Update to 2025.11.4 & Steam Release On The Way!

Hey dungeon rats and CRT gremlins — Ruinwright just leveled up.

Here’s what’s new:

🧾 Flexible Exports

You can now export your maps as PNG, JPG, or JSON.

Use this to:

• Build quick 3D blockouts in engines like Unity or Godot

• Print those suckers out using any graphics program!

• Kick off prototypes without redrawing your maps

Ruinwright still feels like graph paper—but now it plugs into your dev pipeline.

🕸️ Lines! (Beyond the Grid)

Not every game sticks to neat squares.

Lines lets you:

• Draw lines between rooms for irregular layouts

• Map text adventures, Sierra-style games, and non-grid worlds

• Scale lines to highlight main paths, side routes, or odd connections using the wheel mouse

If you’ve ever drawn boxes and arrows in a notebook to follow a weird game, this will feel familiar—just upgraded.

⌨️ Quick Keys & Scroll QOL

Mapping should be fast and responsive.

In v4 you can:

• Use the numpad to flip tiles while you map

• Use the mouse scroll wheel along with the Shift key to change tiles without stopping

Less clicking around, more mapping.

📍 Notes on the Map

Room nodes still handle detailed notes (puzzles, keys, NPCs, etc.), but now you can also:

• Drop quick notes directly on the map

• Scale those notes to be subtle or bold using the wheel mouse

• Combine them with room-node notes for extra clarity

Warnings, hints, routes, reminders—right where you need them.

🐛 Bug Fixes & Polish

v2025.11.4 also includes:

• Various small bug fixes

• Smoother behavior in tools and modes

• A general pass to make Ruinwright feel more stable and reliable

🟢 Steam Release: November 26th, 2025

We’re launching officially on Steam on November 26th, 2025.

As always, every purchase here on itch.io gets you a key over there in Steam Land.

Until then:
Boot up a classic, open Ruinwright, and map like it’s 1989. 🧙‍♂️📊
