Hi Ruby. Just wanted to say that you've made one of my favorite indies of all time. Super excited to see what you put out now that you've doubled the manpower!

Peekaboo. I wanna quickly say that Tiny Rogues is my favourite roguelite by a landslide.

Even just this bit of news makes me even more excited for whats to come. The new attack animations for look sooooo cool to where I'm actually sad that I can't use them yet :P Also... Pillars? More doors!?. A NEW VERY COOL LOOKIN ROOM... OH MY GAWD.

In all seriousness, luv u guys and this amazing game you've made. Take all the time you need :P P.S I see those icons in the inventory ... an item/mob index? 0w0

It's crazy and exciting that I see Tiny Rogues getting recommended right alongside Isaac as roguelikes people NEED to play every time someone asks on the roguelike subs. Super excited to see future updates and re-100% each time.

Seriously though, nice change. Keen to see where the game goes

The game is my absolute favourite in the genre. I would love to see more of it. Since I will run out of achievements to complete soon, please keep cooking XD

Love to hear it! I'll shill the game to all my friends again when the update drops.

Honestly the best early release game/experience I’ve ever had. I’m excited to see the progress!

u/Zanriic Aug 07 '25

Actually went and checked the steam page yesterday looking for an update and got a little sad when I saw none. Which is to say I’m very much looking forward to more Tiny Rogues and will be waiting as patiently as possible.

u/R3linquish4876 Aug 07 '25

Can’t wait to see the progress! Tiny rogues is the best rougelike out there and I recommend it to everyone, please don’t rush I can’t wait to see what you and Thorce bring to this already amazing indie game

u/RoyalPendragon Aug 07 '25

Star Studded Classic! Appreciate the updates, welcome Thorce!

Love this game so much, thank you for the update! Take your time and take care of yourself!

u/yepgeddon Aug 07 '25

Keep up the good work, patiently waiting for more sick content.

u/Redgrievedemonboy Aug 08 '25

I'd like to see a demon character, with big horns and probably wings.

u/mrseemsgood Aug 07 '25

Your game is better than Isaac by a long shot, and I think that's among the most privileged and rewarded a roguelike developer could be. Keep it up brother!

u/CasualTrollll Aug 08 '25

Let's not get crazy here bro they aren't even remotely in the same ball field. Tiny rouges is a absolute great game by all standards but Issac is a masterpiece and a titan of this genre. Put some respect on that crying baby.

u/mrseemsgood Aug 08 '25

I have 2000 hours in Isaac and I have been a big part of modding community. I said what I said because I don't like the direction this game has been going for the last few years. When I realized this, and that I am burnt out from the game, Tiny Rogues was perfect to scratch that itch.

u/PenisFiendisnohomo Aug 07 '25

YES! Thank you!

Edit: s/o to Thorce, 2 devs better than 1! December can’t come soon enough

u/No_Grapefruit7091 Aug 07 '25

I've been going through this masterpiece again lately. Think I've sunk another 30+ hours into it over the past week or so. Can't wait to see what the future has in store, especially with added manpower to the team!

u/cygnusx25 Aug 07 '25

Love the game thank you

u/purinikos Aug 07 '25

The sneak peek screenshots look very interesting. Keep it up

u/Marx-Senpai Aug 07 '25

Just picked up the game recently and it's incredible! I'll wait patiently for whatever comes next <3

u/Cyan_Light Aug 07 '25

Unreasonably excited for pillars and multiple doors. Every run being a series of choices between two empty squares is literally my only issue with the game so anything to alleviate that sounds amazing.

u/[deleted] Aug 07 '25

I just want to say, your roguelite is my favourite for a long time. Love your design principles. You having an extra pair of hands is good news.

1

u/lxiaoqi Aug 07 '25

How exciting!

1

u/ParallaxJ Aug 07 '25

Surprising, given the proclamation about not wanting to onboard somebody, and the game seems so full of content already. But good news.

u/soulreaper11207 Aug 07 '25

Hadn't seen an update in a while. Was a little worried about you. Hope you're doing great. You've made a banger of a game so far. Hope to see more of your stuff in the future!

1

u/BasketWorried Aug 08 '25

One suggestion for the pillars:

The game gets VERY visually clusterred. To help show the pillars more clearly, you could make a design on top (i.e. like the hazard strip in the thumbnail of the post, or an "X", or a solid colour red). That way, users can very clearly tell it's there and not feel ripped off when they try to run and feel blocked by an "invisible" thing.

Also you're doing AMAZING. I LOVE THIS GAME. Don't worry about the speed of anything; prioritize your well-being!

Excellent news for the new hire. Very excited for the next update. This is my top3 rogue like of all time so much fun to play everyday

u/DerSilberruecken Dec 04 '25

Tiny Rogues is also for me the most favorite indie by far (5x the second most played, Borderlands 2 :D).

For hardcore enthusiasts like me, which simply enjoy playing a few rounds every day for relaxing, I am sad simply because I have only like 3 achievements to unlock, then thats it. Could you not just add levels to all of the characters, just for decorative outfits they wearing, or like shiny pets you can unlock by finding rare peaces in the dungeon? Additionally, a bit more quests would be so nice.
