Attention Sword Smoochers!

We are happy to announce that the Boyfriend Dungeon Secret Weapons update is officially out NOW! To those returning to Verona Beach or visiting for the first time: Welcome! Axe, Hammer, Whip and the new Verona College dunj and more await you.



This is a free update and no additional purchase is required to play if you already own Boyfriend Dungeon. You will be able to play the update from your existing save files, but if you wanted to start fresh that's okay too.

Here is the full changelog:

NEW

• Midway through the nightclub dungeon (“La Rosa”), you will receive a text message. Responding to this message can lead you to new characters, weapons, a dungeon, dates, recipes, and more.
  
• To experience this content in an old save file, visit any dungeon or date, and then return to the apartment. You should receive the text message above, from someone named ‘S’.
  
• While exploring Verona Beach (the map “hub” screen), you may find 15 new “encounters” between weapons you’ve befriended.
  
• After receiving a birthday gift from a weapon, you will now see the gift appear in your apartment.
  
• Seven new achievements related to the new content have been added.
  
• This new content is equally compatible with old save files, or with newly started games.

BUGFIXES

• When you die in the dungeon, your weapon will now comment, including voice acting.
  
• When you start a dungeon run, your weapon’s comment voice acting audio will now follow you, as intended.
  
• All of Isaac/Estoc’s comments when starting a new dungeon run now have voice acting.
  
• Various typos and mistakes were fixed in the date text.

OTHER

• To account for the new content, the latter half of the nightclub dungeon (“La Rosa”) may have changed slightly.
  
• The game’s credits now include any new staff members and/or updated titles.
  
• Old “collect them all” achievement requirements have been updated to reflect the new content.

Hey!

So, Summer is coming to an end, and i wanted to write an update on where i have been. I've been thinking about what i want to do next, and it's becoming more evident that i can't continue working on Ragnorium as i previously envisioned.

The primary reason for this shift is that, in the end, life is just too short; i did what i wanted with the game as best as i could, and after early access, i thought that i could cram even more stuff for the fans, but it became evident that my mind wanted to do something else now after all these years. I thought i could get away with an original idea that i gave to the community, but in the end, i met my human limit; doing a game alone of this size is quite challenging.

Initially, i wanted to do just one map, but then i got pretty excited with the world-building and created four more maps, heck i even created over 40 different characters to give context to these worlds. As the player progressed, it became more apparent that the game's scope was just too big for one developer, especially during the electricity phase. Still, despite that, i liked what i created, and i enjoyed the stone age elements of the game best.

The secondary reason is that the design language of the game is outdated, and if i would do Ragnorium 2.0, it would still feel like 1.0 because it is using the underlying game as a base; it would be tough to improve the overall quality.

And thus, to keep my sanity, i have pivoted to something else. Now, if people start reporting bugs on discord, i will most certainly patch those bugs as part of my long-term maintenance support, but there is no guarantee when that will happen exactly.

Stay Strong and stay tuned for that next thing!

Playing as Gordy, you’ll go to band practice, do what you can to keep the band together, manage Gordy’s irresponsible finances and wellbeing, as well find time to earn enough money to cover rent, bills, and pretty much everything.
