  • Rejuv v14 Update Dev Blog | 7/29/2024


    Jan

    Hi! It's been quite some time since I've written a proper dev blog post here, huh? I can't even remember the last thing I said publicly,
    so I'll just regurgitate some information I've thrown around recently. Sorry if that's old news!
    Well, this version is a special version where nearly everything I show is a spoiler, so showing stuff has been really hard-- But I want people to know that
    development is going quite well! Here are the avg percentages for Paragon (Renegade has not been worked on yet.)

    Part 1: 90% Completed
    Part 2: 45% Completed
    Part 3: 90% Completed.


    So as you can see, a lot has happened in nearly a year since .5's release (Jesus christ, it's been that long?)
    I feel like I could've been farther along, but unfortunately I've hit some irl snags, as we all do. My childhood cat Jupiter, who was 16, passed away.
    That was rouugh. Then other personal things I won't get into really bogged me down... Fortunately, I can feel my productivity coming back bit by bit.

    Besides that sappy stuff, I do have SOME stuff to show you. Just a collection of screenshots I had on my twitter, and some things I had on patreon.
    But before that, here's a big one. Reldin Island got a glow up!

    There's a whole other section to this place, but I'm gonna keep that a secret for now :3.

    But yeah, that's pretty much it for now. Please know that even though updates will still be a bit scarce, I am doing my best to get this done ASAP. Conversely, I am also taking my itty bitty time with things because I want this version to be good lol. From what I've made, I think it will be. Very packed with content. Also did I say Gen 9 was being implemented for v14? if not then surprise !

     

    I'll be back... in a month or two or something. idk. Anyways yaaaaaaa

    Glad to hear everything is good, no reason to rush really. Since it should be a climactic story point might as well make it perfect and polished from the get go. We can wait.

    Great to hear an update, but may I ask, since Gen 9 pokemon will be coming in v14, does that mean a lot of Rivals/trainers/gym leaders will be getting overhauled to add some of the new pokemon to their teams?

    Yo Super Bro, random question. You guys got any plans for a replay feature like in Saints Row 1? (Ex: go to bed in GDC and “dream” of previous chapters or events without it affecting your game play)

     

    I love Renegade and wanna replay it from the beginning without making new characters, even if its on my paragon play through.

     

    Just throwing it out there, doesn’t have to be for V14

    Question, have you tried to copy over a save file from Renegade start?
    like changing Game.rxdata to Game_2.rxdata so youd have a save always at the beginning of Renegade and just not save during it to redo it as many times as you want?
    (Or if you save, have the Renegade start file on desktop so you can replace the save with renegade start whenever you want)

    Ayyy, glad to see another update blog! Please take your time with the game and pace yourself - I’m also sorry about the loss of your cat :(

     

    Question, though - do you or the Rejuv team have any plans on editing the story with the next update? Or will it merely be an expansion? This may be a personal take but I feel the story gets really convoluted later in the game (you can probably find discussions about it somewhere around here or on the subreddit; it’s been a while since I last played) so I was wondering what would happen with that.

     

    either way, I can’t wait for v14. I’m sure it’ll be amazing. Thank you for all your hard work thus far ^^

    Beat Renegade already, so how would I find that old file? Files and stuff arent my forte, all I’d know is to look for her name

    Gen 9 implemented is great news! I would love to have the new 'snow' weather in rejuv, Ice is my all time favourite type and they finally gave it some love with snow and Chienpao.

    I just hope we can get some kind of Battle Logger like in Deso, so there's some kind of repeatable battles to do once you've completed the episode to test teams against, or just for fun. It's fun to be able to effectively rematch earlier Gym Leaders and important battles with current story-level teams/field effects and gives something to do once you've finished the main story and side content.

    Im hoping we get opportunities to Yeet and Delete random grunts at will, like “Delete Grunt Sammy” (Yes/No)

     

    If you’re gonna be evil, go all the way. Why settle for just story options?

    Extremely late reply—sorry—but it's really just story expansion! V13 and .5 took care of pretty much everything that needed an overhaul, from this point forward you're pretty much safe to just start up from where you left off and continue the story right away without having to worry about missing any substantial story changes.

    Hi, I was just wondering but since a lot of the Reborn passwords have been added, are the Monotype passwords going to be added in this update?

    I'm wondering this too, type specialized runs are fun, especially after the difficulty got toned down a lot.
    Any chance of monotype passwords and one that restores the old difficulty?

  • V14 is still very much in active development! We just can't show anything that's not OOC nonsense from the devs because it's all spoilers. Sorry!

     

    On a more serious note, along with not having as many dev blog posts, the official website will stay down until V14 is released as to not jeopardize the game's development with having too much of an online presence after the turbulence surrounding fan projects lately. We hope you understand our decision for doing so!

     

    Now... Back to the nonsense!
