Headup have announced the launch of Colt Canyon during the Guerrilla Collective showcase.
As stated in our prior coverage, the game is a twin-stick shooter with roguelike elements such as permadeath. You are tasked with saving your partner who has been kidnapped by bandits, though you may also end up saving others.
Others you aid and rescue will offer upgrades, fight along-side you, or unlock different starting load-outs and abilities. The game also supports local two player co-op.
You can find the launch trailer below.
You can find the full rundown (via Steam) below.
Take your revolver and rescue your partner in this atmospheric and punchy roguelike game.
Colt Canyon is a 2D pixel art shooter where you control a cowboy, or one of the many other unlockable characters, whose mission is to save his kidnapped partner from the ruthless bandits. Take your gun and TNT and shoot your way through a hostile canyon full of hidden treasures, weapons, obstacles and all kinds of bloodthirsty scum.
Maybe you can save more people than just your partner. But watch out. Once you got your partner your job is not done. You’ll also have to get back home…
