Samurai Standoff changes
This game has been a real passion project for us. Seeing players jump in, duel, and share feedback is a huge milestone, and it genuinely helps shape where the game goes next.
🗺️ What’s coming next? This playtest is just the beginning. We’re already working on several major features that will expand the experience:
🎴 Story‑driven mode — travel across a stylized map of feudal lands, choosing your next opponent. Not every stop is a duel; some will feature unique reflex‑based mini‑games and encounters.

🥷 Multiplayer is also expanding, with several modes in development: • Same‑screen standalone duels with controller support (coming soon in the demo!) • Party mode over the same network • Self‑hosted online 1v1 matches
This playtest is just the first step.
🔥 The standoff begins today. Will you strike first… or fall in silence? 🥷 Join our community on Discord or over on Instagram!
