BUCKSHOT ROULETTE is a tabletop horror game that attempts to re-design the infamous game of Russian Roulette, replacing the traditional revolver with a proper 12-gauge pump-action shotgun. This extra firepower, and more importantly the different mechanics in handling a shotgun compared to a revolver, offers a fresh take on the classic and deadly game of chance.

The game takes place at the top of an underground nightclub, where the metal railings tremble to the pulse of long lost drum machines. A crooked AI dealer is waiting for you. Will you meet them?

FEATURES:

- 15 to 20 minute playthrough.
- Immersive & grounded tabletop gameplay, featuring diegetic systems and minimal UI.
- Unscripted rounds that offer unpredictable yet controllable outcomes, with a fair amount of replay value.
- A ruthless yet fair AI, that makes decisions based on what's on the table, rather than under it.

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS:

- Relatively modern dedicated graphics card (Vulkan support required)
- Windows or Linux (will not work on MacOS)

ALL ENDINGS

;

For such a simple concept, I really enjoyed playing this. The droned-out club music mixed with a super gritty art style was really well done. This was a great (and creepy) Russian Roulette sim. I had a great time editing this playthrough!

I realy liked the game, but not giving owners on here a steam key is fucking low. I gues this is what i get for chosing paying over piracy.

I would never have bought the game here if i knew it would be comming to steam later. Fuck this.

(+11)

This comment is the textbook example of "You can't please everyone"

I've seen someone say it's worth more than itch io and steam price combined. True. I've purchased it 2 days after release for $1.20, buying the steam for $3 would be still worth it, BUT I payed for it barely after it came out and they move to steam and leave itch io supporters for good, like we were just getting the beta. We get updates now a lot later than steam, we won't have multiplayer in the future. Like wtf dude, I didn't pay for you to leave me hanging so you could bring updates to people that bought it later(and mostly for a bit more, but yeah), it's like steam version is a DLC for us in an INDIE GAME. Idk. Game is still as good as it gets, but man dropping a steam key wouldn't hurt your ego.

DO NOT BUY!! The game is on steam and the dev does not care about those who have originally supported his game and wants to milk his fans for all their money. shitty design and robs those who had originally supported.

Make available for mac please?

игра прикольная, но не особо жуткая. Сама задумка очень классная и интересная, необычная. Советую!

i paid money for this here before it came to steam, its the same price on both sites, i should get all the features people who buy it on steam get, its just common sense.

(+3)

i have the same problem will i have to buy the game again or what

(-5)

yes you should! and in fact, you do.

(+2)(-1)

shitty design. those who supported first should be able to experience new content without having to pay again

amazing game!! nuff said!

One of the best soundtracks for an indie game in recent years. I was vibing a lot just listening to those pumping techno tracks. 

Game mechanics are easy to understand and very addictive. Visual style is amazing. It's grimy, rusty and overall sucks you in, it exists in the same universe as other Mike's games.

Legendary game at this point. Modern cult classic.

P.S. I purchased game on both platforms, to support the author. And got 100% achievements on steam. Can't wait to try multiplayer.

How does he make that iconic effect?????

probubly some special shaders / shader settings

(-5)

check it out!

I regret buying the game here and not through Steam
(+7)(-1)

I 100% get the complaints about the steam key stuff, but in my unprofessional opinion this game is worth way more than 6$ (the price of the itch version and steam version combined). In a universe where there is no steam release and the itch version simply got everything the steam one would get, do you think people would be mad if the itch version was 6$? My point is that I think what people are mad about isn't that they have to pay an extra 3 dollars, in fact i think a lot of the people complaining realise its value to be much higher as well. its something about them having to make a second purchase that is leaving a bad taste in their mouths.

As for me, I have no idea where I stand on this because I agree with both sides.

(+3)

Yeah pretty much.

If I have been supporting before steam I should be able to experience the same content. it feels like I've been robbed

it might be to you, but to me its not. Now i just feel scammed.

The best roulette game. So good, thank you, developers!

¿Aun actualizaras el juego para itch.io o solo para steam?

how can i play the 1.2 version

(+6)(-2)

If I have purchased the game on itch.io, can I have it for free on Steam or does it have to be purchased again?

(+3)(-2)

same question

(+3)(-1)

you dont get steam version free

you need to buy the game on steam even if you have it on itch.io

(+3)(-1)

mike has stated multiple times in various devlogs and updates that he will not be giving away steam keys.

(+3)(-1)

Why is he being a dick about this? I thought he was cool

(+3)

He is but this game is $3. When it's that cheap already you can't really give it out for free.

he could update the game for people who originally supported him, if I could go back I wouldn't have bought it then

(-3)

Can you please make a demo and for HTML FLash

(-2)

Muy buen juego, entretenido hasta el final!

(-2)

Hello, if i bought itch io version of game earlier, can i have a key or somethng for steam version? Not demand, just asking if it's possible.

(+4)(-2)

Same

(-1)

I think it's fair enough to ask about it tbh... But I think you will have to buy the steam version too (not sure about that)

mike has stated multiple times in various devlogs and updates that he will not be giving away steam keys.
