Indie developer Rogue Rocket Games have announced that their highly acclaimed Wild West themed action-puzzler Gunpowder will be available on Steam for Windows PC, Mac OS X, and Linux on July 8th. It got a whole lot of support on Steam Greenlight, and it didn't take more than a week for Valve to give it the go-ahead. The Steam version will also add support for Steam Achievements, Leaderboards, Cloud Saves and Trading Cards.
Richard Sun, co-founder of Rogue Rocket Games:
“We never imagined the enormous amount of support we received for Gunpowder’s Steam release. Both Nick and I are so grateful to the gaming community for helping our game get approved in just one week. It’s amazing; we’re so pumped to bring Gunpowder to a whole new audience and are thrilled with how well the mechanics work regardless of platform!”
Official description:
Gunpowder is a one-of-a-kind physics-based puzzle game set in a wacky rendition of the Wild West, in which players go head-to-head against the greedy wolf, Boss Grimshaw. Players take on the role of Incendio, a friendly fox inspired by the noble deeds of Robin Hood, to reclaim stolen riches for the people, using a series of carefully choreographed explosions ignited by gunpowder lines. Barrels and numerous environmental objects – flaming wagons, Gatling guns, chandeliers, cannons, mine carts and more - aid or hamper the effort! Gunpowder can be played many times over, as players seek to find the fastest and best way to solve each puzzle.
Gunpowder will be available for purchase on Steam for $9.99, with a special pre-order and first-week 15% discount price offered (lowered to $8.49) until July 15, 2015. You can also pre-order Gunpowder here. And checkout the Steam launch trailer, too.
