Howdy fellow gunslingers!

Months have gone by and I love seeing that there are still people enjoying Colt Canyon. There are also new players still joining us, which is great to see. Better late than never! Today I have a small patch for you for fine-tuning the game. Overall I am happy with the state of the game though, so not much will change any time soon.

If you are skilled enough to reach your partner but struggle on the way back you will be glad to hear though that there are some minor balancing changes there to make it less frustrating. Your partner from now on will bleed out significantly slower, giving you much more time to react. There it should also be less risky to send your partner into combat, because as long as there are still fights going on your partner will never give up now, even when downed. Combined with the slight decrease in late-game enemies overall it should've never been easier to beat the game. However, if you still struggle to even reach your partner, you might simply need some more experience with the game. Try tweaking the run settings a bit. For example beating the game once without permadeath might just be what you need. It will prepare you for regular, permadeath runs and it doesn't even disable achievements, so no shame in that at all!

This patch should be compatible with existing run save games.

This update is now available on Steam and coming asap to all other PC platforms as well. I cant give an ETA on the console port. That one might take longer or might only come with the next bigger patch should there be one.

Please find the full changelog for Update 1.3.1.4 below or on the official Colt Canyon Wiki.

Shoutout again to everyone who is playing, enjoying and promoting Colt Canyon. This is what keeps me going! If you haven't done yet please also consider leaving a positive steam review.

Hey everyone,

First of all, thank you so much for all the support ❤️ I’ve noticed two or three bugs that have already been fixed, and I’ll try to push an update tomorrow or the day after to make sure they don’t affect your gameplay experience 🛠️

If you’re enjoying the game and want to help us out, please consider leaving a review ⭐

It’s incredibly important right now, especially right after launch, to keep us from falling into “Mixed” territory. I’ve talked to many of you already, and it seems like most really liked the game, so your review truly means the world to me 🙌

I’m deeply grateful for all your support and I’m here to listen to any questions, feedback, or bug reports you might have 💬

By the way, there’s a dedicated Bugs & Feedback section on the Steam forums where you can post any issues you find. Some of the annoying ones have already been fixed, but please keep reporting anything new 🐞

Thanks again from the heart,
Matt ❤️

Feeders,

Andy and I set out to build a small project along the lines of,
an incremental game that made financial sense for the time we’d put in.

For myself, it has been a rollercoaster of excitement, stress, worry, and more.

I would also describe it as a rocketship, and every time we think things are calming down...BAM!

It feels like THIS GIF. Absolute chaos, want to keep going, and can't take your eyes off the moment.

Thank you for feeding the black hole. 🖤🚀

Hello, survivors!

In this update, I'm excited to introduce a redesigned model for Jeff! He now looks more human and even creepier.

Additionally, I've made several important improvements based on your feedback:

• Improved Audio: The sound is now more spatial, making it much easier to pinpoint where Jeff is approaching from.

• Gameplay is More Forgiving: To give you a chance to breathe, Jeff will no longer enter certain rooms.

• New Glitch Effect: When Jeff gets close, you'll see and hear a distinct static glitch effect on your camera - that's your cue to run!

• Better Chance to Escape: I've slightly increased the player's speed and reduced Jeff's attack range. You now have a real chance to escape his grasp.

• More Jumpscares: The frequency of jumpscares has been increased. Stay alert!

Thank you for your support! I hope you enjoy the changes.

Sorry for the delay in the Halloween Event release. Unfortunately I was left without internet for the whole weekend as my ISP accidentally pinched one of the cables that transfers magical binary data to me.
