What just happened?
Against all odds, STREET DOG LEGEND has sold over 100 copies! We are stunned, to say the least. We weren't even sure if we'd sell TEN! You see, we're kind of bad at this "marketing" thing that is meant to make "products" "successful."
Seriously though, thank you to everyone who has played, left a kind review, and has dogged like no one dogged before. It means so much :D

We developed the game in 3 months and, although we had tons of ideas left, didn't want to burn ourselves out with something no one would ever play. As it turns out... lots of people are playing - silly us!
What's Next?
So now, I'm excited to say that STREET DOG LEGEND will continue receiving updates for the foreseeable future. The first of which will come in a few weeks, update 1.1! Here's a little preview:
Explore Mode
The biggest feature of 1.1 will be an "Explore" option added to the map, with 5 unique spots to visit in New Frankfurt!
The Bistro
The Bistro will feature 2 drinks that modify work days (great for speedrunners!) and 4 rotating "regulars" you may recognize from your work days. Strike up a conversation with them, and get to know them better the more you talk to them.
The Bodega
The Bodega has 4 slots of rotating items, all of which can modify your work day. Squirt sauces faster, increase customer patience, and earn more money! It's the perfect way to start the morning before doggin. Plus, the shopkeeper might have some interesting things to say.
The Casino
We heard you - you want to GAMBLE! Soon, your biggest financial dreams will be possible. The Casino features two games, Blackjack and Slots. Surely this is a fine way to spend your hard earned cash.
The Exchange
The New Frankfurt Stock Exchange is open for business! Invest in leading hot dog industries and strengthen your portfolio for maximum gains (whatever that means).
The Gym
At the Gym, you can play 3 unique minigames to strengthen Tony's energy. Not only can you compete for high scores, but you can "level up" your ability to explore more spots per day!
What else?
Wow, you want more? Okay...
While we have lots planned, we are prioritizing "Explore" mode because we have noticed some players earning TONS of cash. Many of these new locations give you the opportunity to dump all that cash, but they also give you the opportunity to earn WAY more than is reasonable in a typical playthrough.
To compensate, we'll be adding a cosmetics magazine that lets you re-decorate / re-stylize your apartment. These upgrades will be expensive and purely optional. We'll have more to share on this at a later date.
What now?
Keep an eye out for more updates! The full 1.1 release should be coming in July, and there's more after that - including a working TV and even some more animal friends. If you're interested in beta testing 1.1, join our discord in the link above, we'll be sharing the build soon :)
Um... anything else?
Yes!
Big shoutout to KinzyKenzie for being the first to collect every achievement the game has to offer, and for being the first to speedrun multiple categories of the game. Not only did she set up the speedrun page, but she currently holds the world record in most categories. That's freaking awesome!
That's all for now. Dog on, friends!
