Rogue-Like Update 5/13/17
I just wanted to do a quick follow-up, there was a lot of support in the last post, and I really appreciate that guys. This is a labor of love, but I also want to make sure that you feel your support has been valued, and I couldn't manage it without you. Several people expressed that they were concerned that if they hadn't heard from me in a while, that something terrible might have happened with the project, and I know there are other projects where people just sort of wander off. So I want to make this promise to you guys:
I'm not going to go anywhere.
I plan to keep working on this project for the foreseeable future, keep adding new things for the characters to do, keep adding new girls to interact with, keep expanding this game to be the best game it can be. If that ever does change, if I ever do get some can't-pass opportunity, or I get bored and decide to move on to something else, then I promise to announce that to you guys publicly, and to continue working on this project anyway for at least a few months after, trying to tie up loose ends as best as I can and make the game as complete as possible. I'll give you guys plenty of time to pull up stakes if there's nothing more to look forward to, but I don't expect anything like that any time soon.
The only reasons I would ever cut shorter than that is if I die (hopefully not), or am otherwise completely unable to get near a computer to let you know what's up (also hopefully not). But I may not post much for a few weeks here and there, just because sometimes what I'm working on is boring technical stuff and I don't really have anything to talk about and kind of suck at social engagement. ;)

Wanted to chime in with everyone else and tell you we love your work! Looking forward to the next update. I almost have kitty's stats maxed and am excited to see what we can do with 'em. ^_^ I can't wait to see how this game evolves and hope we can get all sorts of characters in like an exchange program with the Avengers or the Inhumans to get characters such as Ms. Marvel (Kamala Khan) or dimension hoppers such as Spider Gwen :3
Keep up the hard work, you're doing one amazing job! I love the art style and over all tone you have going on with the game. Looking forward to the next update!
Thanks!
If u finished rogue update. Could u plz give me the link . Sorry for annoying u :)
The latest version can be found here: <a href="https://www.patreon.com/posts/rogue-like-0-go-8306443">https://www.patreon.com/posts/rogue-like-0-go-8306443</a> You can always find the latest version by sorting by "release."
Ur best designer i have ever seen . I can't wait anymore
Date release??? Plz I don't want beta roguuuueeeeee
I might take the "beta" label off the title, because at this point it's a bit misleading. This project is sort of a "continuous development" project, a bit like an MMO. If you haven't actually played it, go ahead and pick up the latest version, there should be a lot of fun things to do in it. I hope to put out new versions with more content, more characters, etc. every couple months, so I don't expect it to be "finished" for a long time, but it should still be in a state that is fun to play.
I think it's important to at least post once a month because I always check when the last post was before funding. People will think the project is dead.
A fair point. One thing is I'm constantly replaying to posts like this, so if I make a new post and then answer a question in that post every 2-3 days I feel like I'm participating, but I guess people don't get alerts for those, so they might not notice. At the very least I could sum up some of the things I've been answering.
im glad to know this project isn't going to die anytime soon barring a huge tragedy (knock on wood). even if you have nothing to say, i still would like to vote for maybe a weekly update. Even if its a 5 word update saying "Hey guys i'm still alive." While that isn't something i am by any means demanding at all, it may help keep people from getting tired of waiting for an update they dont know will ever come. Just an idea. I love what you have so far and am really impressed with how well them game functions. Cheers to you mate. Good Work. Hope to see this game continue for a good long time. I know I'll be here for all of it.
Ok, I'll definitely give it a shot.
Don't hesitate to post boring technical stuff. A lot of us dig that sort of thing.
I sometimes post _interesting_ technical stuff, because I enjoy that too. But if I were to make a post yesterday saying that I copied and pasted the cost for Rogue's doggy-style sex sequence and then tweaked it where necessary to make it apply to the hotdogging sex scene, it tends to get a bit dull and repetitive. It is good work though, since I notice areas where I can make overall improvements, or sometimes catch minor glitches that I didn't noticed at the time I originally made the system.
Have you considered hiring someone to help with the coding of the game to take some pressure off of you?
I second this motion
