Hi,
the entire Tiny Rogues dev team is super hard at work right now, and while I don't treat my team to the joys of time-crunching (yet), I myself have been hyper fixated, putting in more hours than usual, even on the weekends to be able to ship something playable at the end of November for you all. (I don't know yet if it's gonna be the actual update or a closed beta or an open beta.)
We are in a phase right now where we are finally finishing up all the new content. It's all already really cool already but we will also want to put some serious effort into polishing everything. 
Soon enough the game will be at a point where at any point you can expect a blog that says "Yep, the update is done, it's going to release in X days from now!".
Soon after that I hope to also announce a serious roadmap for the path to 1.0!
For now though, no real new dev blog, sorry! Hopefully around mid November.
I hope the good news that we are literally SO close to the wait time being over is good enough for now. 
Wish us luck!
