== History ==

Jabroni Brawl started out as a revival and successor of Jimbomcb's Jaykin' Bacon: Source, a(n ironically) HL1DM/GoldSrc mod, with "a bunch of incongruous weapons, and a bunch of incongruous maps" and gamemodes inspired by Rocket Crowbar and Scientist Hunt.<ref>https://www.moddb.com/mods/jaykin-bacon-source</ref> The revival of Jabroni Brawl 3 was originally called ''Jaykin' Bacon: Episode 3'', a nod to Valve not releasing a third episode of the [[Half-Life 2]] episodic series. The project was led by Jimbomcb and postal.

The project went on a hiatus after the announcement in February 2014. In April 2018, postal announced the project was still being worked on, attributing the hiatus to the other project lead's real-life job, various SDK bug fixes that had made the mod unstable, and an attempted port to Unreal Engine 4.<ref>https://www.moddb.com/games/jabroni-brawl-episode-3/news/yet-another-punctual-update</ref>

On July 11th, 2018, the project announced it was rebranding to Jabroni Brawl: Episode 3.<ref>https://www.moddb.com/games/jabroni-brawl-episode-3/news/jabroni-brawl-revival-update-2</ref>
