Space Rogue Workshop And Price Cut
You've waited long enough!
Today we're happy to announce that Workshop is finally available. Let the Steam update Space Rogue to the latest version, and begin designing your own cosmic adventures!
Stories Created By You
Try yourself in the role of the game designer and share your creativity with other players! With the Workshop, you are able to construct complex multi-steps missions or quick simple events with your own narrative, unexpected plot twists, cheerful rewards and cruel penalties (or vice versa!). Your authorship and contacts will be shown right next to the content you've created.
If you don't feel like creating stuff, just install event packages made by other players and vary your walkthrough with cool new content. If you like it, vote for it and support the authors with your comments.
Price cut
In order to involve more people to try the new Workshop, we're making Space Rogue more accessible. From now on you can buy Space Rogue 50% cheaper than before on a permanent basis!
How does it work?
If you want to play some user created missions, launch the game, choose Workshop option. In the Packages section, you will see all available packs of content. Choose what pack you want to play, press Install and set the frequency of occurring. Then start a new game and enjoy!
If you want to create a new complex mission or an event, launch the game, choose Workshop, then My Workshop and start working on your piece of art. When it's ready, press 'Publish'. Keep in mind, before your content can be published, it must pass moderation. This way we can prevent catalog littering with mistakenly added events and inappropriate content. After the moderation, your pack will appear in the catalog available for all Space Rogue players.
Now you can watch a quick video:

This is Steam Workshop, right?
No, our system won't be synchronized with Steam Workshop. It's independent Space Rogue in-game tool.
Are there any rules for packages? What is allowed to publish?
The rules are common sense, basically. Do not swear more than necessary, do not use porn images, do not spam etc. Anyway, even if there is something wrong with your package, we will send you an e-mail. We're open for discussion and happy to help.
How do I get my package published?
After you make your story or pack of events, press Publish in My Packages screen. It will be sent directly to us for moderation. Usually, it takes no more than a day. Before you send your package to us, please, check the package yourself with Debug option.
Is it safe to install users' packages?
Users are not allowed to do anything that will "break" the game with this editor. So, yes, it's safe. However, like in any game on Steam, there might be some minor bugs. If you see anything, please, report it immediately. Thank you!

Space Rogue combines strategy, tactics and adventure in a game that gives you complete freedom to explore the galaxy and choose your own goals. In Sandbox Mode, you even have the ability to fine-tune various game parameters (enemy strength, random event frequency, weapon power,etc).
Keep cannons at the ready! Nearly all the random events have several different outcomes.
OTHER FEATURES:
The next big thing
Good day, captains!
We have some great news for you today. The next big thing is coming! We've often being asked: "I completed all the main missions available in Space Rogue. What else can I do in the game?". Of course, there are the sandbox mode, several ships to try, tons of weapons and cartridges, undiscovered random events, and so on. However, we've always been thinking how we can improve your narrative experience, and encourage you to immerse to the game universe. So, today we're happy to announce a new major feature - User Generated Content!
Beware, its' still work in progress, so it might be some troubles on the release.
Stories Created By You
Try yourself in the role of the game designer and share your creativity with players! In the next update, we will add the tool for constructing in-game events.

Your authorship and contacts will be shown right next to the content you've created.
If you don't feel like creating stuff, just install event packages made by other players and vary your walkthrough with cool new content. If you like it, vote for it and support the authors with your comments.

What's next?
If you like this tool (we think, it's great!), we will expand the system further - you'll get opportunity to create main missions like 'The Sleeping Threat' and translate Space Rogue to any languages.

Space Rogue 1.11 Patch Notes
We're keep working on the new content for Space Rogue. Today Space Rogue gets the minor 1.11 update with a few features:
"Buy all tritanium" button – now you can buy all tritanium ore at the stations in just one click;
Crew members tooltips – hover your or enemy's crew member to get the information;
Other minor changes and bugfixes.
Also, right now we're preparing a huge update for you. Details on it we will share in a couple of days, so stay tuned!
Space Rogue Release 1.1 Update
Greetings, captains!
Today is the day of the promised Release 1.1 update. A few great new features and a lot of tweaks and fixes according to your feedback are waiting for you.
Captain's Perks
Captain's perks give permanent passive bonuses. We designed them to support various in-game tactics and playstyles.
For example, you can choose "Sergeant Ripper" perk, if you like boarding enemy ships. This perk gives a special mordren warrior for your team and increases damage dealt by your crew.
If missiles are your weapon of choice, consider "Missile engineer" perk to drastically increase missile effectiveness.
Want an easy start? Became "Favorite" and your high-society connections will provide several benefits. Like additional credits and tritanium at the start of the game.
Perks unlock in small packs as you level up your captain's profile (expect two-three perks per each unlock).
To activate a perk, you must put it into an active perk slot before starting a new game. At first, you gain access for one perk slot only. You may unlock additional slot later and even further customize you in-game experience.
Perks unlock a little bit further in the game.
New Playable Ship
If you have to do some serious stuff, those defective meatbags as chax, humans or oaklana are not suitable for this kind of work. Take command of a team of cool-headed and ruthless robots on the innovatively designed ship.
The ship is available after reaching level 11.
Balance tweaks and technical improvements
According to your feedback, we made the game more balanced and comfortable.
New captain's order: "Block the bay"
Now there's a chance of 2 space stations in a sector;
Now you can't receive damage during mining;
Other numerous balance tweaks;
Fixed a lot of bugs that caused crashes and other problems.
If you have any problems after this update, feel free to report us here, on Steam community or to support@red-beat.com.

If you like the game, we'd be really greatful for your review on Steam.
Thank you and stay tuned!

It's been a great year and a half of development, and it wouldn't have been so amazing without you. Your support means the world to us.
Thank you very much!

Space Rogue is now stable and has all features that we've planned for release, so there's no any reason for delaying.
What happens next? Is the game completed?
This is not the end of story. You may expect at least one free content update after release, and we're going to develop Space Rogue further as long, as we have resources for it. Also, regardless of content updates, we will provide full technical support.
I have a problem with the game. How can I contact you?
