Just found this and it's awesome. Only a few minutes into it and hoping the demo comes to a good ending. Last update is 2019, but this would be wonderful to see it finished.
Thank you! I really appreciate your comment. Unfortunately at this time I'm working on another project, but Junkdogs still holds a special place in my heart and I would love to return to that world again someday in the future!
Please tell me you plan on continuing this game till its fully developed? I loved the mix of puzzles and battles in the game demo and would be willing to purchase when it's complete.
Thank you! Unfortunately I can't say if/when this game will be finished. It is near and dear to my heart but a lot of other things got in the way along the process. I really appreciate you being a fan though, I would love to continue it for people like you, some day!
I'm trapped in the escape room and I'm … not sure what to do? Every object I've interacted with so far has been an object I can't use? I'm not sure what to do to get out?
I just uploaded a minor update to the extended demo release:
-Fixed graphical error in Warehouse on Callisto -Fixed Battle AI bug: Bad code lead to a switch not triggering and the enemy units eventually locking up in battle, unable to take any actions except for End Turn. If you are experiencing this problem then you need to redownload the game (highly recommended for optimal experience). Also tweaked the AI a bit to make them more dynamic and responsive in battle.
A sci-fi space-faring old school RPG with turn-based spaceship battles and an intriguing story, complete with lovable rogue characters? Where do I sign up?!
Honestly, I loved every second of this. The layout of it all, the puzzle solving aspect, the tough battle system (I struggled with it but it was so rewarding to win!), everything! I really can't wait to get another taster of this and the full game when it's done.
Keep up the awesome work, this is looking great =)
Hey MikeyBlighe! Thank you so much for the wonderful review! Watching your play-through of Junkdogs was a great joy! It was really funny and entertaining. I'm currently working on the next part of the game which is more of an extended version of the demo, I'll be sure to let you know when it's available.
BerryItch! Thank you so much for playing! I read your feedback you left in the description for the video and I want you to know I will definitely take your thoughts into consideration as I continue to develop Junkdogs. I agree that the battle does feel like a lot of waiting. I'll be sure to make some adjustments to make it all flow better.
P.S.: could you send me a link to the image your sister created for the cover art? Would definitely like to have a copy of it, and I would also love to give a shout out to your sister the artist as well if you could provide any links to her social media. Thanks again!!
Finally had time to get around to this once I had free time, and boy let me tell you - it's worth it. There's a lot of charm and potential with this, with all the things that makes a game great. I'm honestly hoping to see more of this game in the future and even a full version!

Thanks for the incredibly detailed and extensive review. I just want you to know that I will definitely be taking your thoughts into consideration as I continue to develop Junkdogs. I appreciate your support!
Bringing back the old snes jrpg feels on me! I love the story that has been built up in my play through of your game! The dynamic tone is set well. I also thought the sprite modeling was wonderful. What takes Junkdogs over the top is the BGM. I noticed sounds and, sights that pay ode to other jrpgs such as, the sound of the doors like chrono trigger and, the save points looking like final fantasy. The demo was amazing can't wait for the full release.

Hi Shireen. Thanks for playing! I really appreciate it. I think most of the problem with the volume is that the Freighter music is set way too loud, which is something I have to fix. But I'm glad you like the game :)
Thanks! Oh alright but... I'm sure it's me to be honest, I always have issues getting the right game volume right - I'll make sure to change it next video :)
No problem Shireen. Thanks again for playing. If you haven't already, please leave a rating for Junkdogs, to help increase our chances of advancing in the contest.
Thanks for sending this game my way, it was a lot of fun to play. You really did a good job here, the setting was very convincing (which is difficult using RPG maker in my opinion), the audio was very well done, Iove the tracks, and you even have an interesting story with an unexpected twist. Hopefully my feedback in the video is helpful. Keep up the good work! -Elit3hoboguy

Hello! There is a box you can push to reveal a vent on the ground that you can interact with. Try that!
Ah that stupid box! I think I ran into it 5 or 6 times but it finally invoked the dialogue. Weird!
Currently trying to figure out how to fix the wires in the warehouse…
Everything you need is in the warehouse. Just try to interact with everything until you find what you need.
Thanks! I will try again!
I got it! I look forward to further development.
Design reminds me of Stardew Valley https://rawg.io/games/stardew-valley. Looking very good. I played it for an hour, liked it!
Played for about a half hour: really great game. I did encounter an error on my Mac however when I tried to toggle always dash on.

When is the full game going to be released? Or is this the complete game...?
The game is actively in development, and we're aiming for a 2019 release. A new extended demo will be released very soon!
Cool, I can't wait to play the new demo! :)
Hey Shireen, just wanted to let you know the extended demo has been released!

I'm really enjoying this game so far and I love the soundtrack so much, great work! Here is my first walkthrough video (sorry about the volume...):
