About the Game

Mexico has just ceded the California territory to the United States. When a miner is murdered after finding California gold, his spirit seeks to lead others to enact revenge. Every encounter along the way presents a unique challenge with multiple solutions. What will you do if an outlaw camp is in your path? Carefully sneak around, go in guns blazing, or lure a wild bear straight into their midst? This "western roguelite" allows you to choose a Wild West career, load up on supplies, and journey through a randomly generated west filled with glory and silly deaths

KEY FEATURES:

  • Be the Cowboy You Want - How will you make it west? Shoot everything in sight? sneak past dangerous enemies? Or live off the land and avoid combat all together?
  • Sneak, shoot, and stab your way through the Wild West with randomly generated environments like the forest, desert and mountains.
  • Unlock new hats and equipment to give a new strategy to your next attempt.
  • Manage your food, ammo, bandages, and more in your struggle to survive
  • Hours of game play, even in Alpha!
  • Get cholera, dysentery, broken limbs, and more!
  • Scavenge for supplies while you travel the west
  • Stop at towns to trade, take on missions, and resupply
  • Fight off outlaws
  • Bears, wolves, and other critters
  • A weather system and day night cycle
  • Dead for good! - Permadeath means when you eventually die, there's no coming back. The constant threat of death means every decision adds tension
  • Hilarious tombstones when you die
