Back in 2015 there was a bunch of games I was interested in and did a short blog about. Of them the most interesting to me was Rogue Invader. It ticked the boxes in look/art style, gameplay and humour for me. I blogged again about it later that year as it had reached the last week of it's kickstarter. A year later after that I did another follow up(and added in some more games) but found that Rogue Invader had been cancelled.
So it was with great surprise last week that I saw it listed on Steam! As I was looking at the current Steam game festival, there it was being live streamed!! Rogue Invader on Steam. It's alive! The games website lists it as having an April 2021 release date..... I've wish-listed it on Steam.
The demo is live on there as well but (I hope) it's got a few revisions to go before the 'launch release'. I could nitpick but I like the demo.... It's a demo and as a demo it works. The nitpick for me would be some keybindings, such as spacebar for roll and jump being shift+direction key+ space.
Again I'll say I like what he game is and final verdict will be the release version.... And whatever patches come down after that. Time will indeed tell.
