Yep, The Dope Game 2 should be playable early-to-mid 2020. Art is being created, the base system is almost ready, and the majority of design is finished. This includes many of the ideas you guys put forth in our sequel thread.

An early access version will be available, once the playable alpha is ready, to let players test the system, help us make changes, and stress-test server capabilities. We expect almost all modes to be available.

Character modeling recruitment will also open up this winter to fill all the missing roles. For more information on being a character in the sequel, contact us at [email protected] for details.

We will have more information on the game available this winter with details on modes, multiplayer, etc. Stay tuned!

Hey, dope fiends! It's that time of year when the residents of Starkham don their favorite Halloween costumes and await their treats from all their trickery. This year from October 20th to November 2nd, The Dope Game Halloween event will be active!

As tradition dictates all the NPCs will be wearing their costumes and all the environments will be Halloween-themed. Even the illicit substances will be called by holiday-appropriate names. And if you can manage to collect 100 pieces of candy, you will be awarded with a special holiday achievement. If you don't, for whatever reason, meet this goal you can always reset your PC's clock and try again.

Happy holidays!

Hey, dope fiends! We are pushing another small patch to upgrade some stuff behind the scenes. While there is nothing really too exciting added, here is the change log so you can find out what was:

• Changed: functions handling achievements and statistics
  
• Changed: functions connecting to CoaguCo API
  
• Changed: streamlined some code
  

Happy new year!

Hey, dope fiends! The X-Mas event for the game has gone live and it adds a few things to the game, if you’ve not played during last year’s. The event will run until early January, usually around the 2nd.

The X-Mas event adds in two additional achievements, both tied to mini-games within the game. The first is for gifting each NPC a specific gift. The second is for destroying 12 different snowmen across Starkham. You will also notice that every area has gotten a layer of snow and all the characters have dressed up a bit. The names of all the drugs have also changed to more festive versions.

Happy holidays!

Hey dope fiends! Tonight we are pushing an update to The Stash DLC that updates the Android Edition of the game that is bundled inside. This fixes a few small issues with the game like the hospital interface showing up by default and removing some unused code from the desktop version.

Happy Halloween!
