"Disclaimer: Some game titles may crack you up!"
We didn’t dare add that line to Gamestonk Simulator’s short description—at least, not until we heard back from you, our beloved Stonkers.
From the very beginning, the game covers were something we wanted to stand out. They were risky, bold, and very close to our hearts. Revealing them to the early playtesters was nerve-wracking—but we had to do it!
And your feedback came back clear and loud: you loved them. Or, at the very least, you appreciated the effort we put into them. That gave us a huge confidence boost and helped carry us through the development of Gamestonk Simulator: Gone Rogue. Your suggestions for names and cover ideas on Discord were an even bigger lift—and still are. Thank you for that.
One thing we want to emphasize: the game covers are 100% handcrafted. No AI, no stock assets—just pixel-pushing love and hand-drawn nonsense. Because handmade art belongs in a world inspired by the golden age of physical game stores. It’s core to Gamestonk Simulator: Gone Rogue’s identity.
Now, this may sound strange—but we’re actually retiring a few of the covers.
Why, you ask? Well… precisely because they’re such a defining part of the game. If we’re going to stand out with our covers, then we owe it to ourselves—and to you—to push even harder. We think we can do better. So we’re replacing a few of them with new ones, and we’re excited to show you what’s next.
The full reveal of the swapped-out covers and their replacements will go live with Early Access.
Thank you for being part of the beginning—and for co-producing this wonderfully weird journey with us.
Cordially,
The Gamestonk Simulator: Gone Rogue Team
