[Free][iOS][Android] Rocket Roll

Hi everybody!

We've developed and launched a small funny 2D game that we'd like to share with everybody now. Initially we've made it for fun, but now given lots of positive feedback we've got serious about it and developing it further - producing new content, new music, new worlds and levels, as well as new gameplay elements.

The video with the gameplay preview is below:

The game is about a Rocket which has to make it's way home through the 33 levels (and more coming soon) full of obstacles and cosmic junk left by humans. The sounds and scoring were specifically crafted by ourselves to underline the chilling space atmosphere.



Please try it out and let us know your thoughts!

The game is currently available for iOS-only, yet we have a production-ready build for Android, and will put it out in the next week or two.

PS. We were featured yesterday on ProductHunt, and if you like the game, any support is welcomed there

 

The game is now available also on Google Play for Android devices!

I downloaded the game and played it a bit. It's a lot of fun but feels a little repetitive after a while.

How long did it take you to make this?

 

Initial version was made pretty quickly, after the art was ready and sliced into the sheets (~4-5 days), we started coding and producing scoring, and after about 3 weeks of work (significant part of which was balancing and fine-tuning), we've made the initial release on the AppStore. But after that much more time was put into fixes, adjustments and the new update with new content and gameplay elements which will come out soon. It will contain new worlds with new themes and three times as more levels as it has right now. The game initially was made for fun and it was initially a spontaneous inspiration, not a commercial plan. But now it already has the latter also.

I really hope that the upcoming update will add more diversity into the gameplay so it won't feel that repetitive

 

when are you releasing the new update?

 

Given our current schedule, the update will be ready approx. in 2-3 weeks. Btw, we've got a request from players to allow the mute of music and sfx independently, so this is also coming soon for those who'd like to listen to something else or prefer silence.

 

We will have new worlds, each having it's own theme, and adding new gameplay elements - black holes, controllable drones, other types of missions and more to come. We are starting showing the upcoming stuff on our Instagram account: https://www.instagram.com/p/BiJqmLgFTSI/?taken-by=playrocketroll
