Hello World!

We're sending Spring greetings from Nuremberg, where we're continuing to work on PRG at full speed. We can’t name a precise release date yet, unfortunately. It is our first project and we’re ultimately still noobs at planning a project like this one. What we can promise you though, is that this is really the final stretch and will not spiral into an out of control development with a release years later than planned.

5 scenes + ending cutscenes are still on our to-do list before we move on to voice overs and playtesting (get in touch if you want to be part of that process). We've also finished designing the (promised) fourth ending, which we obviously can’t talk about...

What we're happy to talk about, though: Does anyone remember the stretch goal with the side quests for the three main characters? Well, we went through our old ideas, but one of them really sank its teeth in and just wouldn't let go. What if we combined the individual side quests into one cohesive quest line that demands real teamwork between the protagonists, while also shining a light on a part of the story that's been somewhat neglected so far? Deeper story = better gaming experience! At least that's what we keep telling ourselves and we hope you'll forgive us this small adjustment, which in return gives you a few new levels, fresh NPCs, and most importantly more time with the little guy down below…

Chunky the robo-squirrel is far more than just one of Liv's gadgets. Over the course of Act 2, he's being prepped for a major infiltration mission against Brunner Tech and in Act 3, he finally gets his own well-deserved moment in the spotlight. As clever and nimble as he is, though: he won't be able to pull it off entirely on his own. Pull what off exactly? We're obviously not telling. What we can show you, however, is one of the locations involved in his mission and it is, to put it mildly, not quite what you'd expect when infiltrating a tech giant

A dusty, slightly run-down arcade hall straight out of the entertainment dark ages (aka our/your childhoods, sniff). Whether Chunky is there to chase a high score or has entirely different plans, you'll most likely find out before the end of the year. Until then: enjoy your sunday, don't be a jerk, and keep playing point & click adventures!

Cheers,

Tilly & Matze

P.S. We are also currently putting together a brand new version of our demo, based on our latest and final code which will feature the final UI and….. German Voice Overs!

Wow, we never would have thought we wake up today and the kickstarter campaign is already at 70% of the funding goal! THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH for your support!

Hello everyone!

Today, we’d like to give you a sneak peek at some of the ways you can leave your mark on our game world when our Kickstarter campaign launches on March 26th. 26th?? Didn’t they plan to launch the Kickstarter on March 12th? Yes we did. But unfortunately the flu really wiped out our schedule for over a week and we still need to finish our video for the campaign. But we’re back on track!

Now lets move on to the rewards… Many of these rewards aren’t just part of the different pledge tiers - they can also be added as flexible add-ons. We’re sure there’s something for everyone who wants to be part of President Rocket Game!

Let’s start with one of the most exclusive (and unique) rewards: the statue of the Naked Golfer, located in the backroom of a lively punk bar in Frankenstein. How it got there remains a mystery, but we’d be happy to customize it with your preferred plaque and description text.

A little less exclusive but just as exciting is our "Find Your Name in the Game" reward. We’ve come up with several fun ways to include your name. You might spot it in the guestbook of a luxury hotel (where the mighty Autocratic Five once stayed) or hidden in the secret customer book of Prepper Peter’s shop. And these are just a couple of examples - there’s more to come!

It’s not just your name - you can also have your (pixelated) face immortalized in Frankenstein! There are several options: You could be a VIP in the stands at the Brunner Space Center during the rocket launch or even be part of #burnthemalive - and yes, that includes being seen in action, as you can see here.

And that’s just a taste of what we have planned! One thing all these rewards have in common: They allow you to leave a personal mark on the game while helping us bring it to life in the best possible way.

If you haven’t already, follow our campaign so you don’t miss the launch!
