Like a samurai poised patiently for an opening in their opponent’s defences, Shogun Showdown understands that focus and finesse are the means to delivering an impactful blow. This rare roguelike distils the genre down to its purest components, all in favour of amplifying its dizzying combat that plays gracefully with the concepts of positioning and patience. Highly refined, stylish and complex, Shogun Showdown is a delight. Read more

- New update + price increase! - 22 January 2024
Hello everyone, As part of the Pirates vs Ninjas Fest, we have a new update available for you now, which we are detailing just below. We would also like to let you know that we will update Shogun Showdown's pricing in a week, moving from $9.99 / €9.99 to $14.99 / €14.99. The reason we are doing this is that we believe the game's current content and replayability justify such a price. Considering we will also add more content for the 1.0 launch and continue supporting the game afterward to make it the most complete game possible. That's why we have applied a 30% discount to the game, so this is your last chance to grab it at this price for a while. We hope you will understand our decision, which we truly believe is fair. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2084000/Shogun_Showdown/ The Corruption Update - Full Patch Notes New Content Corrupted Bosses may appear from Day 4 (new ascension le…

Hey there! Pushing some fixes live since they were potentially softlocking the game : Fixing an issue with the gamepad in the shop ending up in stucking the selector and softlocking the game unless played with mouse-keyboard. This was mostly linked to sacrifying a tile in the shop Fixed an issue with the Jujitsuka when yeeting throwing the Shogun with 1hp on an ennemy, that ended up in softlocking the game

- Gamepad Update is out now! - 18 August 2023
Hello everyone! I'm glad to announce that the first goal of our roadmap is there! GAMEPAD UPDATE IS OUT NOW! This does mean that you can play the game with your favorite controller! As some of you might have seen already, we've been able to get the "Steamdeck Verified" check so that's also great news for Steamdeck people! Some of you might not be aware though, there is a little bad news. We wanted to get the key/button binding in this update too, however we had some difficulties having it ready and tested yet. We'd rather publish the gamepad update without it since a lot of people were waiting for it. Key and buttons remapping is still in the pipe and is definitely happening, you just have to be a bit more patient, and we'll give you more news as we'll have some to share! For now you'd have to use the default layout, don't hesitate to play the tutorial again to get familiar with it! Alo…

- Small Update - 0.5.7 (06/07/2023) - 6 July 2023
Hello everyone! We've got some more fixes coming today! That's not a lot, but we felt that you wanted to have a way to lock the Scroll wheel. It's now possible! Enjoy! Patchnote 0.5.7 : Fixed a bug with the interaction between the 'Damaging Move' and the 'Back Stabber' skills. New option in "Controls -> Scroll Wheel" to disable the scroll wheel input. Fixed some descriptions and translations
- Shogun Showdown's Cloud update - 3 July 2023
Hello everyone! We had issues with the Steam Cloud. Long story short, it only worked between the same OS, and, only the metaprogression was saved. But if you stopped mid-run to continue on another computer, you'd have to start your run over again From now on, you should be able to keep your save and ongoing run saved to the cloud, no matter which OS you use! The main use-case of this would be with the Steamdeck, being able to save and quit on PC then continue your run on Steamdeck. Talking about Steamdeck, someone in the team made an unofficial gamepad layout, so you've got a layout to play with before the official gamepad support comes. Have a fantastic week!
- Small Update - 0.5.6 (30/06/2023) - 30 June 2023
Hey there! Here's the changelog for the first small update of Shogun Showdown! We adressed some bugs we/you found A lot of you folks requested to be able to unassign/lock the mouse wheel. It requires a bit of translation, so it's not in this first small update, but this will come! Later (but it'll be in a major update), our plan is to let you rebind your keys (and buttons when there will be gamepad support) as you want! Thank you so much for your kind messages since EA launch, and here's the changelog! Bug Fixes Fixed a soft-lock situation when entering a reward room with only maxed-out tiles. Fixed a soft-lock situation in the Twin boss fight when one twin is killed by being pushed on a trap. Fixed a soft-lock situation when both player and Shogun die in the same turn. Fixed a major bug involving incompatible alpha-version save files (from an old itch.io alpha version) causing startup…
