Our map scanner was inspired by Aluielll's work on BonkScanner. If you appreciate where the idea came from, consider supporting him:

A community-driven balance and quality-of-life mod for Megabonk.

Community Leaderboard

  • Replaces the Steam leaderboard with a shared community leaderboard
  • Global / Friends / Personal (best run per character) tabs; weekly + lifetime modes
  • Map filter (All/Forest/Desert/Graveyard) and character filter; mouse wheel scrolling with correct rank numbers
  • Server rejects submissions from outdated mod versions; in-game warning banner if your mod is out of date
  • Unauthorized mods detected at startup — score submission blocked and warning banner shown
  • F1 menu features disable leaderboard for the run and show a warning banner

Gameplay

  • Fast Fall — hold Slide while airborne to fast fall
  • Full Heal — heart powerup fully heals instead of partial
  • Pots — drop a random powerup instead of always health
  • Greed Shrine — also grants +5% XP and +5% luck
  • Microwaves — default spawn count raised to 2 (max 3)
  • Cursed Sword — auto-aims the nearest enemy using holy-sword math (slope-parallel swings)
  • Sucky Magnet — pulls drop chests (and placed free chests) toward you on each suck pulse

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. Most mods rely on the game's mod loader — the usual route is a community mod manager (such as r2modman): pick this game, install, and it handles the loader and dependencies.
  3. For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; mods with listed dependencies need those installed as well.

Install locations vary a lot between mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.

Dependencies

Install these first, or the mod will not work:
