- Duke of Defense Is Now Available! - 13 April 2019
Hey everyone, Seabass here! You may have noticed that I went silent for a while... I spent about a year working on a new game that I feel is my greatest work and one that I am actually very proud of. I poured my soul into this game and really wanted to create a passion fueled experience. The soundtrack is HUGE, there is a LOT of content, and of course a healthy dose of my silly Seabass humor. It would mean a lot to me if you could share with me how you feel about this new direction I've taken. https://store.steampowered.com/app/882210/Duke_of_Defense/
- The Dev Journey (50% off for Summer sale!) - 22 June 2018
Hey rockstars and washed-up-has-been rockstars! Today we would like to take a moment to celebrate/discuss how far this game has come. Tycoon games have always been held to a pretty high standard in regards to balance and pacing. The truth to it is that no game will be perfect for everyone and Rock God Tycoon is no exception. We've read reviews praising the game for being the very best tycoon game they've ever played! But we have also read reviews stating that this is the absolute worst game they've ever played. Neither side is wrong, they just enjoy different games. With that out of the way... We are proud of how far this game has come and now we will go on a short journey following the development of Rock God Tycoon. Was it a coincidence? Many years ago Panos (the artist) and I met through a website called IndieDB in its job section. He had made a post requesting to team up with a prog…
- Small fix for missing backgrounds! - 15 March 2018
Missing backgrounds We've made a small change that hopefully will resolve the issue where the apartment backgrounds won't load correctly. This won't resolve the issue with intel integrated graphics as that is out of our control. Seabass's Twitter (programmer) Panos's Twitter (artist) Keep rockin' on! :RockSign:

- Update 1.2.2.0, Engine update! - 10 December 2017

- Update 1.2.1.0, Unlocked character customization! - 13 September 2017
You requested it so we delivered it Character customizations are now unlocked for both bandmates and players. This means you can change your drummers hairstyle or beard. No limitations besides the exception of gender and skin tone. New shirts Panos got around to creating some cool new shirts. Take a peep! These definitely are more unique than the other shirts currently available ingame so you should consider trying them out. More polish It appears we overlooked some minor details in character customization such as the scrollbar not checking for the mouse properly and some buttons not being shown as disabled. Fear not as all is well now. Changelog 1.2.1.0 Characters (both player and bandmates) can be fully edited now with the exceptions of gender and skin tone Added five new shirts Improved mouse checking for scrollbars in character customization Beard/Beard color buttons are now be visu…

- Update 1.2.0.8, a much needed update! - 12 September 2017
Improving basd on your feedback After a much needed break from development we're coming back to improve the quality of life for RGT. In the coming days Panos plans to bring in some more customization options for characters! Time freeze bug We've heard a lot of people bring up the time freezing bug and yet a ton of players were able to play upwards of 50 hours without any issues. Since it didn't seem urgent it got pushed off for a while but we're finally attempting to resolve it. I've made some changes to the code surrounding record deals and booked events that should hopefully prevent anymore time freezes from occuring. As always your feedback is crucial so if you still get the bug please exit the game and email me a copy of your save file so that I may further diagnose the issue. Windowed mode is back After a number of complaints we switched the game to borderless windowed instead of n…

- Update 1.2.0.7 Song Creation, Copy/Pasting! - 13 August 2017
Your requests have been heard The past few months have been fantastic and we really appreciate all the support, feedback, and kindness we've seen from the community. One major request we've heard has been the need for copy/pasting in the song editor. It was not originally implemented due to the complexity of it. As a way of giving back we've spent the time and implemented copy/pasting! We are also discussing adding more content to the game so you can expect that at some point. Thanks to everyone who purchased Rock God Tycoon during this weekly sale! You guys rock! We would love to be able to pursue game development full-time so seeing all of you awesome people join in and support the game really means a lot to us.

- Hotfix for 1.2.0.6 - 30 July 2017
The most recent update (1.2.0.6) was missing "homes.pack" which led to no home backgrounds appearing. This has been fixed. Yearly awards should add to the billboard stats properly now. *Edit* Our DRM was acting up due to my own stupidity. This has been hotfixed.
