Roguelite Third-Person Shooter Cowboy 3030 Fires Away in Q1 2024

0

Six shooters and nimble feet are a cowboy’s best friends against the wild robotic west

LOS ANGELES – Sept. 12, 2023 – A fight’s brewing in Hololasso County, so get that trigger finger ready for Cowboy 3030, the roguelite third-person shooter from Soy Boy Games, recruiting gunslingers on PC via Steam in Q1 2024, and later on consoles.

The nefarious Nebularos gang of robo-alien miscreants and tyrants have set foot in Hololasso County, enacting a reign of terror across the futuristic Wild West. Answer the local resistance’s call for aid to re-establish law and order in fast-paced shootouts inspired by bullet hells. Learn enemy patterns, avoid blue attacks, dodge through red attacks and acquire weapons and upgrades to become the ultimate techno-cowboy.

As privates like the Electro Lasso-swinging Calix and the Precision Rifle-brandishing Keri, bring henchman low and pilfer the Nebularos’ bases to scrounge up all the coins and blasters a plucky hero could need – scraps and all! Dust desperados one after another, and take on the gang’s leaders, infamous in their cruelties and casualty-counts, from the nefarious Blade Mistress to the Mechanical Bull and The Vulture.

Choose to save scurrying Hololasso locals as any above board cowboy would, and reap the benefits of good deeds. Receive extra health upgrades and discounts in local shops from the friendly Willa. However, for those choosing not to spare innocent civilians and become an outlaw themselves, the sly Silas stands by, ready to make risky deals of all sorts, like increasing base damage… at a cost.

Die and retry while unlocking a deadly arsenal of the likes of the AK4700, the M99, the Electric Bow, or trusty shotguns, rifles, and revolvers to bring into later runs in classic roguelite fashion. Choose from upgrades like the Big Bullet, perfect for a dramatic entry, or the Ghost Cowboy, letting those with quick feet slyly slip past certain types of attacks. Master the distinct playstyles of each character, each one providing a fresh experience, run after run.

Get up close and personal with Calix’s close-ranged revolver, make good use of the Electro Lasso ability to stay aggressive while hitting multiple targets, and stun incoming targets with a useful Flash Bang. Or, keep a distance from enemies and deal serious damage with Keri’s long-distance marksman rifle, shoot through the Electro Screen for more powerful shots, and aim for a strike with the Bowling Bomb, dealing even more damage at longer distances. Learn the ins and outs of each character’s loadout and distinct reloading style and get those bounties turned in!

Cowboy 3030 is our take on a third-person shooter that focuses less on taking cover from a screen covered in bullets, and more on strategic movement and getting the hang of enemy attack patterns,” said Soy Boy Games founder George Chiu. “We’re looking forward to seeing players strap on their cowboy boots and step into our futuristic western adventure.”

Cowboy 3030 is scheduled for Early Access release on PC via Steam in Q1 2024, and will release on consoles later.

For more information, visit Soy Boy Games’ official website and follow the studio on Twitter and YouTube. Wishlist Cowboy 3030 now on Steam.

The Press Pause fundraiser centres around the idea of pressing pause on life by pressing play in-game and will help Safe In Our World continue its valuable work in raising awareness, reducing stigma, and providing resources on mental health within the games industry. 

The fundraiser is now entering its second year and hopes to beat last year’s milestone of £10,000 in funds raised. The charity is inviting creators to raise money via challenges, streams, raffles, and more, with sponsor Elgato on hand to provide rewards for the first 20 fundraisers to reach £500 and promising to match whatever funds are raised for the charity up to the value of £10,000!

So, please consider joining us to raise some money and awareness on the topic and even get some goodies to upgrade your stream while doing it.”

If that wasn’t exciting enough, Safe In Our World is also offering its own rewards for fundraisers who hit significant goals. Those who raise up to £1,000 in funds will receive a custom-made Press Pause Game Boy, and those who reach £2,000 will receive a custom-made Press Pause Game Boy, a rechargeable USB-C Game Boy battery, and some small design customisation options.

“At Safe In Our World, we embrace using games to escape when we need to, as they provide a healthy outlet for processing difficult emotions, even if it’s on a subconscious level,” explained Rosie Taylor, Content & Community Manager at Safe In Our World. “This is why we’re encouraging streamers and creators to get involved and help us promote the benefits of gaming for mental wellbeing while raising money for and awareness of the value of mental health support for our community.”

As an alternative to fundraising, individuals and organisations who would prefer to make a direct donation can do so via Tiltify. There’s even a reward for corporate donations of £3,000 or more in the form of a custom-made Game Boy that can feature completely bespoke imagery/branding and would make a fine addition to any office or HQ.
