Overview
- The co-op extraction shooter, which entered Steam Early Access on Friday, sold about 250,000 copies within 48 hours with an Overwhelmingly Positive user score near 97%.
- Player interest pushed the game up Steam's best-seller charts and drove an all-time concurrent peak reported at more than 34,000 players.
- Evil Raptor said its network provider's anti-DDoS system triggered during the spike, blocking public matchmaking and in-game promo code claims, though solo play and friend invites still work.
- In response, the team issued a hotfix that improved save backups, increased XP for the bow and certain spells, raised the Cryptic Saloon boss health, and fixed several bugs.
- The developer plans roughly a year of Early Access with more modes, enemies, weapons, and progression, and it intends to raise the price at version 1.0 as community feedback grows, including calls for a dedicated yeehaw emote.
