Rogue is a point-and-click adventure game in the style of LucasArts classic games. It was developed using Adventure Game Studio.
Since it was developed during October/November, it's a short game, but I'm pleased with how it turned out. I hope you all enjoy it!

You've made it possible for me to add the CG artwork to Human Cargo, that I wouldn't have been able to commission otherwise. I have more artwork in the queue, plus a couple other surprises coming!

2019-11-20 00:04:09 +0000 UTC View PostThe latest CG has been finished, and features Doc and Yoshi's final love scene. I think JB did a wonderful job here and the scene looks appropriately romantic. There's another CG that goes along with this one in the works, to match the choices in the scene with Doc and Yoshi.
These images will be available in the 0.95 update, which I hope to have ready in December.

2019-11-10 20:14:29 +0000 UTC View PostHuman Cargo Version 0.90 is now available to Patrons, with an Itch release coming later tonight.
This version corrects a couple of bugs that were found in the 0.90 release, and I thought it better to fix them now rather than wait for the 0.95 update.
This update does include the final artwork for the Border Station title card, and it corrects a bug with one of the Nasir CGs not unlo...

Doc's story is now complete!
In addition to being able to romance Doc, this update features two new CG events: a second CG for Zed and Yoshi, and a new Nasir and Yoshi CG. (The Nasir/Yoshi CG has two different versions depending on if you choose the "kink" route or not.)

These new images will be available in the upcoming 0.90 update, along with Doc's route. I'm finalizing the update now and hope to have a bet...
2019-10-06 23:02:43 +0000 UTC View PostThis past week Human Cargo hit a big milestone. The game has been downloaded over 30,000 times now. I’m amazed and humbled by the success, and I thank all of you for giving the visual novel a try.
Human Cargo is set in the same universe as the Galactic Conspiracies books, so the visual novel and the books compliment each other very well. I thin...
2019-09-22 16:08:00 +0000 UTC View PostIn the next version of the game, there’s a new ending. If you make the “wrong” choices during the prologue and first chapter, you might end up a captive on Phestur’s ship.
Here’s a sneak peek of the CG artwork for that event 😊
The next version should also bring us Na...
2019-09-17 16:33:41 +0000 UTC View PostHuman Cargo Version 0.85 is now available to Patrons for early access!
This update features a lot of new background artwork and a couple of new cut scenes. We also have a new CG artwork for Zed and Yoshi's final scene, in addition to a new CG artwork for Razix and Yoshi's love scene.
I've also expanded Kol's storyline, mostly chapter 6, but also chapter 5 and 10.
Mark "Briar" Thorne (@BriarsThorne) created a sticker pack based on Human Cargo's Barakai freighter crew. He did an awesome job of capturing their personalities in the small images. And they're super cute to boot!
2019-08-26 02:49:49 +0000 UTC View PostThe next CG in progress features Zed and Yoshi. I hope this one will be ready for the 0.85 update, which I am aiming for a September release.
Here’s a progression from the sketch state, then line art, then coloring, then shading.
This CG will appear in the final Chapter 10 scene for Zed, and takes place in Zed’s quarters. The “camera” is looking into the ship from outside. 2019-08-22 03:34:41 +0000 UTC View Post
I've updated the teaser trailer for Human Cargo. Check it out!
2019-08-16 03:16:30 +0000 UTC View PostJB has completed the second CG for the Yoshi/Razix final scene. Depending on your choices, you just may see a different side of Razix!

Our next CG in progress features Zed and Yoshi and I hope to share progress on that soon.

JB has completed the first CG for the Yoshi/Razix final scene. There are a couple of variations on this CG and I've already added them to the game, so it will appear in the next build. He's also started work on another CG that's part of this scene (depending on your choices).
Speaking of the next build, I'm in the final stretch and am nearing completion of Chapter 10 of Nasir's path. I ho...

We are in the middle of working on Nasir's release and the background for the engineering deck has been completed by kjkjmulo. This is where Nasir can regularly be seen.
In the back, you can see the main computer core, and on the left you can see the window and bulkhead doors that lead to the ship's engine room.

Doc is a Sargan, known for their blue skin. He is the oldest member of the crew, and he's handsome and distinguished, and the art reflects that nicely.
