About this game

Bronco County is on the brink of war. A conspiracy to provoke a conflict between the western settlers and the Chepakwik threatens to destroy both sides. Only Kid, Doc, Moon and Rosy know the truth. But to save their homes, they’ll have to hunt down five legendary outlaws whose very names strike fear into the hearts of men.


Boot Hill Bounties continues the saga of Kid and his companions as they journey deeper into the darkest corners of the Wild West and come face to face with the evil Creed Little, Stampede Sally, Tuco Delgado, Scorpion Saint and Burning Crow.



While Boot Hill Bounties is the second game in a saga, it was designed for new players to comfortably jump in without having played the first game. Six years in development, Boot Hill Bounties is a 2D retro RPG set in the Wild West that supports single player or UP TO FOUR PLAYER LOCAL CO-OP.

Wild West Epic: Boot Hill Bounties is the second episode in a game series that fuses elements of spaghetti western film - gunslinging outlaws, brave lawmen, and the untamed wilderness - with classic RPG storyline and gameplay. 90s console RPGs like Final Fantasy, Earthbound and Chrono Trigger created lasting memories and impacted us as gamers. Now, Boot Hill Bounties brings back those experiences while revitalizing the genre with a Wild West spin and innovative new gameplay elements.

Retro Fresh: It's an experimental combination of old and new ideas intended to bring a new and unique experience to modern gamers and old-school fans alike. It's an epic Wild West adventure packed with excitement, intrigue, terror and the occasional dose of humor.

Active Combat: Typical turn-based combat is replaced with fast and frenetic real-time system where all players remain engaged in battle and no one is waiting for a turn!

4 Player Co-op: Play single player or up to four player local co-op. Friends can seamlessly drop-in and take control of a character! You simply assign each of the four characters to various input devices. So a single player can control all four characters, or you can play with friends and divide the four characters among your friends.

Music: Full soundtrack by Jake ‘virt’ Kaufman (“Shovel Knight”, “Shantae”, “DuckTales Remastered”)!

Encounters: No random battles! See them on the map before engaging! Defeated enemies remember you and flee.

Pixel Art: Charming, detailed sprites with hundreds of unique NPCs!

Wild West Setting: Sprawling towns and locales to explore, including forests, caves, deserts and a traveling circus!

250 Enemies: Fight outlaws and animals! Can you stop a barroom brawl? Can you defeat a gang of raccoons hoarding precious garbage?

Job Hats: 34 Different Job Hats - from the casual Stetson to the mysterious Careta - that teach nearly 200 battle abilities

Customize Weapons: Customize your weaponry with status inflicting effects! Create a gun that fires multiple times, or a lasso that sets enemies on fire!

20-30 Hours of RPG goodness packed with content. You will almost never fight the same battle twice.

Farming: Start your own farm to obtain livestock and grow crops which you can harvest for ingredients.

Newspaper: Read the newspaper to learn what’s going on in Bronco County, find jobs, learn new recipes and solve puzzles.

Steam Achievements: A whopping 52 Achievements! Can you collect every card in the deck?

Character Profiles: Hand-drawn profiles for 20 major characters, and 34 for each of the hats.

Side Quests: New side quests pop up each chapter that you can read about and track in the newspaper.

Eat Food: Visit restaurants and sample over 50 types of good to gain perks that benefit you in battle.

Stealth Attacks: Sneak up on enemies to gain a starting initiative in battle.

350 Characters: Get to know the many different residents of Bronco County. Each with their own unique sprite and name.

Questions Boxes: Solve riddles found in the newspaper to unlock secret combination lockboxes

Import Data: Import your save data from Boot Hill Heroes and start on your last levels with all your equipment and skills.

Camping: under the stars and chat with your party next to the fire or participate in several game systems.

Chuckwagon Chief: Compete in a cooking competition by cooking the best food for judges using a themed ingredient.

Treasure: Find and discover different treasures dropped by enemies rather than money, that you can then sell for money.

Battle Grades: Earn higher grades for better combat performance for more XP.

Nonlinear Chapters: Play the story chapters in any order as you decide which paths to follow first.

Cooking: Cook food at camp using various ingredients to give you party battle perks.

