Creepy Redneck Dinosaur Mansion 1: Re-Raptored

Henry Bayliss, a redneck scientist living deep in the Louisiana bayou, is up to something. Enter Jack Briar: the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms' best agent, and the natural choice for this kind of field work. But Creepy Redneck Dinosaur Mansion 3 was cancelled! What's Jack Briar even doing here?! Join Jack Briar as he races to prevent the Bayliss disaster, explores a creepy mansion, and defeats anyone who gets in his way. Look out, dinos, 'cause you're gonna get jurass-kic'd!

The commitment to the bit here is pretty strong, so let's pull back. CRDM1: Re-Raptored is a sequel to CRDM3, acting as a remake of the first game in the fictional series. Like CRDM3, it addresses the current state of the industry while also exploring the looming culture of remakes and reboots in gaming, as well as the personal ramifications and messy challenges that come with it.  Return to the creepy classic. Explore all-new rooms, dinos, and puzzles in the "original" match-3 survival horror comedy RPG metroidvania – fully re-raptored!

  • A match-3 visual novel sequel to Creepy Redneck Dinosaur Mansion 3.
  • A faithful follow-up from Pedalboard Games, headed by CRDM3's co-lead.
  • A direct narrative sequel with more puzzles, some returning characters, some new characters, and a whole lot more meta-commentary on game development.
  • A brand new soundtrack, a new protagonist, and new mysteries to unravel.
  • An experiment in a new business model for Strange Scaffold, allowing Pedalboard Games to use the original game's codebase.
