Version 1.5.0 a.k.a. 5th Anniversary Update!


Woo, boy!

This year marks the 5th year since Round Rotate was made and published! Of course, the actual anniversary day will happen late this August, which is less than 8 months from now.

Also this update originally supposed to release alongside a new trailer, however, my laptop's processor will never let me do one so... oh well.

Plus, this will be the very last update for this game before Round Rotate 2, the sequel to this game came out soon, so staaaaaaaay tuned!

What's new?

Well... not much is new besides the new SONAR logo, but there are some other UI changes as well.

  • Reworked main menu icons, now the colors should look better now ⁽ʰᵒᵖᵉᶠᵘˡˡʸ⁾

  • Removed the Links (previously Get Online) screen, and the menu item that originally leads to the screen was replaced with the link to SONAR's website

  • Removed the Warning screen at the start of the game since that's kind of unnecessary anymore

Aaaaaand that's pretty much it, however...

Last words

This game has been a Game Jolt exclusive for a long time now, but it's time for that to change!

Yes, this update (as well as the game itself) will also be available on itch.io and Kartridge simultaneously! However, in these releases, the features powered by Game Jolt's platform integration will get cut.

And with that, I officially declared, further development of Round Rotate 1 has reached its climax ᵘⁿˡᵉˢˢ ᶦᶠ ᵗʰᵉʳᵉ ᵃʳᵉ ᵇᵘᵍᶠᶦˣᵉˢ ᵗᵒ ᵇᵉ ᵈᵒⁿᵉ ᵒᶠ ᶜᵒᵘʳˢᵉ and the rest of its legacy will continue soon in Round Rotate 2.

Thank you very much for all of your support on this game and wish me luck for the future! (because I really need it right now hahaha)

Once you enter the Town Square for the first time, this cutscene will play once.

Also, these construction sites will take place of buildings I couldn't complete in time before the SAGE 2025 submission deadline. :\

Before I go on to work on Penumbra Forest, thought I'll show the progress on the Dripsdale Dex, one of the new features in Smitty 2

This is where you can learn more about many stuff you found throughout the game

Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!

Whew, after more than 2 weeks, I'm finally back to this project (taking a bit of break)

Anyway, this will the be last from the Town Square that I'll share, because I want to start working on Penumbra Forest next

A new quest celebrating Dead Pets Unleashed just entered your quest log!

Dead Pets Unleashed is a rock feminist adventure where you play as a demon named Gordy (the bassist of the punk band Dead Pets.)

Some more new Dropples!

Also, I might've forgot to tell that they'll appear once you break open their respective capsules
