Space Rogue Patch Notes — December 21, 2016
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
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. You will be 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.
How does it work?
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.
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!
Of course, when the feature is released, we will publish the detailed instruction and some kind of simple clear rules. 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.
When?
The update is planning to release soon.
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.
