Colt Canyon Developer AMA on June 20th!




Howdy fellow gunslingers!

You have never heard of Colt Canyon? Or Retrific? Hey - no problem at all! Let's change that tho! Colt Canyon is a 2D pixel art cowboy shooter with roguelike elements in which you control a cowboy, or one of the many other unlockable characters, whose mission is to save their kidnapped partner from the ruthless bandits by fighting your way through a long canyon with all kinds of dangers and scum.

I (Retrific) am a one-man game studio and working on this game for more than 2 years now. If you want to learn more about the game or myself, join our "Ask Me Anything" during the Steam Game Festival “Summer Edition”!

The AMA is taking place on Saturday, 20th June 9pm – 11pm CEST/12pm – 2pm PST on the Colt Canyon Discord. Would be cool to see you all around. Really looking forward to chatting with you!

See you all in the stream. All the best and stay healthy!

Colt Canyon Developer Live Stream on June 16th!



Howdy fellow gunslingers!

I am absolutely thrilled to announce that Colt Canyon is part of the Steam Game Festival “Summer Edition” taking place June 16th – 22nd 2020! Yep, that's right, right when the game releases the festival starts!

What does this mean for you guys? Well first of all this means that the free demo will stay available for this period! You will have plenty of time in the canyon even without spending a penny.
But what this also means is that we will be streaming the game live on Tuesday, 16th June 9pm - 11pm CEST/12pm - 2pm PST here on the Steam page to guide you a bit deeper into the dusty and dangerous depth of the canyon.

So, if you're not too busy playing the game yourself you can join our live stream and ask questions in the chat or just watch us fail at our own game!

All the best and stay healthy!
