We are overjoyed to announce that 100,000 players have become wizards with guns. From everyone on our team, it's really a dream come true that so many people are enjoying our game.
To celebrate, our friends at Devolver Digital have released a new video about Wizard with a Gun's development. They joined us at our home base in Seattle, Washington, for a rootin' tootin' grand ol' time. Long before this game, we worked on all sorts of projects like Rust Belt, Gurgamoth, and even a battle royal in the Cyanide and Happiness universe. We've come a long way from those days.

More Wizards and More Guns
Even though we're proud of what we've built, we still have a lot more planned and a lot more work to do! There are a bunch of ways that we want to improve and add to Wizard with a Gun. If you played the single-player demo, you may have noticed that we've already implemented several changes based on your feedback. We want to continue listening and improving so this game can provide more depth and more spell-crafting adventures.
We're starting today with a fresh update. Alongside a bunch of fixes and new features, as a special thank you, we’re adding three Halloween costume sets to the game for a limited time!
If you were part of our early Beta, you’ll notice a couple of missing features. Keep an eye on the roadmap for future updates (and keep your secrets to yourself, please)!
Check out the full list of changes in this latest update below.
