Weird Westpatch 1.02, the Snake-In-My_Boot update, is live now, and brings new ways to stealthily bean cowboys around the head to the supernatural cowboy RPG. Though the combat changes seem the most significant, the update also introduces inventory UI improvements and new travel encounters.

The new combat features include the ability to lethally take enemies down from stealth with melee weapons. Previously it was only possible to non-lethally attack enemies stealthily, but the change is designed to make players feel more like an assassin.
The update also adds two new travel encounters, Howling Hatch and Serpent’s Mouth, whic the game can serve up while you’re moving across the world map. WolfEye plan to keep adding more of these in future updates to help bulk out the variety the game has to offer.
