Hello everyone,

A big event took place in our neck of the woods on 24th February: the Budapest Game Dev Day Academy, which is the largest conference for game developers in Hungary. Over 20 dev teams and studios showed up at the event, which also featured more than 30 presentations and panel discussions. The last Game Dev Day was held in 2020, and it was amazing to take part in one now, after three long years.

Hello everyone,

Recently, we have shared posts pertaining to various areas of development, such as multi-platform controller support (featuring an adaptive button UI and drag & drop system), mobile and tablet porting & screen optimization of Vagrus for all mobile devices and the recently released Steam Deck, and finally, Localization in the shape of community translations. This post is going to be a bit different.

Hello everyone,

Back in December 2021, we posted a project update regarding our high-level plans for this year. One of these grand plans was to get featured on more game store platforms and the great news is that we’ve finally managed a breakthrough. We are overjoyed to announce that we are coming to the Humble Bundle storefront! Please be advised that Vagrus is not going to be included in any Bundle just yet, though it will be present on the storefront itself. People purchasing the game there will receive a Steam Key.

Hello everyone,

This one is going to be an update on localization. A while back, we cited the game’s complexity, size, and it being a niche game that resulted in a relatively low sales volume as factors that made any kind of localization unlikely. Despite that, we have been encouraging players to still wishlist the game and let us know what languages they would like to see it translated into in a dedicated localization thread and promised to reassess the situation after a while to see what is desired and viable and what is not. A year has passed since, and it is time for us to do just that, which led to a good and bad news kind of situation. The bad news is that sales figures and declining wishlists in non-English-speaking regions made the prospect of official translations not viable.
