?
You need to download it, then unzip the folder into the location indicated in the tutorial. You might need WinRAR or another program to unzip it if the default Windows or Mac tool doesn’t work. Of course, you’ll also need the original game, as I mentioned.
You’ll need to give me more details about your problem.
So Free Version Is Demo & Next beat Banger Encore Paid One Right so mean question is How Much Paid One Beat Banger Encore or Coming to Steam?
You should check the roadmap, but to be clear: the game will be about 80% free. Chapter 1 is on my Patreon, and later, once I finish Chapter 2 on Patreon, I’ll release Chapter 1 for free on itch.io. Then, when Chapter 4 comes out on Patreon, Chapter 2 will also become free on itch.io.
I’m not sure yet if it will be available on Steam in the mods section, I haven’t checked, but I’ll try to add it to the in-game mod download section provided by the developers themselves and see if that’s possible once Chapter 1 is released (not the demo).
Almost everything will eventually be free, it will just take time. Supporting the project on Patreon lets fans access content earlier and helps me continue developing the mod, which gives the game a second life. Like many games, mods help them last longer, so I think it’s fair to make all content free eventually while giving supporters a chance to enjoy it early and support the creator financially.
How do you get the game?
You can either download the DEMO I just released, which is just a showcase of all the free animations I’ve shared, or get all the animations in Tier 2 on my Patreon. Tier 1 contains half of Tier 2, and Tier 1 will be released for free once Chapter 2 is fully completed.
will this ever be completely free to play or will there always be things only available to the patreon?
Some things are still a bit unclear, but eventually almost everything will be free. A few parts might remain paid for quite a while, but I believe that one day nearly everything will be free. I’ll figure it out over time, depending on how things develop and how I organize my work.
This mod looks good from little clips but uh I just wanted to point out that there is a website called f95zone and it has downloads of this exact mod and its a shame because it looks like you worked hard on this and people aren't patient nor want to pay and are giving it out for free I hope you can get that fixed.
If anything more people will find out about this and be inclined to support the project after they get to try it out themselves, keep up the good work dev
Maybe you’re talking more about the game than my mod, because I can’t find my mod anywhere at the moment.
Maybe that’s for the best, it means I can trust my fans who support me on Patreon. But if it does show up somewhere, I’ll have to figure out how to get it removed from all the sites where it might appear.
Thank you for letting me know! I hope you’ll enjoy my mod!
So I have question(s) I wanted to know, outside of the Free and Patreon versions. Will there at some point be an option to buy the full package, say from here that would include the 40+ animations and what the patron backers would get/see? Or will it be hard locked to Patreon and Free versions only, and thus not readily available as a one time purchasable product? I do not mind backing via patreon, but I wanted to learn more about later options if any are available. Thank you for your time.
I can't say for sure yet, maybe when the mod is fully finished, but for now, it will stay on Patreon.
I have a lot of ideas that could take months or even years, with different chapters. I've already planned parts of chapters 2 and 3, including new characters, but I'll also add more scenes for the original characters like Cathy, Gale, and Dawna.
It depends on fan support, if it helps cover rent and food, I can keep working on the mod!
Very understandable. I thank you for the reasonable response.
How long have you been working on this
I started this mod on January 18, 2024, worked on the storyboard for three days, then paused to finish other tasks. I resumed on February 25
So far, I’ve spent about 30 days on it, with some time also going to commissions. Once those are done, I can focus on the mod daily and hopefully finish the chapter 1 in 2-3 months
