The Dealer Plushies Pre-order, Steam Community Items. Patch 1.2.1 and more

Greetings, High Rollers.

Today we just wanted to say ‘thank you’ to everyone who supported BUCKSHOT ROULETTE over these past few days. We are now officially past the 500k sales mark, and we’re choosing to keep going and Double it!

Whether you took on The Dealer yourself or watched someone do that on a live stream, we hope you experienced as much joy as we had watching you having fun with new items (and struggling with the new AI). Once again, from the bottom of our hearts, Thank You!

Before we continue with celebratory stuff, let's talk about important matters — patch 1.2.1 is now LIVE! We've fixed a lot in this update, like the permanent on-screen blood in OpenGL, the balance, the controller inputs and also introduced the color-blind mode!



But we don’t want to leave you empty-handed just yet, so we have a few fun announcements!

Firstly, starting today, you can pre-order your very own plushie Dealer (blank and live shells are not included) from our friends at Makeship:



We’re also working on some other Buckshot Roulette merch, and we can share some of the ideas and designs right now!

[h2]Trading Cards and Community Items[/h2]
Up next: Steam Trading Cards and community items! We noticed a significant demand for those, so we can officially announce that we’re working on them! Stay tuned for more info later this month.

And finally, a lot of you seemed to like our new key art made by Dr. Jewel (aka @juerucj on Twitter), so as a token of our gratitude, we made some sick wallpapers to embellish your PC. Download them and have The Dealer watch you judgingly every time you see your desktop screen.

Oh, and just as we were writing this, we’ve reached 10k members in our Discord servers, so we’d love to thank everyone who joined in! And if you’re not at our Discord, please consider joining in — since we’re working on multiplayer implementation, we might open an earlier beta access for them!

See you around, high rollers. The night is still young.

This new indie horror game is already rated 96% on Steam, and it's $3

Evoking the sinister vibes of Inscryption and the Resident Evil 7 DLC that sees you playing a deadly game of Blackjack at the whim of creepy antagonist Lucas Baker, Buckshot Roulette is a life-or-death indie horror game that just arrived on Steam following a hugely positive response to its initial release via Itch.io in December 2023. Available for less than $3, it's already reaching a peak Steam player count of over 8,000 concurrent players and has an 'overwhelmingly positive' 96% review score across nearly 4,000 user reviews.
