Evaluation
Rogue Stormers launched on April 21, 2016. After launch, Black Forest Games continued supporting it with two major content updates. The first, "The Rise of Hindenbork," shipped on May 19, 2017, adding a new mission, a new boss (the Hindenbork gunship), a new enemy (the Fire Orc), and 17 new upgrades. The second and final major update — the "GUILT Update" — arrived on June 21, 2018, adding a new region (The Glare), new enemies (the Feeder), a new follower character (Issa the Sniper), game-over cutscenes, and social/base management systems. The June 21, 2018 update is the last recorded developer communication of any kind across all 49 news posts scanned. No further content has been announced, no unreleased DLC is listed on the store, and there is no developer activity beyond that date. The game launched as a complete paid product, received two meaningful post-launch content expansions, and has been finished since June 2018.

About this game
Delve deep into the oil rig city of Ravensdale. A medieval metropolis that went bonkers after the people discovered goop - a raw fluid that provided energy, skin cream, bread spread and powered diesel engines. And it turned the people of Ravensdale into raging, bloodthirsty monsters. Lucky for them they have you, leading a pack of lunatic knights on a killing spree to save the city.
Your goal is to fight and beat the ultimate evil threatening Ravensdale - but in order to beat him, you need to fight your way through 7 increasingly challenging levels. If you die, you'll be back at square one. Earned perks are yours to keep, allowing your character to grow stronger with each new raid.
Our technology enables us to layer and combine level chunks to create meaningful level combinations with infinite replayability. An ever-growing cast of enemies, hazards and loot is layered within each chunk, generating incredible diversity.
Tons of different upgrades and weapons will cause each new session to play in a unique fashion, depending on which weapons or upgrades you pick and get. Adding to that are five unlockable character classes, each with its own skills and base weapon.
The further you delve into the vast undercity of Ravensdale, the more you will learn about the city's history and that of its citizens, as well as the tragic backgrounds of the five heroes who took arms to save the city.
All these factors combined determine how you’ll engage the sprawling city of Ravensdale. Will you go toe to toe with your enemies or pick them off them from a distance? Will you cripple your enemies, block attacks or just blast everything apart with pure damage?
