We lived completely off the savings we made working 60-hour work weeks and emerged at the end of that tunnel with PTSD … and Rogue Legacy: a game about family, debt, and working yourself to death.” Teddy Lee, co-founder and lead designer at Cellar Door Games Until one day, we left our jobs, took all of the money we saved up from our little games, and went for one last hurrah. So for the next few years, we worked at our jobs by day while moonlighting as Flash game developers by night. Well, my brother and I were both working menial, unfulfilling jobs a long time ago – when we had an idea: What if we made a small Flash game about a purple dude shitting himself? It was a horrible plan that did surprisingly well – but tens of millions of plays later, we still barely made any money from it. So we accepted … and got to work!” Kenny Lee, co-founder and lead programmer at Cellar Door Games “We’re often asked about where exactly Rogue Legacy came from – and how we ended up becoming indie developers in the first place. But this was different because we’d be working with Caleb – and we were going to be completely hands-on. We were asked by other studios to do the port, but we always declined because we felt that the control scheme just wouldn’t be any good. A trusted friend contacted us saying he knew someone who wanted to port Rogue Legacy to mobile for us. “The development of Rogue Legacy: Wanderer Edition was a product of curiosity. An unexpected hit on Steam, Rogue Legacy was also successfully ported to the PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch – where it also received rave reviews from the press. Originally released in 2013 to critical acclaim, Rogue Legacy blew players’ minds with its novel approach to death: Upon dying, player characters passed their traits (and loot) to their descendants, who then lived on to fight another day. The iOS version features all the content found in the base game (including the Anniversary update) while adding tons of iOS-specific goodies: new traits, rooms, mini-bosses, and a completely remastered control scheme built from the ground up for touchscreens. Cellar Door Games has announced that its award-winning, wildly popular rogue-lite Rogue Legacy is now available on iOS for the first time as Rogue Legacy: Wanderer Edition.
