RUINER OST is now separate from the game!2020-02-29Hello Puppies, We are back with one of the most frequently requested adjustments to our official soundtrack on Steam! From now on, you can purchase the RUINER OST on Steam independently of the game. It means that our soundtrack is purchasable and downloadable even by users who don't own the base game. To find it, go to your "music" directory inside the Steam client installation folder, rather than into a subdirectory of your main app. This adjustment is an extra change that was regularly suggested by our community. You can now use Steam Player to listen to your favourite songs from our OST. Here is how it looks: Enjoy, RUINERS https://store.s
Happy birthday Puppy! You're two years old now!2019-09-26Hello Puppies, Wow, time goes by fast! But, in a cyberpunk future, time can be very relative.

And, during these two amazing years, we’ve been continuously working to make Ruiner even better. Additionally, we’ve started development on our new title that we will reveal next year. But, before that happens, we've still got a couple of aces up our sleeve. To celebrate Ruiner’s second anniversary, we have a little gift for you… a special birthday outfit for Puppy! Downloa
