Rain Meadow

Description
A multiplayer engine, custom game mode, and online arena / story experience for Rain World!

The Watcher campaign is PARTIALLY supported. Expect bugs.

How it works

  • For the best possible experience, disable all non-essential content mods. If you're experiencing crashes, try with less mods on.
  • Click the Meadow button to get to the lobby list. Join a lobby or host your own!
  • By default Rain Meadow uses Steam to find and create lobbies. Lan matchmaking is also possible.

Game Modes

Meadow

  • Explore a peaceful version of Rain World, encounter other players, roam together gathering unlocks to unlock new emotes, skins and creatures.
  • Custom emoting to communicate by @Wolfycat!
  • Sound effects to communicate
  • Hour-long original soundtrack by @Intikus!
  • Hand-built creature navigation

Story

  • Vanilla campaigns available by default
  • Access other campaigns through the "Experimental Features" remix option
  • Currently-supported campaigns: Survivor, Monk, Hunter, Artificer, Gourmand
  • Campaigns not listed above are NOT supported and will likely desync or crash on any special events
  • Host can only play as the campaign slugcat, clients can select slugcats other than the current campaign
  • Food requirement is determined by the current campaign. Food nourishment is determined by the player's slugcat regardless of current campaign

    • e.g. Hunter in Survivor's campaign can eat meat
  • All ingame players, dead or alive, MUST be present at a karma gate to continue

    • Dead players can exit to lobby to allow others to continue
  • Do not attempt to grab or piggyback players as it WILL break the game
  • You may den in separate shelters within the same region

Arena

  • Currently offers Competitive (PvP) mode
  • Dens open when the rain comes or when there's only one scug left standing
  • Countdown timer ensures all players have a chance to grab weapons before attacking; Prevents some slugcat abilties
  • Saint by default uses ascendance as the mode of attack. Switch to Sain't abilities via Remix
  • All levels are unlocked. Some levels are "multi_stage". Some levels do not spawn items due to that levels' pre-baked code.

Communication (Story and Arena only)

  • Press "Enter" to open chat
  • Press "J" to show usernames and player icons
  • Press "Tab" to open the spectator menu

Moderation (Story and Arena only)

  • Host can kick players via the spectator menu; Clients can mute players
  • Kicking players prevents them from rejoining your current lobby

    • The ban does NOT carry between lobbies

Mod Compatibility

  • Mods that add regions/campaigns/creatures/items need to be synced between all players, including load-order.
  • There's a modsync tool that will prompt you to enable/disable/install missmatched mods, but it's not completely foolproof.
  • You can tweak what mods are subject to modsync as the host by adding them to the `meadow-highimpactmods` textfile in StreamingAssets.
  • The community-maintained mod compatibility spreadsheet can be found here[docs.google.com]

Mod broken due to the new patch, we'll fix it soon™

You have to purchase the MSC DLC in order to get Jolly Co-op. It's worth it, though. I can't imagine playing Rain World without MSC.
Monokuro 22 Oct @ 10:28am 
If you get "Jolly Co-op" you can play as any slugcat in the vanilla campaigns. If you want more freedom, there's a mod called "Unshackled Co-op" which allows you to be any slugcat in ANY campaign.

Eric, you absolutely can.
