Get ready for some pure, unadulterated country vengeance - powered by wildly funny ragdoll physics! Redneck Mayhem is a hilarious, physics-based slingshot game where small-town grit takes on the modern world. Follow three fed-up local heroes as they lock, load, and launch random junk, and eventually themselves at the professions that drive them crazy. The Mission: Unleash the Mayhem! Meet the crew: Hank: The grease-monkey mechanic who knows exactly how to dismantle a structure. Earl: The hard-working farmer who has zero patience for city nonsense. Tucker: The proudly unemployed wildcard who is just here for the chaos. They've had enough of the modern world and are taking aim at a rogues' gallery of modern irritants: corrupt banksters, crooked politicians, pretentious baristas, overly trendy barbers, and package-dropping couriers. Load up your oversized slingshot with whatever scrap is lying around the yard - hammers, explosive barrels, heavy wheels, and wooden boxes. When you run out of ammo and things get desperate, it's time for the ultimate weapon: launching the rednecks themselves directly into enemy lines! Settle the Score in Two-Player Versus Mode! Think you're the best shot in the county? Take the destruction head-to-head! Challenge a friend locally or test your skills against a CPU opponent across adjustable difficulties and maps to see who can wreak the most havoc and claim ultimate bragging rights. Unpredictable ragdoll physics guarantee you'll laugh out loud at every crash! Pull back the slingshot, unleash the mayhem, and show those city slickers how real country folks solve problems!
