RogueCraft News

Hey everyone, and thank you for supporting RogueCraft!
We’re back with a brand-new update — Demo version 0.9 is live!
This patch includes a new map, fun side events, and lots of quality-of-life improvements based on your feedback. Let’s dive into what’s new:


We’ve added a brand-new map: Labyrinth!
Winter map is temporarily disabled as we focus testing on Labyrinth.
What’s special about Labyrinth? At the start of each wave, one of five Mimic Books appears. When destroyed, each book buffs all enemies in different ways:

1. Increases resistances
   
2. Heals nearby enemies
   
3. Ignores physical damage
   
4. Speeds up enemy movement
   
5. Increases armor
   

Let us know what you think — we’re actively looking for feedback on both balance and bugs!


Starting from Wave 7, a friendly villager might appear to host a Chicken Race!
Bet your gold on the winning chicken. If your pick wins — you’ll get 5x your bet. Second place? 2x. Risky but fun!


A mini-game where you must follow the right cup to find a hidden item. Watch closely — the cups move fast!


Villagers escape the town for a quick picnic along the trail... right as monsters arrive.
Defend them! If villagers die, you lose lives — so stay sharp.

🎉 Update 0.8 is live!
This version brings exciting new features and improvements based on your feedback:

🛒 Abyss Shop
A mysterious trader now roams the battlefield. He offers rare and powerful items, even those normally locked in the demo.
Low on gold? You can trade your own life for loot.
Rumor has it... he collects cursed things — and might even offer a discount if you give him one.

📦 Magic Chest
Sometimes you'll find a shimmering chest on the battlefield. Crack it open and claim its random contents — items, potions, and surprises await!

🛠️ Quality of Life & UX Improvements

- Fixed how much gold you’ll earn next wave
- Hovering over the heart icon shows Regen per wave
- Multiple small UI/UX tweaks to make everything feel smoother

Thank you for playing and supporting the game — and as always, we’re reading every bit of feedback ❤️
Good luck in the Abyss.
