One question remains, Contractors...

[h2]Where are we dropping? 🪂[/h2]

Steam Release: Delayed

[h2]Dear Contractors,[/h2]

We are very sad and frustrated to announce that we've faced some unforeseen technical difficulties with the Steam build of Contractors Showdown, preventing us from launching on Steam as planned on April 25th. This delay will not affect the Meta Store release, and it will go live as planned on April 25th, at 10 AM PST.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience and frustration caused by the delay. We are working as hard and fast as possible with Valve to resolve this issue as soon as possible.

To compensate for this, Contractors Showdown will have a 10% discount at release for a short period of time, as well as a bundle with Contractors.

We'll continue to work diligently and provide a solid update once a new release date is confirmed. Thank you again for your understanding and continued support. We can't wait to get Contractors Showdown into your hands.

Sincerely,
Caveman Studio
