Hello everyone!
In this update, we have added some occult scrolls and adjusted the effects of some spiritual blessings and scrolls. In addition, we have adjusted the method of obtaining a spiritual blessing in [Reincarnation - Longling Tomb - Entrance] (Players can consume a few soul essences to reroll available spiritual blessings). We are still working on tweaking [Reincarnation] difficulty, and we are grateful for your invaluable feedback.
Price Increase Notice:
It has been over a year since Gunfire Reborn's Early Access on Steam, and we humbly thank you all for your continuous support and love. We cannot achieve what we have accomplished without your dedicated feedback and suggestions.
We plan to release the 1.0 version in mid-November. With more content integrated into the game and increasing development costs, we have to tweak the price by a moderate increase in mid-October. We will publish another official price-increase announcement and v1.0 update preview when it's about time to do so.
Why price increase before the v1.0 launch?
Due to restrictions of Steam, we may not offer a "Launch Discount" if we raise the price at the v1.0 launch. Therefore, we have decided to adjust the price in advance so that we can provide a Launch Discount for those who haven't purchased the game.
Thank you all for your love and support!
*If you encounter issues such as game crashes, failure to start, etc., and you cannot use the feedback function, please send your Steam name with a detailed description of the issue or screenshots to our email ([email protected]). We will check and fix the issue as soon as possible.*
