We'd like to thank you warmly for all your support and enthusiasm since the launch. Your passion and valuable feedback have been a huge source of inspiration for our team. Stay tuned for more! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2084000/Shogun_Showdown/

Hello everyone! We've got some more fixes coming today! That's not a lot, but we felt that you wanted to have a way to lock the Scroll wheel. It's now possible! Enjoy!

Patchnote 0.5.7 :

• Fixed a bug with the interaction between the 'Damaging Move' and the 'Back Stabber' skills.
• New option in "Controls -> Scroll Wheel" to disable the scroll wheel input.
• Fixed some descriptions and translations

Hello everyone! We had issues with the Steam Cloud. Long story short, it only worked between the same OS, and, only the metaprogression was saved. But if you stopped mid-run to continue on another computer, you'd have to start your run over again From now on, you should be able to keep your save and ongoing run saved to the cloud, no matter which OS you use! The main use-case of this would be with the Steamdeck, being able to save and quit on PC then continue your run on Steamdeck. Talking about Steamdeck, someone in the team made an unofficial gamepad layout, so you've got a layout to play with before the official gamepad support comes. Have a fantastic week!

Hey there! Here's the changelog for the first small update of Shogun Showdown! We adressed some bugs we/you found A lot of you folks requested to be able to unassign/lock the mouse wheel. It requires a bit of translation, so it's not in this first small update, but this will come! Later (but it'll be in a major update), our plan is to let you rebind your keys (and buttons when there will be gamepad support) as you want! Thank you so much for your kind messages since EA launch, and here's the changelog!

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a soft-lock situation when entering a reward room with only maxed-out tiles.
• Fixed a soft-lock situation in the Twin boss fight when one twin is killed by being pushed on a trap.
• Fixed a soft-lock situation when both player and Shogun die in the same turn.
• Fixed a major bug involving incompatible alpha-version save files (from an old itch.io alpha version) causing startup errors.
• Fixed minor localization and translation issue.
