The Legacy is a Year Old!

1yearanniversary

It’s been an unbelievable adventure since Rogue Legacy launched exactly one year before today.  To commemorate the event, we wanted to leave individual messages to our fans:

Kenny’s Post:

I just wanted to take the time to thank everyone for their support.  Not just letting us know you like our game, but being so patient with us and tolerating our growing pains as we fumbled through the first year.  We made our fair share of mistakes, but the unconditional love will ensure we do even better the next time (and there will be a next time!).

The experience has been entirely humbling, starting as a small team of nobodies to having fans from all around the world.  And the most exciting thing is that we’re not even done yet!  The PlayStation 3/4 and Vita versions are just around the corner, which we’ll be giving a firm release date to in the next two weeks.  It’s been in development for a while, but we’ve been working hard to ensure it is as genuine an experience as possible.  It’s closer than you think.

We can’t wait to see what happens for the next year, and we hope you’ll be there with us!

Teddy’s Post:

Hey everybody!

Man.  It feels like forever since we’ve released Rogue Legacy, but a lot has happened!

  1. We released Rogue Legacy.
  2. We announced the 1 year anniversary of Rogue Legacy.
  3. That’s it.

Patch Notes v.1.2.0b

Rogue Legacy v1.2.0b
Major Changes:
– Fixed critical bug where, in certain circumstances the profile selector would choose the wrong profile slot.
General Fixes:
– Fixed bug where player would be invisible when entering certain challenge rooms with stereo-blindness.

NOTE:  This is a very small patch update that addresses a critical save bug.  Because of its size, we are providing a link to a patch updater instead of a full installer, however v1.2.0a must be installed first.

Although the bug is quite rare (we have yet to have anyone report it), it causes problems with save data, so it is recommended to update to this version as soon as possible.  We apologize for all the trouble.
