About the Game
Paint the Town Red is a chaotic first person melee combat game set in different locations and time periods and featuring a massive Rogue-Lite adventure. The voxel-based enemies can be punched, bashed, kicked, stabbed and sliced completely dynamically using almost anything that isn't nailed down.
In the Scenario levels you'll need to use your wits, speed and anything you can get your hands on in epic bar fights, disco brawls, old west saloon rumbles and more.
In the epic rogue-lite Beneath you'll have to delve deep underground battling terrifying monsters and unlocking powerful upgrades in a battle against ancient evils.
Our amazing community has used the in-game Level Editor and Custom Texture and Music options to add thousands of amazing new levels to the game on the Steam workshop. Create your own massive brawls, horrific adventures, ingenious puzzle levels and more with the intuitive editor.
We've now added all the planned features for the game and are working on bug fixes, performance, polish and extra community inspired content for the Level Editor and Scenario modifiers.

Up to date
Version 1.1.0
Sep 26, 2024
This update is mainly focused on adding support for bHaptics devices (TactSuit, Tactosy and TactVisor) for increased immersion while playing in VR.
Additionally we've added an additional mode to the Arena called 'Swarm' which lets you use a range of unbreakable weapons fight forever against never-ending human and zombie enemies. It's a great way to practise, exercise or just relieve the stress of the day.

Additionally an extra option for the 'Turn Mode' setting allows you to disable turning with the right stick entirely. This is mainly to help those with controllers that have stick drift. We will soon be adding dead zone options to give additional ways to deal with faulty controllers.

Version 1.3.1
Feb 26, 2023
This is a minor update mainly to revert the default reflections in Workshop levels to have no reflections outside of rooms among other fixes. There is now a toggle available in the Settings in the Level Editor called "Outdoor Reflection Probe" which will determine whether there are reflections outside of rooms in your level or not.
This will make sure any existing levels will look as they always did, but any level that needs these reflections will need to update the level with this option set to on.

There are also some fixes related to issues with the new weapons and lights.

Version 1.2.3
Dec 18, 2022
We've made a small update to the game to change how the menus work for Workshop maps in the game to significantly improve load times and performance when subscribed to hundreds or thousands of maps.
When first viewing the Workshop maps in the menu after this update there might be some additional hitching due to any cached thumbnail images being converted to a different format, but following that it should be much smoother.
If you're subscribed to over 1000 levels/packs on the Workshop you might have experienced several days where they were unplayable in the game last week. This was due to some changes made by Steam which we were able to bring to their attention and they quickly fixed the problem and it shouldn't be an issue again going forward.
This update is exclusively related to the performance of Workshop menus, but we'll have more updates and improvements coming next year.

Version 1.1.3
Apr 2, 2022
Something about a good night's sleep between April 1st and 2nd has made us realise that that whole flowers instead of blood thing was pretty weird so lets just pretend that didn't happen.
But if you'd prefer not to join us in forgetting, we've left the 'Green' modifier available in the game so you can paint the town green whenever the mood strikes.

Version 1.1.2 is a quick follow-up update to the 1.1.1 update which also fixes a bug that caused players to sometimes not teleport to the wrong spot when using a teleporter.
