Gunslingers,

We’re proud to bring you an updated demo of Tombwater. If you’ve played before, we invite you to give the new and improved version a try, as there’s some meat to these changes!

Demo updates:

• New Feature: “Stagger” mechanics

  • Weapons now deal a variable amount of “stagger” points in addition to their other listed effects. Once sufficient “stagger” points have been accumulated onto an enemy, they will enter a “staggered” status effect and become temporarily stunned.

• New Loadout: The demo now has several additions to the equipment shop, allowing players who have previously experienced the demo to try out a few new charms and spells before launch:

  • Threads of Fate spell (must purchase Visceral Eye)

  • Ghost Caravan Wheel Spell (must purchase Caravan Eye)

  • Quicksilver Spur charm

  • Spiderwounds charm

• Feature Adjustment: “Ghost Seeds” (the item which allows you to recall your Wraith from the last death location) can now be utilized anywhere, instead of only at specific locations. 

• New Camera Option: “Look Ahead” toggle in the options menu allows the camera to move somewhat ahead of the character if you press against a wall.

• New Difficulty Option: “Corpse Run” mechanic can be turned off in the options menu, if a player desires a less challenging experience without worrying about loss of resources during a runback.

• Game Balance: Widespread balancing pass across all weapons and spells

• Over 150 bug fixes

• UI Improvements

• Performance Improvements

Tombwater will be participating in February’s Next Fest starting on Feb. 23. We really appreciate your support of the demo! If you like the experience, please leave us a review and wishlist the game. It really helps a lone cowboy out. You can also join our Discord to talk to the devs, give feedback, and get future updates. 

Stay safe and be wary of the madness.
