Colt Canyon - Retrific


Howdy fellow gunslingers!
Great to see that a lot of the new players stuck around and are still enjoying their time in the canyon. I gathered a lot of feedback and bug reports over the last weeks and therefore want to get this patch, which is addressing most of these reports, out as soon as possible.

So again this is mostly bug fixes, balancing changes and minor improvements. For example minor buffes for light ammo weapons and arrow weapons. Nerfing the bear boss, and a bunch of improvements to gamepad input and the camera.

Your existing save games should also work just fine with this update, so you can continue your in-progress run and enjoy the improvements without having to restart from scratch, just in case you had already a run going on.

This patch will also come to all other platforms as soon as possible, for real this time.

Please find the changelog for Update 1.3.1.3 below or on the official Colt Canyon Wiki.

Changelog:
  • Increased amount of light ammo dropped slightly
  • Tweaked movement stats of weapons to make default movement slightly faster when using light ammo, arrow or throwable weapons

Howdy fellow gunslingers!

This is just a small patch. A lot of these changes were already integrated in the public Steam version as part of a hotfix shortly after 1.3.1.0 - But now I've added a couple of additional bug fixes and am releasing this patch with a new game version and official release announcement.

This patch will not affect your existing saves, you should be able to continue your run.

This patch will also come to all other platforms (incl. Xbox One) as soon as possible. But please keep in mind that we are deep into the holiday season which makes a release for all platforms before next year very unlikely. On Steam you will be able to enjoy this patch rightaway though.

v 1.3.1.1
  • Added 240 Hz option to frame rate setting
  • Increased accuracy when walking by 20%
  • Slightly increased Muzzle Brake upgrade's effect but reduced its silencing effect
  • Slightly increased cooldown reduction of Hipfire upgrade
  • Increased knockback resistance and view distnace on enemies when looping beyond L1
  • Reduced amount of medicine drops in crates when looping
  • When looping now spawning additional traps in first area
  • Not spawning locked bonus health crates in loop 2 and beyond, instead spawning more locked shield crates
  • Changed aim assist behavior on explosive barrels and destructible objects behind solid obstacles
  • Disabled aim assist targeting tamable dog
  • Fixed some traps (e.g. explosive mines) sometimes spawning behind obstacles, making them impossible to spot
  • Fixed a specific rock sometimes being rendered incorrectly
  • Fixed rare varmint rifle being bugged
  • Fixed cursor fading out faster if running at higher refresh rate
  • Fixed scrolling in menus being slower when running at high refresh rate
  • Fixed a crash related to Mine entrances
  • Fixed locked crate key sometimes not being dropped
  • Fixed "Catch this!" not being unlockable when wolves are disabled
  • Fixed companions despawning when bleeding out while out of view
  • Fixed aim assist being set to 200% by default instead of intended 150%
  • Fixed character outside the view randomly attacking

All the best and thanks for playing!

Howdy fellow gunslingers!
It was fantastic seeing all of you excited for patch 1.3! I got a lot of valuable feedback from the community and also made a lot of play testing myself. That's how a minor patch became this major update. Basically Update 1.3 Part 2. Packed with bug fixes, overhauls and balancing tweaks and even some small new mechanics and props.

Some of the more exciting changes are combinable shields, increased ammo cap, some new decorations/secrets, loadout changes, improved weapon power level indicators and reworked weapon spray + crosshair system. There are also a ton of tweaks to most, if not all, weapons. So now is the time for giving all weapons another try!

Let's talk about the shield change some more:
You should find more shields in general now, which can combine into a single stronger shield once you've collected 3 undamaged ones of the same level. This is mostly to reduce clutter in the HUD when you manage to collect tons of shields because you are just that good (lucky) and to make finding more shields, even when you already have a bunch, more rewarding, since the improved shields will be more resistant to penetration and have more health.



Another interesting change concerns the the weapon power levels, that are driving the red glow on weapon names when interacting with weapon drops. These are now based on the actual weapon stats and longer just some hardcoded value I made up myself. This means the indicator is now taking into account damage, range, ammo cost, melee stats, movement stats and much more in order to calculate whether weapon A is "better" than weapon B. Being calculated by this raw data allows the indicator to be much more detailed, showing a red glow even if the weapon is only slightly better and even improving cross-ammo type comparison. It will also indicate when a dropped gun has worse overall stats now, by flashing gray instead of glowing red. It's still very subtle, but I hope this will help players more consistently and easily identify whether a weapon swap might be worth it.



However, while this is based on the actual stats it does not take into account your current situation and play style, so for example how much ammo you have, what characer you are playing, how good you are at dodging and aiming or what your secondary weapon is. Therefore your own skill and experience is still necessary in order to decide whether swapping weapons makes sense. Never blindly trust the indicator! Always think before you swap.

