We've added a bit more variety to the pits added in the last update, as well as fixed a couple of minor glitches
The change affects the width and placement of the pits, giving more variety in their appearance rather than affecting gameplay too much
The glitches fixed were aslo visual in nature, relating to the underground areas, and would have only affected some players
We hope you like the update
Pits and Ladders
Happy Halloween!
We've made some improvements to Steampunk Graveyard with a few tweaks and additions in our Pits and Ladders update, just in time for Halloween
The changes include: - Ladders are easier to climb with the player sticking to them better - Pits have been added in the underground area that can provide areas to hide or additional danger - Tweaked the level generation to encourage more exploration of both the above and below ground areas - The large brain-powered mechanoids now bounce you away if you try to run past them
If you don't already have the game, we have a 50% off sale running from October 21st to November 4th and you can buy the game in a bundle with our other games for an extra discount.
A New Price
Hello everyone,
We've dropped the price and we're having a sale!
It's been a few years since we released Steampunk Graveyard, so we thought it might be time to permanently lower the price
To celebrate the new price, we're running a sale and we've discounted the price even further - a strange way to celebrate a price drop, we know!
We've also similarly reduced the price of our other games that have been out for a few years too - get them all in a bundle for an extra discount
Anyway, we hope you like the new price
Halloween Update
We've given Steampunk Graveyard a significant update for Halloween with a new game mode as well as various fixes and improvements
The update includes: - New "Daily Challenge" mode with a repeatable level - Health bottles no longer destroyed by bullets - Additional background details for Halloween - Giant Mecha-Zombies crush obstacles in their path and block grenades - Fixed issue with the Baron not appearing correctly in some levels - Reworked cinematic scenes
We hope you enjoy this update
Quality of Unlife Update
We've made a few quality of life (or unlife) changes that should improve the gameplay experience and overall make Steampunk Graveyard more fun to play.
The main changes include: - Reduced loading times for levels - Additional visual and audio indicator when enemies are killed - Additional visual diversity in levels - Reduced damage from explosions and gas clouds - Grenade throwing enemies better able to launch over obstacles
There was also an engine update and a few settigns tweaks.
If you've not yet purchased Steampunk Graveyard, we will be putting the game on sale soon, so keep an eye out for that.
Story & Control
While working on our new game, Gorilla Guerrillas, we added remappable controls and we thought "why not add that to Steampunk Graveyard too?", so we did and here's the update.
Included in update: - Remappable keyboard and gamepad controls - A short story mode added to ease player into the game - Random Level generator is now a separate menu item - Bigger damage area for explosions - Updated menus and options - Zoomed in closer to the action by default (can adjust with - and +) - Tweaked random level generation
We've just released an update for Steampunk Graveyard which includes fixes to a few issues raised by players, adds greater variation in the generated levels, and includes a small story segment to help add context to the game.
Main changes:
- Near screen enemies continue to patrol so will come back on screen
- Updated boss weapon behaviour to target player better
- 2 second invulnerability after initial damage of landing in thorns so you can slash them or jump away
- Added environment variations with different trees, flowers, sky, etc.
- Added more level layout variations with slopes, dips, etc.
- Added small story segment for context of the Baron's motivation
We hope you enjoy this update and look forward to adding more improvements in the future.
