Well, that explains a lot.

Was literally just checking out the steam page and thinking "wtf is the main protag?" Actually can't tell if male or female...just looks like some androgynous it.

Clearly a self-insert.

Update on the next update!
It's update season! Updates within updates!

Hello! We are alive!

For those of you who have been paying attention, we previously said that the next big update would be between March and July. Well, it's gonna be July, lol. But that aside, things are going really good!

The next region is "map_chopshop", a section of underground rail tunnels which have been converted into makeshift garages and shanties by New Zabra's mysterious subterranean denizens, the Grajiik.

For this level, we decided to go a bit more conventional than on the Pinafore centrifugal spaceship. We've been playing some objective-based semi stealth shooters recently (Timesplitters 2!) and we want to try doing a more straightforward structure inspired by these!

But, naturally, since we are Team Fortune, this return to a more standard format must also be accompanied with several wacky additions in engine technology.

Introducing... Y2K useable turret emplacements!

Enemies can now occupy static turrets and use them to defend their positions more effectively. The player can of course use them as well!

This also extends to other creative turret types such as the stealth game classics... Spotlights, featuring the bucket sniper from blight town!

Along with these new quite frankly revolutionary additions, we also have some cutting edge graphics tech to show off. The special shader which we used to render voxel grass in the tutorial level has now been expanded to other types of surfaces. Volumetric pixelated garbage! A bit like those MMO minecraft clones!

3159ca1ced67e3394a6aa9c6a7b3b7ab3347ed2d.png


Also, you know what we didn't have in the other levels? Cameras! How can you have an immersive sim without cameras! But of course we can't do anything normally, so instead of being a camera that you can hack and see through, our cameras are actually high density laser scanners which have a rhythmic pattern that you will have to evade with acrobatics.

2b7500dec69964e173a031ed69e0a35b9c34e556.png


And this is only the beginning of the new features which you will be playing in a few months. Soon, more information on:
  • New hacking puzzles
  • New enemy types
  • Cute droids
  • New searchable, moveable corpses with Octahedral 3dVision Technology
  • New weapons, including a tool which can restore power to devices in the world
Stay tuned, Space Cowboy.
-Team Fortune

The most underrated game of the last two decades and spiritual successor to CyberMage and Deus Ex, but with shooting to rival the best the FPS genre has to offer, is getting a big fat update. Other games fake it, in Fortune's Run they will actually send reinforcements from their HQ. And we'll be getting a look at where they manufacture all those crates featured in shooters. It's a shame people were too busy jerking off to flavors of the month to buy enough copies to fund the developers going fulltime with it so this will be out in August instead of months ago. There is nothing else on the market like it so I'm hyped and you should be too.

The stealth updates are very necessary, I played the first EA release when it came out and it's a superb game but the stealth did feel very undercooked. Less like Deus Ex stealth and more like Far Cry stealth, where it's basically just about getting into a good position and getting one free kill before the inevitable gunfight starts.

It's good they're still working hard on this, the level of detail in the EA release was simultaneously heartening because it was so good but also discouraging because there's just no way they're going to be able to make a full game of that in any kind of reasonable timespan.

The game isn't finished yet. There's nothing to be rated, or underrated.
You can evaluate games by their title screens and game dev physiognomy alone, Fortune's Run has several sizeable chunks of the game released and it's the sort of game you only see every other decade or so. If the developers manage to finish this and don't get tired of doing this as a second job, the first probably being jizzing in the starbucks cups of tech-cucks, it is bound to become one of the greats. Codexers need some youtubers like Mandabore or (((Seth))) to sell them on it first though before their brains allow them to consider a game good, some even listen to G-manshills. But before some guy fake-casually holding an expensive microphone, filming himself sitting on a bowling pin and fake-drinking a cup of Joe and talking like he's about to burst into tears, while making some three hour length video on the game - thus making it finally acceptable for you to say you like it, you can actually just tell that it is a great game right now.

It's already the best game of its kind since Deus Ex and it will be among the best when it's done.
Isnt this the game where you play as a tranny?
No, whatever gave you that idea?

I wouldn't listen to Jenkem, he's big into trannies and discredited after shilling Troon Delusion and some of the worst shooter revivals. Since this game started out as a Doom mod IIRC one of the devs might be one though, it's not something present in the game though. There is no they/theming or stories of transitions like in Delusion, and there is no political virtue signalling at all. No abundance of niggers with the turd haircut, no wokery, no social messaging. I'm willing to bet good money that the Doom mod Ashes had troon devs, because it's not just a Doom mod but also post-apocalyptic and very Fallout-y, do the math. As long as they're not ideologues and can keep their dick in their pants, er, skirt, these are the same shut-in autistic guys that would have made great game devs back in the 90's before the kikes started grooming these vulnerable and lonely porn-addicted young men on a mass scale.

The jury is out on this one though, devs might just be regular autists, there is no way to tell. The protagonist of the game is unambigiously a woman, albeit one with small tits. I don't promote kiked trash and games like Thief 2: The Nigger Age was too woke for me. It's pretty crazy how much Codexers will tolerate just because a game comes from a prestige studio, like the ultra woke Prey reboot that's just like Kike Levine's awful System Shock 2, and that gets praised to no end while brainwashing you into a gay retard. This original game with no bullshit, no politics and the sort of grit that the neo-gender commissars seem alergic to comes along and it not only has the raw uncut 90's gameplay but the style to back it up, and now is the time to develop a hyper-sensitive political conciousness to ask the question if not having big enough tits is enough to give a game the troon stamp?

