Big Early Access Update
2016-04-17Wrapping up, here is a look at the new single/multi-player mode. Coming end of April*, see gifs below! You start with the sniper rifle. But now, the runner will find new guns, ammo & train fuel in the boxes. When he makes it back, he'll hand everything over to you. We killed the shop. No more coins. Now, you gather experience based on your shooting skills. With enough experience, you can pick a boost between rounds. And stack them! Think Nuclear Throne's rogue-like approach meets first person shooter. Every game plays out with a different set of weapons, ammo & boosts and it is so much fun. This is the main mode going forward. All weapons, new boosts and the new map 3 are in there, as well as 2-player online coop, where one plays the runner.

Gatling/Minigun Preview (another fav). Also map 3: Handover Screen, nice haul from the first run: My fav tower in map 3, looking down the mountain: And finally, map 2, multiplayer, playing as runner: Fun fact: As of today, we have 488 commits on this update. We know you would love to get stuff into your hands earlier, but a completely new game mode & multiplayer means tearing everything apart. We are two devs working full time on Dead TrailZ and are committed to make it a shiny example of what Early Access can do for a game. Thanks for your support and feedback that brought us here. If you like this please share. * what can go wrong?!
