ANNOUNCING THE CONCURRENT PLAYER CHALLENGE!

UNLOCK REWARDS INCLUDING NEW MUSIC, OUTLAW SKINS & EVEN A NEW OUTLAW

To celebrate the FREE WEEK (Launching Dec 14th on Steam), we wanted to do something exciting for all players, new and old alike and are introducing “Concurrent User Challenge!”.

This challenge sets a series of milestones, in which the community can unlock brand new content for Secret Ponchos! To unlock rewards all you have to do is play the game - the more users the community can get playing at once, the more rewards become available. 

Help us, get the Secret Ponchos population jump started, by getting everyone you know to play, and spreading word of the Free Week!

Let’s unlock that new Outlaw! 

Mouse Menu Functionality, Graphic Options, Stability Fixes & More!

We’ve been doing a ton of preparation for the Free Week, which launches soon! The free week will be an exciting opportunity to have new players try the game, and to build exposure and the player base. Alongside with the free week, we’ll be promoting a major discount, and also rolling out our concurrent user challenge! In this challenge we will have rewards and in game content for players, based on hitting milestones goals of concurrent users. 

Update 1.004 includes a variety of changes including:

Mouse in Menus & Graphics Options

• Base functionality added for Mouse navigation for all Menus (some additional polish is being still being added). We want to submit early to collect info prior to the free week 
• Added Graphic options for performance control. Tiled Lighting (dx11 lighting) / SSAO/ Shadows. Players can individually toggle each element, to finetune performance on lower grade pcs.