First time I saw some screenshots and art from this game I was certain that the main character is a man. Then I found out its a very ugly, manly woman. That made me think that its probably a self insert of a tranny and later I did heard that one of the leads of on this game is a tranny.

I don't care myself, but there is no mystery here. Both developers are literally trans. They stated it explicitly in this tweet.



I care about single player games being finished before I play them, especially in this day and age. Until this one is, I'm not buying or playing it.

Yeah I don't know what his deal is unless he's planning to make the devs detrans at gunpoint.
I think the game has a lot of potential but let's be real, autistic men can do great things but they can also fuck it up due to their derangements or just never finish it because they said fuck it and Rope'd.

An oasis of love and friendship.
Make the Codex Great Again! Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag. I helped put crap in Monomyth
devs: we put a heckin' rape scene in our game based on our own experiences of being... le raped!
Be Kind Rewind : there is no political virtue signalling at all! the devs aren't trans even though they say are!! and even if they were... you're a bigot!

the fact that you are all over the place in your post shows how much of a retard you are. you are probably trans yourself with how little consistency you are able to muster even in the same fucking post.

Hi!

I have some really, extremely bad news.

As some of you may know, this game is being worked on by two people; I, Dizzie, and Arachne, my wife. Previously we attempted to collaborate with more people, but long story short, we couldn't afford anything anywhere near full-time because the game just doesn't make that much money. Today, aside from some VA, all responsibilities are split between the two of us.

About three weeks ago, Arachne had a major surgery. Everything should have went well and we were planning on resuming production at a slower pace about a week and a half later, with me taking over some of the more demanding responsibilities as she recovers for the rest of the year. That is no longer happening. She has had multiple complications from the surgery and had to be hospitalized in the ICU two days after being released from the surgery center. We've been bouncing around between different departments and hospitals for about a week now. Long story short, she was very ill and almost died but is now stable and has been released home into my care.

So, yeah, this is a pretty big deal and it changes everything for us. Her health is now the priority. If you've been paying attention, you'll know that in order to deliver content on time, we've been doing crunch constantly for the past 3 years. That can't be happening anymore. She's my priority and I'm going to have to push back all the deadlines since I'll be working much less and by myself in the foreseeable future.

I'm trying my best to make sure we can continue working on the game to some degree because this story is very personal to the both of us and we want to see it through. It's not just a question of delivering the EA promises, we're talking about things that we've lived and that matter to us a lot. It would be very difficult for us to somehow leave these things unsaid. But that's very optimistic! You may expect more depressing announcements in the near future where I set new, less ambitious goals for the project.

In the meantime, I'll be working somewhat part timely on content and still trying to ship the August deadline, but starting from today, all deadlines are fully optional. Some of the content will be missing since Arachne can just not finish it. I'm not sure what the release will look like yet, it's likely to not be the tip top professional affair you guys have been habituated to by our incredible standards, ha ha! But it should be something; it's important to the both of us that we deliver
something
.

So, that's it guys. Long story short, we're alive but going through some stuff. Game is not cancelled, but game is being probably delayed some significant amount. We'll continue posting updates, we're always on Discord pretty much 24/7, especially now that Arachne is bedridden
steamsad
so if you have any questions, go on and ask. Just know that we, as usual, don't like talking about our personal lives that much, so we probably will want to avoid specific gory details about her health and so on. But we can keep you guys in the loop as to what we're doing with our lives, since that's relevant to what you bought.

Doing our best to continue not dying,
-Team Fortune

Called it.
Sucks, expected at least one more level before it happened.

Interested to see what Be Kind Rewind has to say about all this now.
What? I've been consistent about this since forever, kikes have been trooning the no-lifer hacker autistic dweeb types through social engineering and this batch just happened to retain enough T and sanity to make a great product, the beginning of one anyway, like in the old days. If they had kept at it then it would have been one of the great revivals, trooning or no trooning. It's all fucked now though since one of them almost died cutting his testicles and cock off or whatever. For some reason Doom modders fall for these jewish memes quicker than other indies, so it's not like it's a big shock that the devs are trannies, pretty sure I called it many pages back, but I also said the game wasn't ideologically trooned and I stand by it.

This is one of the big reasons video games are so fucked these days, people aren't born troons, they're groomed into it. If we lived in a less kiked society then these two guys would have been more well adjusted and would have put out a truly great game without dying of crotch wound infections. Without mass culture being in the hands of kikes people like Bill Heineman would still be writing impressive compression algorithms instead of trooning out, and the cracker of Denuvo wouldn't be more famous for being an insane troon than wrecking one of the worst DRMs we've seen yet.

Troons didn't invade our hobby, many great people within it were groomed into becoming ones, and these days many before they even got any real work done in the industry. These two had great potential, a lot of talent, and mastered multiple disciplines, it makes it all the more bitter that they were captured by the enemy. Fortune's Run isn't that game made by trannies, it's that game the kikes stole from us. They kept all the they/them shit out of the game, refrained from troon flags and neon purple, and added a rape scene influenced by personal experience for maximum realism (based), and made a gameplay-first game. All for nothing since now totally unnecessary health issues killed development.

I know a good thing when I see it, and this was it.

RIP Fortune's Run.

Welp, I thought there was a complication due to a serious operation for sure, but if it's due to tranny stuff, then it sucks to be these two. I guess this game has... Run out of fortune. *yeah*

It can't be worse than Selaco's "no ending, just a TO BE CONTINUED" endgame.

There's a chance it wasn't a frankenvag operation but I don't want to trawl his twitter to look for hints about it.
