Rue Valley LoopFlow Optimizer
Rue Valley loop calculator, strategy ledger, and fan-built command center.
Time only moves when you are talking, traveling, or wasting time inside Rue Valley (source: Mortismal Gaming review (YouTube, timestamp 16:40-17:55)). This Rue Valley tools project is maintained by fans who log every loop, watch every review, and convert findings into structured data so you can solve the 47-minute problem faster.
Content refreshes weekly as the community submits new intentions, statuses, and Movember story beats.

What is the Rue Valley LoopFlow Optimizer?
Rue Valley is an isometric narrative RPG with a therapy-centric time loop. Fans repeatedly faced the same math problems—whether to stay drunk to unlock Travis, burn Inspiration on Intentions, or sprint toward the anomaly. The LoopFlow Optimizer is a living spreadsheet rendered as a calculator. Every dataset (plans, statuses, NPC routines, Movember updates, platform links) comes from verifiable sources. When the community uploads a new discovery, it lands in docs/data and the interface refreshes immediately. Nothing is official; everything is transparent. Run it next to Rue Valley, the Steam hub, or your handwritten notes.
How to use this Rue Valley toolkit
- 1. Collect your loop data: record the current persona spread, temporary statuses, and intentions on deck.
- 2. Feed the calculator: pick your target goal (Travis, Anita, escape, Movember, etc.) and tag relevant statuses.
- 3. Review plans: the main timeline swaps to the best fit while the comparison grid shows alternates for cross-checks.
- 4. Scan the knowledge sections: open the Status & Personality palette or inspect JSON tables inline for context.
- 5. Iterate: Rue Valley is a loop, and so is this fan site—submit new findings and we update the datasets immediately.
Why this fan-made Rue Valley site exists
Official materials cover Rue Valley lore, but rarely compare stats or detail ripple effects of status combos. The community juggled dozens of spreadsheets, so we merged everything into one transparent toolkit. Nothing here is monetized—it is simply a Rue Valley tools project created by players who wanted better planning aids. Because we are independent, we avoid conflicts with the dev team while still crediting every source, highlighting Movember's messaging, and shipping updates whenever new math emerges. Expect rapid iteration.
Rue Valley FAQ
Is this an official Rue Valley site?
No. This hub is fan-operated and purely informational. We cite every source so you can verify the findings.
Where do the plans come from?
Each plan references gameplay footage and community write-ups. As soon as players document a new route, we encode it in the dataset.
Will the calculator ever control the game?
Never. It only consumes public information. You still play Rue Valley manually; we simply optimize the math.
How often is the content updated?
Whenever the community contributes. Use the submission form on Video Guides or drop issues in our backlog. New data appears immediately after merging.
