| Roboquest - Multiplayer Hotfix | 2026-03-25 | Hello Guardians!We've been watching the reports about the multiplayer for a while now, the negative reviews, and the kind requests to fix it.So we worked hard on our end and asked for help from SpaceRock (another development studio) and Epic Games. And with that, we managed to find a solution for the "session ID failing to generate" (leaving you unable to play in multiplayer with your friends).It was a arduous task as we had no way to recreate the problem internally, nor was SpaceRock. And the error message we were receiving from our backend was very vague (something like "random server problem").Everything pointed towards an issue between St |

| Roboquest - The End of the Journey | 2025-05-07 | Hello Guardians. It is with great emotion that we write this devblog today. We’ve been quite silent for the past months, not knowing exactly what to say, how to say it or when to say it. But today’s the day. 2025 marks nearly a decade working on Roboquest, and it also marks the end of the journey for the game. We know many of you would have loved to see more updates, more content, more Roboquest. But that isn't something we are able to deliver. Spending as much time on the same project takes a toll, and no matter how passionate we have been about Roboquest, it is finally time for us to look at new horizons. When we first designed Roboquest, i |
| Roboquest - News | 2025-03-21 | Hello Guardians! It's been quite a while since our previous news, but today we're back with a bunch of news mostly related to the Playstation port of Roboquest. 1 Million This past month, we reached a significant milestone, not only for the game, but also for our studio in general. Roboquest has sold over 1 million copies across all platforms. When we started the journey, we were mostly focused on living our passion, and making a great game. We were obviously hoping to have a bunch of players following us along the way, liking (or loving!) our game. At least enough to continue being able to make games. And you made us able to do so, you valid |

| Roboquest - Hotfix 1.5.2 | 2024-12-11 | Hello Guardians. We just released yet another hotfix for the Endless Update and we're continuing to monitor the feedback and bug / crashes are continuing to being tracked. Though with this hotfix, we should have taken down most of the glaring gamebreaking crashes. Bug Fixes • Goliath Driller and Goliath Diggler will no longer be stuck underground forever • Saving and Quitting will no longer fail to register Perks that have multiple choice contained within them (like Superbot's Homemade Cannon for example) • Ambient Volume should be properly tied to Master Volume regardless of your sound setup • Duke Nuker will no longer be stuck in its "morta |

This November 27th at 3pm CET we will be releasing the Endless Update.

| Roboquest - Make It Double | 2024-11-20 | Hey again Guardians. This is the final devblog for the incoming Endless Update. And it's going to be a short one. Let's talk about bosses. Endless Mode and Bosses We contemplated for a while what to do with Bosses in the Endless Mode. Are they even there? Yes, obviously, not adding them would make the game quite different from the normal mode, and probably hinder the build diversity in the process. Not only that, that would also be quite sad not to find your favourite Mole to whack. But, do we just add those as they are right now? Since you probably already fought them a lot and know their attack patterns and behaviour by heart, that might be |
| Roboquest - Over Nine Thousands | 2024-11-18 | Hello Guardians. Here's the third out of four quick devblog about the Endless Update. Today we'll be discussing the progression systems that support the Endless Mode. Singularity & Glitches When we were designing the new mode, we realized we needed something that would make Endless Mode more complete in its intent to be a replayable experience. And we felt like a "mutator" system would be a great solution to that. We called those "Singularities and Glitches". There are "main mutators" (Singularity) and "secondary mutators" (Glitch). Whenever you defeat a boss, it adds a random Singularity to your run, up to a certain maximum. And every other |
| Roboquest - Saving the Day | 2024-11-14 | Guardians, it's us again. We're back with more information on the Endless Update. Save & Resume The "Save & Resume" feature is coming in the Endless Update. "Finally, this should have been there day one". You'd probably be correct to think that. But it wasn't and there isn't much more we can say about it other than "our bad, sorry". To be fair, that was a lot of work and we wanted to make sure the main game architecture was final before starting it. But it's finally coming. When finishing a level, you'll be given the choice to "Save and Quit" the game. This will bring you back to the title screen. From there, clicking "Continue" will launch y |
| Roboquest - That Which Has No End | 2024-11-12 | Hello Guardians! Today we're back with a (short) devblog to talk about the elephant in the room. The "Endless" thingy. Let's hero cape right down :) The Endless Update Like many of you have guessed, the "Endless Update" is about adding an Endless Mode to the game. But there are many ways to implement such a system, so which direction did we go? To Loop or not to Loop The first major question we had to answer was "would the endless mode be based on playing another run while keeping all your perks from the previous one?". Basically "looping" through the game. And the simple answer we came up with was "no". Looping wasn't the best choice for the |
| Roboquest - 8 years in the making | 2024-11-07 | Hello Guardians! Today's a special day, it marks the first anniversary of the 1.0 release. But it is also more or less the eighth year we've been working on it and the fourth year since its first Early Access public release. To celebrate, we thought we'd take a trip down memory lane and take you with us (or at least those interested in it). In this post, we'll be showcasing some (very) old footage alongside visuals you've probably never seen before. It will highlight the different phases the project went through. And that later became the game you're playing now. The Beginning? "Eight years?!" You might think it's too long for a game this siz |

| Roboquest x Flat2VR | 2024-10-08 | Hello Guardians! Some of you have been asking us about the VR version of Roboquest which trailer was revealed at Gamescom 2024. We're here to talk about it. Throughout this article, we'll refer to Roboquest VR as "RQVR" and Roboquest simply as "RQ". First of all, know that RQVR isn't tied to RQ, it is a standalone game. Owning RQ won't give you access to RQVR. It has a set of specific and unique features related to VR. It isn't just a 'port' of the game, it's a full VR adaptation. And RQVR is developed by "Flat2VR Studios", a studio specialized in VR games. They already made several VR versions of well-known games. Find info about them here. |
