Only Lead Can Stop Them has now been available for a month, and we thought it’s a perfect time to share some of the highlights since its release.
The game was recently recognized as one of the Top 100 in IndieDB’s Indie of the Year Awards, a testament to the strong reception from the indie gaming community. On Steam, the feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, with a 90% positive review score from players.
Our launch trailer has also made waves, surpassing 35,000 views - a number that exceeded our expectations. Many comments have highlighted and praised the influence of classic shooters - especially Wolfenstein 3D and the modern boomer shooter Cultic.
We’re grateful to everyone who has supported the game so far - whether by playing, sharing feedback, or helping spread the word.
What’s Next?
Our goal is to keep improving Only Lead Can Stop Them and add new features based on community feedback. Here are some of the updates we’re working on right now:
- Improved Sound Effects – We’ve received a lot of feedback about the audio design in Only Lead Can Stop Them, and we’re making it a top priority to improve the sound effects for weapons, starting with the shotgun. Our goal is to make weapon sounds feel even more punchy and immersive, enhancing the overall experience during combat. Whether you’re blasting enemies at close range or unleashing chaos with the flamethrower, these improvements are all about making the action feel even more intense and memorable.
- Ultra-Wide and Aspect Ratio Support – Full compatibility with a range of screen sizes.
- Enhanced Enemy Behavior – Improving pathfinding and combat capabilities of enemies.
- Level Editor Updates – More building options, better performance, and improved import/export features for custom levels.
The first month of Only Lead Can Stop Them has been a strong start, and we’re excited to keep building on that momentum. Your feedback and support have been instrumental in shaping the game, and we look forward to sharing more updates soon.
Stay tuned, and as always, Only Lead Can Stop Them!
