• BROK the InvestiGator - New Trailer - 2 December 2021

  Here's a brand new trailer to celebrate the one year of the Prologue release & the original announcement! :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nf62mh_M03Q

• Full version of BROK is now slated for 2022 - 26 September 2021

  Hello BROK players! Well, you've seen the title. It's time to get realistic, I won't be able to release BROK this winter. Not that the development didn't progress well, on the contrary! But evaluating the work left for a videogame is tough, especially for such a complex game, and even with more artists helping on the title. The new plan is to have the adventure parts done for this year, so we can focus on the action parts early next year. Here's the current progress of the project: Please find a new character announcement, the cool crossover picture I used as thumbnail (which is just for fun!) and more info in the latest Kickstarter update (and check the previous ones if you haven't already, I post one every month!) => https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/cowcatgames/brok-the-investigator/posts/3311945

• Prologue 1.14.1 - 25 September 2021

  I have updated the build with 65 new fanarts (no code change)

• PROLOGUE 1.14 - 17 May 2021

  PROLOGUE 1.14 (May 18th 2021) ------------------------------------------ - Added better walk animations for Brok. - Fixed : Music sometimes didn't loop correctly during the interrogation. - Fixed : Cursor movement with gamepad was much slower than intended (it varied according to resolution but it shouldn't have.) - Fixed : Three music tracks were missing in the prologue. - Fixed : Changing the options saves the configuration when closing the menu. A bug made it save the configuration each time afterwards, even without changing anything. - Fixed : Added failsafe to check if the target list was not existing when enemies fight. - Added unique ID code at the end of the prologue. - Added 23 fanarts.