Overall I think (yet again) that right now is the best time to start playing, or come back to play some more, Colt Canyon. The game has never been this polished before!

However, unless the game suddenly goes viral do not expect any more big patches for the game. It's time for me to move on to new projects. I cannot afford to spend more time on this game.
Thank you for your support! And please stay in touch by following and joining the discord.

This patch will also be coming to all consoles and other platforms as soon as possible. Some stores require extensive submission processes that might delay the release by a few days or in some cases even weeks, but expect all platforms to get this update soon.

Attention: Due to breaking changes in the save system you will not be able to continue runs in v1.3.1 that were started in previous versions. To continue your existing save make sure switch to the version-1300 beta branch before starting a new run.

Find the overview changelog for Update 1.3.1 below or the full changelog on the official Colt Canyon Wiki.

Changelog:
  • Shields will now combine into a stronger shield when you have 3 of them. The default shield is no longer yellow but white (in HUD).
  • Increased default ammo cap, from 40 to 50, and from 75 to 80 for light ammo

Howdy fellow gunslingers!
It's been a while. But there are still some people left fighting for their lives in the canyon. So I couldn't help myself but visit the canyon one more time. And now I am back and bring you patch 1.3! Packed with balancing changes, a bunch of QoL changes, many bug fixes and of course the most interesting change: Ridable horses! Steam players are part of the lucky few that get to play with the horses first! All other platforms will have to wait some longer. (Join the discord or follow on social media to stay up-to-date)

Over the last months I noticed how valuable time is. I do not have as much time to work on my own games as I used to have. And with this realization I decided that I should give my players some options to more efficiently conquer the canyon and use the little free time they have more fairly. The logical next step after the last big update, which introduced save games to allow the players to take breaks on their journey through the canyon, was therefore to add something that allowed player's to move through the canyon more efficiently in general. The horses were right there, so it only made sense to actually make them useful, by allowing you to borrow them for a quick ride.



Hopefully, this will reduce the time you spend wandering aimlessly through the level, trying to find that last crate you haven't smashed into pieces yet. Especially for low movement character this will be a true game changer. But also in general it will make backtracking finally an actual option, just in case the previous level's merchant did offer something useful that you just haven't been ready to purchase at the time but also can't be bothered to walk all the way back for.

There are also some other changes in the patch that will reduce the time you waste wandering around. Like some in-game hints on where to find that locked crate and more starter ammo! With these changes I hope that the mix between exploration, looting and combat is just right now. But of course in the end, the player is always the one to decide how much exploration or how much combat they like to have. Which is also why wolves and elites are "optional" now, and can be turned off in the run settings. But these are just some of the changes to expect.



Find the best parts of the changelog for Update 1.3 below or the full changelog on the official Colt Canyon Wiki.

Changelog:

Big changes:
  • Made horses ridable
  • Switched to true 64-bit builds and updated engine (may cause new bugs—report accordingly)
  • Added Steam Rich Presence
  • Added new upgrade that makes throwables indestructible (available after acquiring Big Knife, Hardened, and Pocket Magnet)
  • Added dedicated interface animation reduction setting
  • Added run settings options for disabling wolves and elites
  • Added game settings to reset or hide tutorials
  • Made locked crates easier to find (look out for signs)
  • Changes to most loadouts, mostly increasing starter ammo and making late-game loadouts more rewarding
  • Added a free stick of dynamite to all rare loadouts

Balancing changes:
  • Made all two-handed weapons one-handed, except for the gatling gun
  • Buffed explosive weapons, melee weapons and a bunch of rifles, but nerfed some arrow weapons
  • Buffed "Big Knife" upgrade to increase range and hit count
  • Reduced the number of enemies in B levels and Area 3 slightly

  • Companions will now refuse to use some of the high-tier weapons
  • Increased bleed-out time for companions

  • Allowing "Welcome To Hard Times" achievement unlock when starting a looped run from run settings

  • Unrescued prisoners and other friendlies, except merchants, are killed/removed when returning in B-Levels
  • Alerted human enemies and wolves will get more resistant against melee attacks when looping

Howdy fellow gunslingers!

This is just a small patch. There was a bug that sneaked through all the way until now that prevented ambushes from being a thing. You probably thought I would never notice and all of you could live happily ever after without having to worry about ambushes and I bet there have been a few new speedrun world records. But the achievement hunters noticed ambushes never occuring and now it's time to end this madness.

If you still prefer your runs without ambushes you can still turn them off in the run settings.

