This update marks a bit of a milestone: Just a week ago, Streets of Rogue celebrated its 4th birthday on Steam! That's an entire high school/college career! Since then, we've gone from version 20 all the way to version 94! In sequel news... I've recently added the ability for the player to place walls, floors and objects into the environment. This will likely be used to allow people to create their own home base(s), much like in other open world games such as Fallout 4, Valheim, Terraria, etc. I've also added the ability for the engine to do diagonal/slanted walls. This was the absolute biggest tile-mapping nightmare you could ever imagine and took wayyyy longer than I anticipated, but hopefully this will allow me to create some more interesting looking structures and organic looking outdoor areas. Since the game's development so far has mostly consisted of laying groundwork and solving the tough technical bits, the gameplay itself still has a long ways to go before it reaches anything close to a playable state. But as always, I'm happy to hear your thoughts/suggestions/hopes/dreams during this period where the game is still very malleable!
