GOOD NEWS EVERYONE

ROTT v1.5.5 is finally here and with it comes proper Steam Workshop + GOG Galaxy crossplay. ROTT is the first game in history ever to do this and it wasn't easy. Don't ask us how we did it - WE JUST DID.

The update also includes a 64 bit .exe, improved dedicated server tool and a bunch of other changes. See the full changelog below!

GOG players! Be sure to ask the community here if you have any questions about modding, maps or MAYHEM. Yes! every single Steam Workshop map will work with your GOG version of the game! Yes! You can join in on Saturday Night ROTT from your GOG Galaxy client. Yes! You will still be killed by Nore anyway.

Some things never change.

See you for v1.666... SOON™

SOON.

No really, Andrew is almost done with it. It will be 30 tracks and like 2 hours of music. We're even going to put the new songs INTO the game

Actually we basically cross hacked a bunch of Steamworks code into GOG Galaxy and vice versa. #YOLO

Co-Op campaign is not likely but co-op Horde Mode is possible and somewhat implemented - stay tuned!

3 questions:
1.How are the new tracks going to be implemented into the game? (Part of me hopes for new SP levels, but I know that's unlikely...)
2.How many new tracks will there be?
3. Will the soundtrack release include the original ROTT 95 versions of the songs as well?

1. We'll find places for them (some levels have repeat songs now)
2. 30 total sooo 4-5 new ones?
3. Sure, why not!