This patch is also going to be released on all other platforms soon. Xbox should go live any minute now! Xbox was highest priority here since it didn't get the latest 1.2.1.1 revision. Sorry for that, but getting stuff patched on consoles just takes forever and there was some small miscommunication between me and my pubisher. The long processes on consoles are also why the physical release took a bit longer than expected. While it's in production now it will sadly not be shipping this year. Sorry for that delay.

v 1.2.1.2
  • Made some bandits slightly more accurate and more aggressive
  • Fixed ambushes not being a thing
  • Fixed shadows sometimes not being visible
  • Fixed a bug where pausing the game during level generation breaks the run
  • Fixed objectlist command

All the best and thanks for playing!
Jonathan

Edit Jan 5, 2023:
Published Patch 1.2.1.3 to fix solid level borders not being restored in loaded levels.

Howdy fellow gunslingers!
I hope you already had some fun with the new optional permadeath mode and save system! If not, now is the time!

New Patch
Today I got a big pack of fixes for you, addressing a lot of issues that were reported over the last weeks. The patch is live right now on all platforms, including Xbox, PlayStation and Switch. If you experience any issues with the latest patch please always make sure to report the problem. I am reading every single report and try by best to react to it as fast as possible. Best way to reach out to me is via discord!

Physical Edition
For everyone owning a PlayStation or Nintendo Switch I got some more exciting news: Pre-Orders for the Colt Canyon physical release are open right now! We teamed up with Red Art Games to create a limited physical edition that you can pre-order now and get delivered later this year, of course with the patch 1.2.1.1 pre-applied! And if you don't own a console, go order a physical version anyway, because it's super limited to about a thousand copies and therefore a rare collectors item! (and of course it also supports the development of Colt Canyon).

So, if you got a few bucks to spare for a solo developer's first physical release, go grab your copy here:
https://www.redartgames.com/presentation?rp=colt-canyon

Howdy fellow gunslingers!
Last major update (1.2) did not go over quite as smoothly as planned. A bunch of bugs sneaked through and while the PC version got a hotfix shortly after (with some issues still remaining to this day) all console players were out of luck and stuck with 1.1 or a somewhat broken 1.2. I am very sorry for that inconvenience and that we didn't catch these issues earlier. But today this will hopefully be forgotten. I spent a lot of time reworking remaining issues and finding new approaches to allow all features to work cross-platform and hopefully without any issues, and additionally managed to add an interesting new feature.

Obviously, while console players will be mostly interested in finally getting the save and continue functionality, PC players will mostly be interested in the spicy new feature, which I think will change how players play Colt Canyon:

OPTIONAL PERMADEATH!



When setting up a new run you will now find a new option tucked away in your run settings menu! Turn off permadeath and enjoy the comfort of not losing all your progress when dying. Instead you will get the option to retry from the last checkpoint, which usually is the moment you entered the current level.

The best thing for all casual achievement hunters: Disabling permadeath will not disable achievements!
Obviously it will not have as much prestige this way, but at least you will be able to complete your collection. Steam Leaderboards are exclusive to permadeath players though. Oh, and permadeath will also not be optional once you've completed the second loop. So don't expect to keep playing the same save forever and ever.



And to all you permadeath fanatics: Let people enjoy things! It's been more than two years now, it's time for Colt Canyon to also allow more casual fun.

Have fun!

Update 1.2.1 is now available on PC, PlayStation and Xbox right now! Switch is in review and will follow as soon as possible.

Find the full changelog for Update 1.2.1 below or on the official Colt Canyon Wiki.

Changelog:
  • Added run setting to disable permadeath, by allowing to restore the last save instead of deleting the savegame on death
  • Added quick save and load keys on PC (F5 & F6) when having permadeath disabled
  • No longer allowing 50% boss health, enemy attention nor 150% health drops without disabling achievements, but you can disable permadeath without disabling achievements now
  • Tweaked some UI elements
  • Decreased movement bonus enemies get in loops
  • Reduced amount of elite enemies in loops
  • Increased coyote base damage
  • Decreased reload times / cooldown times of a bunch of guns
  • Increased damage of explosive weapons
  • Slightly decreased accuracy, shield damage, active reload period and penetration power of arrow weapons
  • 20% of all arrows previously reusable with Premium Arrows upgrade will no longer be reusable
  • Decreased bonus damage of Premium Arrows upgrade and no longer granting bonus damage to throwables
  • Reduced amount of weapon crates in loops, but slightly increased regular crate amount
  • Fixed instance references not being restored correctly from savegame
  • Fixed movement history not being part of savegames
  • Fixed weapons in crates not being loaded from savegame
  • Fixed some sprite placement issues on the game over screen
  • Fixed enemies being duplicated when following to different level
  • Fixed issues where a loaded level is treated as a different level while still loading, causing stuff like green locked crates showing up in area one
  • Fixed companion weapon ammo duplication glitch
  • Fixed upgrade titles glitching into each other in pause menu
  • Fixed some issues with scrolling menus

See you in the canyon!
