Rogue Legacy 2 (tuxdb.com)

▶

Its been quite a ride with the release of the Fabled Heroes update alongside the Nintendo Switch version. And yet, despite how much we packed into it, it has undoubtedly been our smoothest update so far. Thats not to say the waves have been completely calm, as a few bugs were lurking beneath the waters. Fortunately weve not only fixed all the bugs reported in the last week, but the Mac and Linux versions are ready for prime time! We juuuust missed the launch window for these versions, but at least fans didnt have to wait long. And finally, we want to cap things off with a very big thank you to everyone that has supported us so far through the v1.0 launch to our latest major update! IMPORTANT NOTE: We are aware some Steam Deck users are experiencing intermittent crashes. Regrettably we have not been able to isolate the cause, but we are hoping the native Linux build will help stabilize things. Please note that until the native Linux version is re-verified on the Steam Deck (fingers crossed because weve tested it), only the Proton version will be available to Steam Deck owners. To get around this for now, in the games properties on Steam, navigate to Compatibility, enable the Force the use of a specific Steam Play Compatibility tool checkmark, and choose Steam Linux Runtime from the drop down. IMPORTANT NOTE #2: This patch will only be available on PC for the first few days to ensure stability. Once were certain everything is good, we will push the patch to the console platforms.

BUG FIXES

Fixed bug where damage popups were appearing behind the Interact prompt when attacking Lady Quinn.
Fixed bug where resetting the Skill Tree via House Rules would lock the Knight Class and miscellaneous starting Equipment/Runes.
Fixed bug where Relic rooms would sometimes spawn Nerdy Glasses but then switch to a different Relic when you left and re-entered the room.
Fixed bug where the Cellar Door Games splash sound effect was much quieter than intended if the in-game volume settings were low.
Fixed bug where a black box would appear next to the player death portrait when playing on OpenGL/Metal.
Fixed bug where Charon's boat was clipping into the terrain in the Garden scene.

Fixed bug where certain statues would Z-fight in the Memory Heirloom room.
Fixed bug where the over-Burden gold bonus was not applying correctly after NG+25.
Fixed bug where the over-Burden gold bonus was not applying correctly if the Burden requirements had been changed in House Rules.
Fixed bug where entering a biome with a gold bonus (Pishon, Mundi, Tower) for the first time would sometimes not apply the gold bonus.
Fixed bug where Crow Storm did not target Blightborn Purson.
Fixed bug where the pumpkin/gift prop on top of the Drift House would sometimes become invincible.
Fixed bug where the character models would sometimes appear incorrectly sized in menu screens.
Fixed bug where local teleporters and secret doors were sometimes rendered incorrectly in the Kerguelen Plateau.
Increased the zoom speed on the death recap map screen when using a mouse wheel.
Fixed bug where dashing while firing Lucent Beam would re-enable gravity once the dash was completed.
Rewrote how Silk Slippers is applied to fix some edge cases where it was not triggering as intended (hitting enemies via Lute note explosion would not award a stack).
Fixed bug in Death Mark logic to address issues where player would get one less mark with each level of the Burden.
Fixed bug where dying to the Death Mark would sometimes not display the Black root death text.
Fixed bug where the Death Mark could go into negative values at the Docks.
Fixed bug where entering the Castle after losing some Death Marks in the Docks would not reset the Death Mark counter.
Fixed bug where getting the Transmogrificator Relic as a Pacifist was not properly switching out the player's weapon.
Fixed bug where the crit damage for Burn and Poison Status Effects were not taking Relic damage mods into account.
Fixed bug where Poison Status Effect crit damage was dealing too much.
Fixed bug where the Lute's explosion was not calculating its bonus damage correctly in certain scenarios.
Fixed bug where Shotgun would sometimes not automatically fire the second shot when playing the game at a really low fps.
Fixed bug where Shotgun would sometimes instantly reload when playing the game at a really low fps.
Fixed null ref bug that would sometimes occur when switching Challenges with the Shotgun.
Fixed bug where dying when the rumble SFX that plays from the flying hands in the Cave biome would cause the SFX to keep playing.
Fixed bug where Umbrella was triggering some old code if active in the air long enough, causing it to shoot projectiles.
Fixed bug where Triangulator was not bouncing off trick walls correctly.
Reduced chance of Triangulator bouncing off a door instead of breaking through it.

