May 14th, 2025 - Demo Patch v0.2.3

Howdy gunslingers!

As you may have realized, Tombwater is a town enveloped in madness and evil. And we would be mad to not listen to your feedback! We have implemented a few changes and bug fixes that will improve the demo experience. If you have any feedback that is not listed here, please let us know in the Steam Discussions tab or in the Midwest Games Discord.

Patch Notes

[h2]Changes[/h2]
  • Nerf for Blood Rain spell damage output
  • Improvements for M/KB controls
    • Changed "Attack" to Left Mouse
    • Changed "Fire" to Right Mouse
    • Changed "Wraith Shot" to Middle/Side Mouse
    • Changed "Pause/Unpause" to ESC
    • Changed "Cancel" to Tab/Backspace
    • Arrow keys are now hard bound to navigation controls in addition to WASD (WASD can be rebound, Arrow keys cannot due to a limitation of the engine)
    • Added a visible cursor to assist in aiming using the Mouse

[h2]Bug Fixes[/h2]
  • Fixed issue where the UI was displaying generic control prompts instead of Xbox/PS4 specific
  • Fixed issue where firing the gun then rapidly changing screens can disable gun use
  • Fixed issue where dying before picking up the Spanish Fort key causes the key to disappear
  • Fixed unintended inputs for confirming purchases in a shop
  • Fixed issue where the player can move during the class selection screen, resulting in re-triggering the cutscene and all kinds of funky issues

We are grateful for all the support that we have received on the demo! Reminder, the demo is really just a small dungeon in the greater world. There is so much more freedom to roam in the overworld coming later this year. Stay safe out there. Avoid the madness.

Try Lovecraftian Wild West soulslike Tombwater early, as new demo launches

We may never get Bloodborne on PC, but we did get the excellent fan demake Yarntown, created by solo developer Max Mraz of Moth Atlas. Since then, Mraz has adapted and expanded that core concept to create Tombwater, a new, original soulslike that infuses Yharnam-style eldritch horror into a Wild West setting. If you're sad that Rockstar never gave Red Dead Redemption 2 its own version of Undead Nightmare, this exciting new Lovecraft-tinged action RPG might be the perfect salve, and you can try it for free on Steam right now.
