Motels, Pawn Shops, and a Little Side Hustle
Over the past couple of weeks, Ive been pouring a ton of work into the towns of Wayward Shadows, and Im excited to share the latest updates. Motels and pawn shops are now (almost) fully functional, and there are brand-new ways to scrape together some cash on the side. Heres a rundown of whats new and improved.
If you want any hope of taking down a werewolf or vampire, youll need the right tools for the job. Every town in Wayward Shadows now has a pawn shop stocked with a rotating selection of weapons and armor. The big news? It actually works now. Ive overhauled the inventory generation algorithm, and its a lot better now. What youll find on offer in the shops now depends on factors like the difficulty of your current case, how many days youve survived in your run, and a few other things.
Plus, Ive added improved tooltips, clearer feedback when buying or selling, and a bunch of polish to make the experience smoother. Your next monster-slaying upgrade is waitingassuming youve got the cash.
The energy/rest system has also gotten a major tune-up. Ive rebalanced energy regeneration during sleep, and it feels way better now. Fork over some cash to rent a room, and can sleep to get rid of those Tired or Exhausted debuffs. Thats rightalong with the motel overhaul, Ive introduced new debuffs that hit your hunters when you push them too long without a break. The hunter's energy level is now an important stat to keep your eye on.
Whats a hustle, you ask? Monster hunting doesnt exactly pay the bills, so sometimes youve got to get creative to keep the cash flowing. Thats where Hustles come inspecial actions you can take at certain locations to score some quick cash. These are high-risk, high-reward moves, though. Cheat at the pool table, hack an ATM, or swipe a tip jar, and you might walk away richer or you might attract the wrong kind of attention and get your butt handed to you if youre caught.
Its all about weighing the odds. You can play it safe, or roll the dice to stay cash flow positive.
With pawn shops, motels, and hustles now in the mixalongside all the other locations you can exploretowns in Wayward Shadows feel so much more dynamic. Theyre not just a backdrop for your cases anymore; theyre living, breathing hubs where every choice matters. Whether youre bartering for a new blade, catching some sleep, or risking it all on a shady gig, theres always something to do. As always, thanks for reading and following along with the development of Wayward Shadows. Im hammering away at a playable demo as fast as I can, but its not quite ready yet. Stick with meI cant wait for you to dive in and explore the game for yourself!

Making Towns in Wayward Shadows Feel Alive

Pawn Shops: Gear Up for the Hunt
If you want any hope of taking down a werewolf or vampire, youll need the right tools for the job.

Plus, Ive added improved tooltips, clearer feedback when buying or selling, and a bunch of polish to make the experience smoother. Your next monster-slaying upgrade is waitingassuming youve got the cash.
Motels: Rest Up or Burn Out
The energy/rest system has also gotten a major tune-up. Ive rebalanced energy regeneration during sleep, and it feels way better now. Fork over some cash to rent a room, and can sleep to get rid of those Tired or Exhausted debuffs. Thats rightalong with the motel overhaul, Ive introduced new debuffs that hit your hunters when you push them too long without a break.