Fixed bug where the air attack for the Umbrella was applying Spore Burst while standing on an Ivy Platform.
Fixed bug where the abandoned Docks had Halloween items in it if you entered with the Festive Trait active.
Fixed bug where you could sometimes hear the player's footsteps SFX loop continuously when using a local teleporter.
Fixed bug where changing the game's quality settings would override the vsync values until the game was relaunched.
Fixed some text overrun in Japanese language.
Fixed bug where a cloud in the Sun Tower is covering the exit pipe of a local teleporter, causing the player to teleport back to their original location after using it.
Fixed bug where players could still perform abilities in a small time window during a scene transition. This was a problem because some abilities would re-enable player gravity after the ability was completed (like the Umbrella attack), causing gravity to kick in too soon and resulting in the player falling through the ground during a transition.
Entering the Lineage scene while in the upper area now shows the sky of the upper area in the windows.

Rogue Legacy is back! But now it's got a 2 on the end of it!

Rogue Legacy 2 is a genealogical rogue-LITE. That means it has all the trappings of a typical rogue-like (randomized runs, changing characters, and more), but with persistent upgrades, and persistent dead heirs. In this game, your legacy defines you. Spend your parents’ inheritance and grow the family manor to give your children a better fighting chance. Each child is unique, with their own traits and abilities. Your daughter could be a Ranger. She could also be vegan. It’s a new experience every time. Rogue Legacy 2 also lets you play how you want to. Go hard and fast, and dive deeper into the depths of a randomly-generated world. Or take it slow and steady and build your character up until you’re ready for greater challenges.

Every Adventure is Unique

New monsters, new traps, and new layouts await you every time you enter the Kingdom. This is a world where improvisation, and not memorization is the key to success.

Wildly New Classes

No two classes play the same. Hide atop Ivy Canopies as the Ranger, and rain poisoned arrows down onto your foes. Take to the skies as a Dragon Lancer and fly across the skies striking foes at massive speeds. Or sing and dance through your enemies, as the joyous bard, leaving only a trail of bodies behind you. Rogue Legacy 2 supports 15 new classes, with 15 distinct styles of play.

Brand New Style

We’re taking a whole new artistic approach to Rogue Legacy 2. The sequel features 2.5D stylings, with 3D characters against hand-drawn backdrops. The art uses heavy shading and all animations are done using stepping techniques to keep the familiar RL look and feel.

Revamped Biome Generation

We went all-out with biome generation to make each area in RL2 feel completely new. Each biome adopts different “build strategies” to create completely unique yet-still-randomly-generated regions.

True Metroidvania

To really push the metroidvania flair, RL2 introduces heirlooms: special items that permanently give your heroes new abilities that fully reveal the world’s secrets. These are not basic lock-in-key abilities, but powers that fundamentally change how you play. And heirlooms are not simply handed to you. You must prove your worth, provided you can find them.

Traits 2.0

Though fun the first time, the traits in RL1 often wore their welcome later in the game. We’ve now added gold modifiers to entice players to take on new challenges. The more debilitating the trait is (in-game), the bigger the reward. This makes choosing your heirs a meaningful decision every time.

Relics and Resolve

One of the most exciting new features to Rogue Legacy 2 is the ability to pick up Relics, which are unique items that change how your run is played. Gain stat modifiers, complete special challenges, and even gain brand new abilities as you traverse the kingdom. But be careful, the more Relics you obtain the more your resolve is shaken, and all Relics are lost if your hero perishes.

Improved Accessibility

We’ve taken accessibility to the next level with the introduction of House Rules. Toggle contact damage, tweak global damage and health, and even give yourself flight for difficult platform sections. You have complete control over how you want to play the game. We’ve also introduced new mechanics such as Off-shore Banking to give struggling players more ways to succeed.

A Rich Narrative

Not only is the lore to the world of Rogue Legacy greatly expanded in the sequel, but it runs deep. New lore awaits you all the multiple NG’s in. Beating the game once is only the beginning. Learn about the inevitable collapse of a once thriving kingdom, and discover the dark secrets of the ones responsible. And connect and build relationships with the characters you meet along the way.

New Game+ for Days

Your journey has only begun after beating the final boss in RL2. There is a ton more to explore and discover on multiple playthroughs. You must choose how the game gets harder, from unique biome hazards, to special boss fights. The experience keeps changing for near infinite replayability.

More of Everything

Of course we’re also adding more of everything people loved from the original Rogue Legacy. More traits, more spells, more classes, more biomes, more enemies, more equipment, more rooms, more story. More secrets... Just more everything.

Clownanthropy.

Holy smokes! Punching clowns!

AND THERE'S A WHOLE LOT MORE. This only scratches the surface of what Rogue Legacy 2 has to offer. Scar Challenges, Fairy Rooms, the Curio Shoppe, the list goes on, but reading is for nerds. Go out and discover the world of Rogue Legacy 2 for yourself!
