Hello everyone!
The time has come for the big, big, big updateeeeee — this is the very massive update!
This will be the last update, next will be new games and some minor fixes for Rise Of Gun
Rise Of Gun v6: Story Mode
You've been waiting for this for a long time, and here it is!
In this big update, I’ve also included a bunch of smaller ones, so it took a bit more time to complete.
I hope you didn’t get too bored while waiting and that this pleasantly surprises you. As mentioned earlier — the price of the game will increase.
But, I decided to do it in the summer, and now it would be better to make a 35% discount, so hurry up and it will be today
I’ve worked really hard to make it fun and exciting.
According to my calculations, gameplay time will increase by more than 10 hours!
You’ll find story mode, quests, dialogues, new mechanics, sound and visual improvements.
I’ll be very grateful for reviews on Steam — they really motivate me. My goal is 1000 reviews. Thank you for your support throughout development. Let’s move on to the update:
Story Mode
- Added a large number of story quests that will not only help you understand the background, but also reveal what’s happening in the town. Be in the thick of the action — your actions will influence the transformation of the survivor settlement. Help the residents not just with weapons but also with their living conditions — after all, they’ve all grown to love you.
- New characters (Secretary Elli, Warehouse Chief Tom, Farmer Hank, Defense Leader Mr. Pawns, Homeless Chester, City Mayor Governor, and many others)
- Added dialogue system — now you can talk to residents and learn lots of interesting things about what happened before the apocalypse and how it began. Short stories from the lives of the townsfolk will give you vivid impressions and reveal the picture of this beautiful apocalyptic world.
- Added an interactive map of the area — it will help you learn much more about what lies beyond the city limits, which you can't reach yourself. Adventurer Carl will help you with this — you can send him on expeditions to various locations. When he returns, you’ll receive a reward and a piece of the story from what Carl saw there. Discover more about this world.
New Workers
- Added a new worker — Ammo Maker. Now you can automatically produce ammo. The worker can place the ammo either on the shelf or on the ammo crafting table. Also, if the workday ends during crafting, he’ll continue the next day.
- Added a Worker for crafting parts. Now in the parts crafting menu, you can choose automatic production. After crafting, the parts will immediately be transferred to the warehouse. If the shift ends, the crafting machine will continue working.
- Added a new worker for parts recycling. He gives you the ability to recycle parts directly from the warehouse — this saves a lot of time.
New Vendors
- Added a vendor of Experience Books. He appears only during rain in a random location.
- Added a new vendor, Mr. Daryl. He will buy your weapons. Works only at night. Pays in scrap and money.
- Added a new vendor, Tom. He sells tools. Works 24/7 with no breaks.
Bicycle
- Added a new type of transport — bicycle. You can find it on the map and repair it. After fixing it, you’ll be able to move faster around the map and also transport boxes of food, ammo, weapons, water bottles. It greatly simplifies completing quests and managing the store.
Additional Mechanics
- Added 18 new parts.
- Added a new shift system for workers — now you can choose the days of the week your worker will work.

Final Words
Thanks to everyone who read this far!
I hope you enjoy the new changes — I really did my best.
Hopefully I didn’t forget anything. This will be the last major update. After this, development of the game will slow down, and I’ll begin working on new games.
It’s been almost 2 years of developing Rise of Gun, and I’m glad you were with me and helped shape the game.
I believe it turned out great.
I’d love to read your reviews on Steam — it will help promote the game and bring in new players!
