Undead West: Devlog #3 - “Guns”

Hey Gunslingers!

In the last devlog we went over how whiskey infusions work in Undead West. Now let’s talk about one of the most important parts of a cowboy’s arsenal: the guns.


💀 BUILDING YOUR PERFECT GUNSLINGER

In Undead West, there are many mechanics that work hand-in-hand with increasing the power and damage of your chosen weapon.

Whiskeys such as the Bottomless Chamber temporarily remove the need to reload, allowing you to fire as much as you want for a short time. Boons dropped by defeating bosses can offer you critical bullets, where there’s a 10% chance that a bullet you fire will deal double damage.

Which gun will work best with the possible benefits offered during the game? That’s up to you to choose.

💀 THE GUNS

There’s a variety of guns available for you to equip, each fitting the western-themed setting and filling a role for different styles of gameplay. Here are just a few to name:

Revolver
The trusty revolver, a classic staple to the gunslinger’s loadout.

Backup Piece
A revolver with a small clip but quick to fire and quick to reload.

Sawed Off
Close-range devastation. For those looking to get right into the thick of things, it’s not about accuracy - it’s a ‘one-two punch’.

Lever Action
Fast firing rifle designed for accuracy, having an 8-bullet magazine you can easily whittle your foes down from range.

Shotgun
Another up close and personal option with a larger clip than the Sawed Off.

Rifle
High stopping power and accuracy. Keep your distance and deal out strong damage per bullet.

💀 THE GUNSMITH

Guns are purchased from the Gunsmith, a blacksmith who crafts your weapons at his forge. You don’t know what he looks like under his helmet, but he makes some high quality weapons.

💀 UNTIL NEXT TIME!

At the moment, that’s all we wanted to share about what kind of weapons you can find to fit your playstyle - and there’s more being added down the line! Thanks for reading, and see you next time.
