Streets of Rogue is a rogue-lite about player choice, freedom, and anarchic fun. The game takes inspiration from fast-paced top-down rogue-lites like Binding of Isaac and Nuclear Throne, and adds free-form, experimentation-driven, emergent gameplay elements of RPGs like Deus Ex. Rather than taking place in a dungeon, the game is set in a functioning, procedurally generated city, where complex AI informs denizens from all walks of life, who are just trying to get by in their daily activities. In order to progress, the player will need to accomplish specific mission goals in any way they see fit through use of their special character traits, items, and the environment. Will you play as a soldier who shoots first and asks questions later? A stealthy scientist who uses chloroform and tranquilizer darts to silently take down the opposition? A genial bartender who can talk his way past the most intimidating of guards? Or how about a hyper-intelligent gorilla, rescuing other caged gorillas to form a small mobilized gorilla army?

- Play the game YOUR way! Don't want to kill anybody? That's cool! Want to hack computers? Got ya covered!
- Random world generation and TOTALLY EXTREME gameplay variety means you can play for 600 hours and not get bored! Seriously though, go outside!!!
- Super-advanced artificial intelligence that won't put up with your crap! Outsmart these virtual humans and feel superior to your computer!
- Play as over 40 types of characters (in the final version)! Bartender, scientist, hacker, gorilla -- hey, your job is probably in there too!
- Stupidly huge number of items (in the final version)! Shrink rays, hypnotizing devices, boomboxes, bear traps, food processors.. Oh, and guns too.
- 2-Player cooperative mode lets you brutalize goons AND loneliness!
- Lead a gang, free slaves, drink beer, gib ghosts, become a vampire, shrink people and stomp on them. The most insanely varied game ever made.

played the alpha for a bit last year.
very interesting gameplay and unique characters that totally change how you play.
had quite a bit of content in the free alpha already too.
this one is quite special. give it a shot if you're intrigued.
must be an absolute blast in multiplayer but i haven't tried that yet.

Yeah that’s right, BETA. After 70 “alpha” releases, I’m finally calling this thing a beta. To be honest, I probably should have done that a few builds ago, since the game has been feature-complete for 1.0 for awhile
Bought it, yeah, it actually does have a very slight humorous Deus Ex feel to it.
I think the execution of it is extremely well done, the combat is simplistic yet fun, the variety of characters and items is well thought out in its simplicity.
What i really don't understand is if the game ever saves. I finished the slums and 2 other levels after slums (whatever that section is called). It restarts from first map if you die.
I've never been able to use "resume save".. I know it's a rogue game so it's to be expected that you can't save anywhere but i don't understand when the "resume save" is even supposed to work... quitting the game, doesn't save either, which these games usually do.
