Here is the third pre-alpha of Gang Beasts (0.0.2) it has numerous bug fixes and three new stages.
The fixes in the 0.0.2 build are:

- fixed an issue that made some characters more prone to knockouts
- fixed clipping issues in the Sandbox stage
- modified Truck stability to make Truck suspension less erratic

![Big Wheel]( "Big Wheel")
The new content in the 0.0.2 build is:
- added "Incinerator" stage
- added "Wheel" stage
- added "Street" co-op test stage
- added AI enemies to "Sandbox" and "Street" stage
- added wince / grimace character animation (e.g. Gang Beasts' eyes close briefly when hurt)

- additional sounds
![Burn]( "Burn")
Windows Setup:
To avoid issues playing the 0.0.2, please delete existing Gang Beasts files (the 'Gang Beasts.exe' and 'Gang Beasts_DATA' folder) from your system before downloading the 0.0.2 build. The 0.0.2 files need to be extracted form the Gang_Beasts_0.0.2_Windows.zip file before the game will run.
Information:
- please do not map inputs in the default Unity launch settings window (please use the in-game input configuration window, which can be invoked with 'Tab' key)
- punching and grabbing will intermittently fail if PUNCH or GRAB are mapped to analogue triggers (we suggest mapping the left and right bumpers for punching and grabbing)
- custom input bindings should save automatically
- currently their is no support for plug and play (please connect controllers before running Gang Beasts if input is not detected)
- currently the menu screen does no support controller or keyboard input (please use a mouse)
yeees the 0.0.2 is out
I'm so happy! I love this game!!

How do you control your character?
On a key board...because i dont have money for a joystick...
And can two players play on one keyboard and mouse?
press tab while in game to remap your controls.
Playing multiplayer on the keyboard all depends on your keyboard. Theres a hardware limitation on some keyboards called "key jamming" that will make multiplayer difficult.

you need to extract the game from the .zip folder before trying to play.
that happens to me i dont know what to do
right click the downloaded file (gang_beasts_0_0_2_windows.zip) and select the "Extract All" option, follow the instructions that pop up.
Once you have finished extracting the game, navigate to where you extracted it and double click the "Gang Beasts.exe" and the game should run fine.
To setup your controls press 'Tab' while in-game.

how do i even download it it just says there is an error with the download
from the above link?
AWESOME! Top notch work there mate!
Lol
how do you use a wired xbox controller i plugged it in but its not working
Usually wired Xbox 360 controllers work without any setup. Try pressing the 'Tab' key in game and remapping the controls to the controller.
If the controller still Isn't detected by the game, try following Microsoft's instructions on how to setup their controllers: Support.xbox.com
The game is awesome, and the inclusion of AI makes it better. I hope you release it for the PS4 one day, local coop on PC isn't my thing.
Also, the Trucks level modification made the level too slippery.
They're fixing that tomorrow/today
my ps3 controller doesn't work
download DS3
I'd suggest using "Better DS3 Tool" Betterds3.ciebiera.net
I wish there was better control of the the grabbing ability, for more functionality and more fun silly times,
We are still working on the grabbing and lifting controls, if you're struggling to lift objects above waist height you can try holding the object with both hands whilst pressing the lift button.
Finally there are CPU enemies, great! You're doing a really great job, the game is just an Alpha but it already looks amazing!
But I noticed that the big pink guy at the end of the level in the city road does not attack the blue men, is he supposed to attack only the player or it's an A.I. bug? (different color= different team, and teams battle each other; am I right? Or all the CPUs are supposed to attack only the player?)
Sorry for my bad English...

We arbitrarily made the big pink man that colour to make him standout from his purple minions, but he is part of the same gang i.e. the 'Street' stage is players vs the others, there isn't currently a concept of a friendly AI in Gang Beasts.
I think he is supposed to attack the player-maybe hes a different color because hes a boss?
Is anyone else having a framerate issue with the street level?
We are still optimizing the scenes and characters so you will find that some levels are more processor intensive than others.
How do I add AI? I'm not getting any when I play on sandbox or any level
Nevermind, THey're working now. You should add AI to the ring level
And add a option to add AI yourself and just have loads of People to fight
the AI needs be capable of grabbing, pulling, lifting, dragging, and throwing etc. to be effective as opponents in the ring and other stages but we plan to support selecting the number of enemies to fight in a later build.
