Updates


As for patches and updates, we're proud to share we've been busy taking your feedback and fixing a few bugs! Thank you so much to everyone who has taken the time to send a support email; you're how the west was won.

Fixes:

  1. An issue where traps weren’t counting as Araknit kills to unlock a game item has been patched
  2. An issue where enemies could not see through traps has been fixed

Known Bugs/Under Investigation:

  1. The Minecart Achievement/Outfit is triggering even without perfecting the minecart sequence. It should only unlock after perfecting the minecart sequence.
  2. The collectible UI does not present consistently in some menus
  3. Audience shadows may disappear after looking at a poster
  4. A chase sequence is triggered without animated if the user accesses the menu in a transition
  5. A few minor menu/transition bugs

Добро пожаловать в Русское сообщество!


Last, but not least, we are very proud to be testing a dedicated Russian channel in our Discord for our Russian community!!! This gives us a new way to interact with one of our largest international fanbases in a new way. While we get comfortable growing and stretching in our new Discord digs, please be patient for any new features and stop by any time at discord.gg/ShowdownBandit

We'll see you back and the ranch, friends!

Welcome and Quick Patch Notes!



Howdy friends! We're listening to your feedback and have already taken action on a few suggestions and bugs! Unfortunately, we won't be adopting all of your ideas (though they're great!) as some fall outside of the scope of the game, fundamental design intentions, or are beyond the resources we have at our modest indie studio. Just know we are combing through your detailed comments and appreciate all of the kind words you are also sharing! We are beyond overjoyed to FINALLY offer you Episode 1 in what has set the stage for a fantastic adventure.

The most important Patch Notes for today are:

  1. The locked door not registering an unlock in the "crossroads" room has been fixed
  2. Subtitles or now included
  3. A few miscellaneous bugs inclduing doors or ability to grab items has been resolved

More is coming, so when you do come across a bug, please do your part and make sure it is seen! The way to ensure your feedback is seen is to submit via email following the instructions on this pinned post.

Please note the demo versions (available for FREE on GameJolt and itch.io) will not be benefiting from all of these patches as they are intended to be a low-labor opportunity for us to give you a taste for the game, and the Steam version takes precedent.

Keep sharing your ideas, art, and experiences with us! We'll see you all back at the ranch ;)
