Tango Fiesta News

[p]We're delighted and sad!

It is bittersweet to say that we're officially stopping support for Tango Fiesta and its DLC, but we hope those of you who enjoyed it still do think of it fondly. This does mean bugs won't be fixed, and support will not be available for the game as we concentrate on the enxt exciting chapter for the studio - Trash Goblin and whatever comes after it![/p][p][/p][p]We learned a lot making TF and FF4K - and made a ton of amazing memories too - and are proud to have used the DLC to raise money for charity! Speaking of which, we're making the final donation from sales of FF4K - once more sending money to the Stephen Lawrence Day Foundation (originally the Stephen Lawrence Trust) and The Advancement Project. We're taking the entire sales from the DLC since our last donation, and instead of splitting it we're just going to send the exact same amount to each charity. As mentioned above, we're super proud to have been able to make these donations, so thank you to all of you out there who helped us make a difference.[/p]

We've discounted the game for the Steam Winter Sale, please do leave a review if you enjoy it!

And meanwhile, we recently announced our brand new game Trash Goblin - there's a free demo and tons of exciting info on this cosy shopkeeping RPG over on its page.

Well now!

After ShogunAsh just completely wrecked our leaderboards.... well we thought some balance changes were in order. Plus you know, some things just weren't as fun as we'd hoped, and... yeah we kinda lost a bet with ShogunAsh and we had to make a new gun for the game.

It's called - what else - the ShoGun, and we even recorded new Arnie VO for it! Here it is in glorious action:



ShogunAsh's fave guns are burst fire, so we had to make it another one of those. It's most useful against big crowds, so the later you get it, the more useful it will be.

It's exclusive to Fascism Fighters 4000, and has a rare chance to be in any Weapon Crate. In fact, the chance increases the more times you don't pick it up, so live long enough and you'll see it!

And yup, we've re-balanced the game to make sure it's a lot harder to reach the tipping point that meant you could basically roll over enemies with a combo of a large squad and plentiful Health Pack drops... we think we've hit a good balance now, and even in the late game you have to stay on your toes, avoid as much damage as possible, and prioritise enemies that drop Health Packs.

[h2]Full changelist: [/h2]

• New weapon -the ShoGun. Burst fire. Added to pool of weapons, rare chance to start with, increases every time you pick up any other weapon. Chance resets once you get it. Brand new Arnie VO on pickup.
  
  
• Super Health Kit added. Rare chance to drop, if you're under 40% of your Health. Restores a ton of HP, makes things exciting when it appears!
  
  
• Fixed a bug that meant you couldn't aim when reloading, or with an empty gun.
  
  
• Reduced the Burner's capacity to 2 clips.
  
  
• Reduced the HP restored by each normal Health Kit.
  
  
• Capped the number of Health Kits that can be spawned, with 3 at any one time. This helps stop the steamrolling.
  
  
• Combo Multiplier capped at 30, to keep the leaderboards healthy and competitive.
  
  
• Rocket Launcher reload time reduced to 2.5 seconds. Now not quite the disappointment it used to be early in the game, where keeping your combo going with it was incredibly challenging.
  
  
• Fixed a bug that saw Champion enemies dropping more than one Weapon Crate.
  
  
• Champions don't always drop a Health Kit now.
  
  
• Reset the leaderboards (don't worry we archived the old ones!)
  

And that's that! Enjoy, and see you on the leaderboards, and tell us what you think on our discord!

When we launched Fascism Fighters 4000 we promised we'd pass all the proceeds - by topping up from sales of the base game where necessary to counter tax and Valve's store cut - to charities fighting racial inequality, and supporting Black Lives Matter causes.

Well, we thought today would be a good day to do it for the first time!



We're incredibly happy to donate $100 split equally to two charities - and endlessly thankful to you lovely lot for making it possible.



$50 has been donated to the Stephen Lawrence Trust:



...and another $50 has been donated to The Advancement Project, but we're waiting on them sending the receipt 😅

We couldn't have done this without you!

but that's not where it ends. We've got a patch incoming for the game, which includes a bunch of balance changes, and a BRAND NEW GUN named after the wonderful British streamer by the name of ShogunAsh, who utterly smashed our leaderboards. Mad respect to him, and now he's immortalised as part of the game.

Keep an eye out for that dropping soon, and in the meantime the 35 of you who have wishlisted it could help to make the next donation EVEN BIGGER! Let's gooooo!
