Howdy, partners! Publishing label No More Robots (Descenders, Hypnospace Outlaw, Let's Build a Zoo, loads of other bangers) are today revealing a doggone release date for the long-awaited Space Western shooter TombStar. Saddle up, because it's coming to Steam on July 20!


TombStar ain't the development team's first rodeo, as its led by Crossy Road creator Andy Sum. Inspired by classic bullet hell roguelikes including Enter the Gungeon and The Binding of Isaac, this Wild Wild shooter will seriously test your gunslinging skills.

A wide array of abilities, perks, purchases and weapons to DRAAAW from will aid you in the fight against the notorious Grimheart Gang. But you'll need to refrain from horsing around, as each world is guarded by one of the Gang's henchmen. Classic boss battle action, yeehaw!


Each run in TombStar is unique, as you aim to discover which perks, badges and weapons work best together, and spur on your playstyle. And with three different characters who each handle and play very differently, you're never roped into a single way to play.


So to round it all up: Fast-paced Space Western shooter, check. Hard-as-nails bullet hell gunslinging, check. Dozens of weapons, perks and abilities to experiment with, check. Us brimming with excitement to get this dang thing out? Absolutely check.


Tombstar will launch on Steam on July 20 -- you can find the press kit for the game here.
