FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

BOISE, ID—Monday September 14th, 2020 RogueJack by Ponywolf, where players delve into countless old school dungeons and play Blackjack to the death with a variety of creatures, received its 21th update since it launched in February of this year.

Notable features include improved Gamepad support, Keyboard shortcuts and hints, a new rapid play control scheme and countless of other additions recommended by the very vocal community of players who constantly reminded us “it’s been a while” and “they haven't seen anything new” from this “cheap, piece of garbage” game.

We talked to Ponywolf’s Founder and the designer/developer of RogueJack, Michael Wilson, but he was completely uninteresting. So instead we made up this quote that we will attribute to him instead:

“Making games is so easy! Java, java, physics, typing, mouse, mouse, mouse and BAM—you’re finished! Most of my day is spent eating gummy bears and watching HGTV.” —Michael Wilson, Founder of Ponywolf

Fascinating. He also mentioned something about a Steam week long deal, but we started to zone out.
