Heroes ，your wait is over!
Fighting Rogue V0.1 launches today on Steam for its inaugural playtest.
Core Gameplay
A wuxia roguelike blending:
🔹 Strategic Buildcrafting (Relics/Skill Synergy)
🔹 Auto-Battler Combat (Focus: Tactics over Twitch)
🔹 Async PvP (Test your builds globally)
Enhanced by deep faction identities, character-driven narratives, and visceral martial arts flair—all packed into a tight indie experience.
This marks our first public test, and we approach it with both excitement and anxiety. While the current build offers playable [Shop Phase] and [Combat Phase]—delivering core strategic buildcrafting fun—the strategy-deepening [Fate Dice system] remains in active prototyping.
To date, we’ve designed multiple promising prototypes for this system. We’ll gradually reveal these concepts via announcements, inviting you to collaborate with us in refining the most engaging and fun iteration.
Our first prototype—the dice-based design—was previewed across channels earlier this week. Revisit the details below if you’re curious!

Combat Philosophy
Though automated, battles deliver bone-crunching impact with:
Motion-captured wuxia animations
Character-unique fighting styles reflecting backstories
Dynamic Title Progression (e.g., "Novice" → "Arena Dominator")
"This tournament is but the first step on your wuxia journey. We apologize for any shortcomings—greater adventures await!"—The Fighting Rogue Team
What’s Next?
We’re iterating on Fate Dice and other roguelike systems—your feedback will shape them!
Fate Dice System Sneak Peek
(Design concept—subject to change)
Every relic bought in the Shop gains a random combat skill (Fate Trait) + activation requirement (dice combination needed).
View all gear requirements from your Armory, categorized as:
Specific dice faces (e.g., 1-3 pips)
Dice sum within a range
Exact dice sum
Other conditions...
Roll 5 dice—activate all gear whose conditions match the results! (No dice consumed!)
Use "Trick Cards" (earned every 3 rounds) to manipulate dice:
Drag dice onto cards for effects (e.g., reroll specific dice)
Limited uses per round
Activated skills apply to your next battle only—re-roll each fight!
Why we love it: Forces strategic trade-offs, deepens build diversity!
Help Us Shape This!
Fate Dice is experimental—we might tweak or replace it based on your feedback.
