Rad Rodgers

Rad Rodgers is a platforming adventure about Rad, a spirited boy who falls asleep after a long night of gaming and wakes to find his old console running again. A vortex pulls him into the television, where he becomes the star of a video game. His companion is Dusty, a good-hearted, foul-mouthed console who has become sentient; though his clock speed has faded, he makes up for it with experience and attitude.

Save the jungle

Rad and Dusty travel through dangerous stages in a decaying jungle infected by a fierce corruption. The unlikely pair must save the jungle’s inhabitants and restore the Elder Tree as guardian of the land.

Fight and explore

Dusty arms Rad with a range of weapons. The Bolt Blaster has unlimited ammunition and is easy to use, while the Phoenix Cannon fires a fiery bird that sets enemies ablaze as it flies past. You also use precision platforming to find hard-to-reach collectibles and secret rooms.

Only Dusty can enter the electrified Pixelverse, a dangerous region behind the game world where spacetime breaks down. When needed, he goes there to repair glitches in the running game world so the pair can continue their journey.

Two-player modes

The game includes couch co-op for two players, who can play together through the adventure, and Battle Mode, where friends fight against each other.

Radical Edition additions

This version adds new playable characters, abilities, minigames, an overworld and levels, along with new secrets, collectibles and unlockables. The soundtrack, composed by Andrew Hulshult, combines MIDI-inspired music with synthesizers and draws on retro-style gaming.
