- Please Wishlist Cabs Of Chaos! - 27 August 2026
Hey everyone!It’s been quite a while since I released RPG Tycoon, but I wanted to drop in with a little update on what I’ve been working on since.RPG Tycoon gave me my first real foothold in the games industry, and I’m incredibly thankful to everyone who bought, played, reviewed or supported the game.Since then, I’ve spent years working full-time across different companies and game studios, learning a huge amount about game development and game design along the way.And now, I’m finally returning to indie development with a brand new game!The game is called Cabs of Chaos. It's a fast-paced arcade driving game where you race around the city picking up passengers, and compete with other drivers to deliver them. Causing a healthy amount of mayhem along the way.It’s a very different game from RPG Tycoon, but it’s still being built with a lot of the same things I love about making games: play…

- RPG Tycoon 1.4.8 Hotfix - 2 January 2017
Firstly, Happy New Year to you all! I hope you've had a wonderful holiday period and I'd just like to thank anyone that's purchased RPG Tycoon and joined the community from the Winter Sale. I hope you're enjoying the game. This one is just a quick patch to fix a rather major loading issue for some save-files should you have a kingdom with a custom named character. Sorry about that one, these kingdoms should now load properly. As always, if you experience any bugs please post a note of them in the bug section on the forum as this gives me chance to see them, attempt to replicate the issue and work towards a fix for you. Focus on the game for the foreseeable future will be fixing remaining bugs, current features and improving usability in both the base game and DLC. Cheers, Matt
