Greetings, High Rollers!

Been a while since we announced that were working on multiplayer, huh? Well, today we intend to fill the Dealer-shaped hole in your hearts with some good news, so crack open a nice and cold can of Digita, get your defibrillators ready and lets get right to it.

Multiplayer development status

As Mike mentioned in one of his Q&A answers, his style of development is mostly about figuring out the core mechanics, features, etc. and lots of polishing afterwards. So were happy to announce that were officially in the polishing stage of development. This doesnt really mean that we have a release date for you all today, but weve had the chance to tinker with the prototype and we had an absolute blast with it. We asked Mike to let us share a sneak peek into the current state of multiplayer, and heres a cute little screenshot he allowed us to show:
Expect to hear more about the particular mechanics of this mode closer to its public launch, but we hope that this little glimpse into Buckshot multiplayer will make the wait a little more bearable. But it wont take too long, hopefully. Speaking of things you can do before the multiplayer launch

BUCKSHOT ROULETTE IS 15% OFF ON STEAM SUMMER SALE

And that means you can prepare for the multiplayers inevitable arrival by getting a copy of Buckshot for yourself or for your friends youd want to have a dance between life and death with. (or just stuff Buckshot in your shopping cart along with some other games with decent discounts youre never gonna install after buying, we dont really mind that outcome as well.) But thats not all. We collabed with Strange Scaffold to bring you yet another Buckshot Roulette bundle, now with an incredible (and dearly beloved by us) indie gem El Paso, Elsewhere. Introducing Super Strange Indie Shooter Bundle. Our title game is on point, we know. You know the drill: you get a better deal on two great games, we get more people in our nightclub. A win-win for everyone.

And last, but not least, we have a quick announcement from CR Channel Crew.

As we continue to explore the medium of surreal and atmospheric experiences and push it further, were happy to announce that Arctic Eggs, a game from our friends at The Water Museum, is joining the CR Channel Crew and is available now on Steam for 20% off at Steam Summer Sale!

Can you fry eggs on top of Mount Everest? Should you even try? How many eggs, sardines and cigarettes does it even take to make an omelette? Find your answers in Arctic Eggs, a Sci-Fi cooking game where you take up the role of a Poultry Peddler stuck in Antarctica and longing for a way out. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2763670/Arctic_Eggs/ Thats all for today, High Rollers. Well return quite soon, but for now make sure to join the CR Channel Discord, because you never know, maybe well need some volunteers to test the Buckshot Roulette multiplayer or something. If youre gonna bet on someone, bet on yourself. And if that doesnt work out, double down on yourself. Mike Klubnika, CR Channel & VLT dard Electrons