Battle Bonuses: Earn various battle bonus titles based on how you fight each battle, such as Perfect Dodge and Status Master

Tutorial Challenges: Complete tutorial challenges for extra items and goodies.

Wounds: Suffer from persistent frontier wounds like gunshots, fractured limbs and dysentery

Responses: Choose how Kid will respond in scenes from multiple choices.

Coupons: Find coupons in the newspaper and from tips around town to get deals on items in shops

Wild West Vernacular: Tons of Wild West dialect, terminology and colloquialisms

Doctoring: Treat wounds by learning various Wild West cures that you can apply at camp

Riddles: Solve dozens of riddles delivered by school kids.

Trappings: Augment your characters with trinkets that add more depth to the gameplay

Puzzle Bosses: Use your mind, rather than strength, to determine how to beat puzzle bosses.

Mysteries: Secrets, easter eggs and mysteries keep you thinking and speculating about hidden elements in the story

Battle Introductions: Unique character text and messages give every battle a unique reason for existing.

    Major Patch Fix

    12/20/2019 After a long hiatus I have fixed many, many new bugs and made countless tweaks to the game. Unfortunately, I did not maintain a record of all these but it was probably 300-400 items. Most of them were small but a few were big. Here are some big items: * It's now much easier to gain levels with hats at higher levels, so now you can see what vantage you unlock at level 10 * When the enemy Garbajosa uses Warning Shot it could make the cursor unavailable until the game is entirely rebooted. This is addressed. * Whenever damage is received, you can see the portion of damage that is drained highlighted in a different color and then shrink away. Also, enemy animations are timed better with attack animations and damage numbers. * Hats from BHH can be purchased earlier * Moon's Diadem hat is in a different place. It was given by Mistress Ivy but I couldn't even remember and figure this out. So it's in an easier place to find now at an earlier point. * An error in the fight with Scorpion Saint was fixed that could have made the battle unwinnable. * A sound glitch was fixed that was hopefully the cause of some crashes * Many vantages have been tweaked or even changed somewhat. If you found a vantage useless in the past, try it again and see if it's better. * Some vantages that were not working quite like intended that are now fixed or changed include: Guns Blazing, Confession * Status ailments now fade out as they wear off * You can walk behind more things, like church pews and gravestones

    Round up outlaws with your posse and your dog in Boot Hill Bounties

    Grab yer gun, pardner, and step into the role of Kid, a young farmhand who finds himself caught in a conspiracy between that dang Saints-Little Gang and the Chepakwik tribe. You'll have to rustle up a few companions to make things right and save your home of Bronco County, because there are quite a few varmints who want you dead. Well, what do you say? Are you in or are you too yeller?   If you aren't, you'll want to check out Boot Hill Bounties, which is what you'd get if you viewed a quirky JRPG like Earthbound through a Wild West filter. The sequel to 2014's underappreciated spaghetti western adventure Boot Hill Heroes, this idiosyncratic indie game is a colorful and zany ride that deserves a moment in the spotlight.  You may not have heard much about either of the Boot Hill games, but if you were one of the few who did complete a romp through the Old West in the first game, you can import your progress. Sometimes you'll fight a vulture that looks like an old-timey plague doctor. At other times rascally rabbits may try and tear you down. Boot Hill Bounties picks up where Boot Hill Heroes left off, with Bronco County about to head to war. As it turns out, the Chepakwik have been framed, and only your ragtag bunch of heroes know the truth. Your posse and their dog Rusty have to work together to save their homes from the war that threatens to destroy them all. Three of your companions can be controlled by friends via multiplayer or you can leave them to the AI. Boot Hill Bounties tasks you with rounding up five yellow-bellied cowards who call themselves "outlaws". If you want to be the rootinest, tootinest cowboy to ever have rustled up some cattle, you'll have to keep your wits about you as you work doggedly to unravel the conspiracy behind who framed the Chepakwik and why they'd want to do so in the first place.  While the western flavor is certainly welcome, Boot Hill Bounties' intricate combat syst...

    Patch Log April 22, 2018

    Many more minor bugs addressed and some vantages reconfigured and beefed up such as Rosy's Pith helmet Vantages. Taming and feeding animals should be much more useful. If you believe a particular vantage is not effective enough, let me know and I'll consider balancing. https://steamcommunity.com/app/727290/discussions/0/1499000547484363194/
