Did you know that RPG in a Box is around 10 years old? Its first public release, v0.0.1, was on June 6th, 2015! I recently downloaded my data archive from the blue bird site, and I thought that could provide a fun opportunity to go back and share some random older posts over the coming months to celebrate.
A Brief History of RPG in a Box
Wow, check out this preview trailer for the RPG in a Box v0.0.2 Alpha from way back in 2015! It's hard to believe how far it's come. Anyone remember when it looked like this?
In February of 2016 I released the first example game for RPG in a Box! It's still available over on IndieDB if you want to give it a try. I did just now, and wow, it feels so old and basic!

Around 9 years ago, v0.1-alpha arrived! The release trailer really shows just how far RPG in a Box has come since then!
My first ever #screenshotsaturday from June 2016. To be fully transparent, back then I was so far from believing in the potential of RPG in a Box and believing in myself. In a way, RPG in a Box's growth, evolution, and breaking out of its former limitations is a reflection of my own personal growth.
