v1.2 - Out now on Steam, releasing on itch.io April 18th.


Buckshot Roulette v1.2 is out now on Steam, and will be releasing on itch.io April 18th. 

The reason for a 2-week delay on itch is that some of the new features are created with Steam tools, and because of this I'm not able to push the update on itch.io immediately. I want to take 2 weeks to make sure that all the early itch.io supporters get a fun and bug-free experience.

Following Steam’s rules and requirements, once the v1.2 update is released on itch.io, the price of the game will be changed from 1.20$ to 2.99$. Because there will be certain features in future updates that rely on Steam tools, there are going to be differences between the itch and Steam versions.

Currently, only the online leaderboard and achievements are features that won't be present in the itch.io v1.2 release as they rely on Steam. So if you have less interest in those features, an itch.io copy might be a better choice, and if you’re planning to grab a copy off itch.io at the original price before the update, now may be a good time.

There will also be a multiplayer mode coming to Steam after the initial release. I cannot share any specific details and dates right now, but rest assured there's enough shells for everyone. If you're interested in trying the multiplayer as soon as it comes out, There's a 10% launch discount on Steam that will last for 7 days.

Keep an eye out for a post-launch announcement outlining future updates and the differences between this release and the Steam one in more detail, so players can have a better idea of which version they prefer. If you already own the game on itch.io, then you will receive all future updates that don't rely on Steam tools for free, including v1.2 on April 18th.

I understand that this might be disappointing to those who purchased the initial release on itch.io and can't access features that are using Steam, but moving forward development will be a lot smoother with the tools that are available on the Steam platform.

Thank you for the continued support.

danos una steam key porfavor

Are we able to get a free steam key for ourselves after buying it on itch.io

(+3)

Does it update itself or should I install it again?

If you installed it via the itch.io PC app, it should automatically update.
If you downloaded the .zip from the itch.io website, you’ll have to download it again.

hey no problem..its good to see that the itch kickstarter project was a success. i dont get people complaining about 3bucks extra on steam and on the other hand running arround with a 20$ fortnite skin :))

i like the game and saw its potential.

bought it here and 6x on steam.

mark my wordsi'll buy this game on every platform and every device of where it would be released in the future.

You just assume people that bought this game have 20$ fortnite skins because...?

Also same principle applies, they haven't paid for it twice to have those skins on 2 platforms?

Ever considered there are people that don't have the funds or live in poorer countries? Easy to forget them or kids

Maybe some of them just have enough brain to understand that they shouldn't pay twice for something for no reason and it's a sh*tty move from the devs side. Who know's

Did we get a key on steam or something in the game for buying it here?? I would like a special treat better that a steam key, because we supported this game at the beginning and a skin or something would be incredible

(+2)(-2)


i bought this game do i have to pay 2.90$ when 1.2 releases?

(+2)

No. Only if you want the steam version.

I know it's unlikely that a publisher will allow you to distribute steam keys to players who have an itch version, I'm willing to pay another price for the steam version, it's not expensive, but at the very least, please develop and distribute a DLC that is exclusive to the early backers, for players who had an itch version but later bought the steam version. This is a payback to the early supporters, and if there is no compensation for betraying the early supporters on your happy and widely distributed game, I don't think anyone will ever want to buy a game on itch again because they will be backstabbed by a later steam version. please, don't make us sad, we don't care about 12 RMB (or 3 USD), but we care about your attitude towards us, we love you and support your creativity and behavior, but don't let us lose the motivation to love you. Thank you and love from all the early supporters.

if u give me skins or sum shi, ill buy the steam version.. but im definitively not paying for the same game TWICE. What u did is just wild, i actually paid for the game here on itch thinking that someday we´d have a multiplayer version and I wanted to support it from the beginning. Then u release the game on Steam without notifying anyone and tell me that the multiplayer version will be there?

Nahh, I´d not pay.

(+3)(-2)

Nice! Pre-ordered

I think the same since we bought it here...  and as they say, it is not very expensive but at the end of the day I would like to be able to enjoy an update that was thanks to the fact that we all supported this creator because we loved the game and now we are left with a version in which we cannot enjoy everything that is The achievement seems unfair to me. I hope you can give us a key for Steam...

I typically don't like joining on the whiner train of "gib steam keys pls", but this definitely feels like a moment where just handing out steam keys to early supporters feels like the right move. We are literally getting an inferior version of the game for making it popular.

Sure, it isn't wildly expensive. I think i paid like $2 for this, but i already bought it once. This would be an absolute scandal had this been any other more expensive game.

Demon Roulette Update Suggestions

1. Overdue medicine changes to painkillers, painkillers: can only be used once in your own round. After use, the upper limit of physical strength will be temporarily increased by two points and two points of physical strength will be temporarily increased. The effect will end at the end of the other round.

2. Treatment and poison: Apply it to the muzzle of the gun. If it is empty, it will restore a little physical strength. If it is a live bullet, this damage +1

3. Hand saw: 2 points of damage caused by the shotgun is changed to 2 times the damage caused by the shotgun (real bullet + potion + hand saw = 4 points of damage)
