Rex Rocket

Rex Rocket is a 2D platformer set aboard the S.S. Montana, a starship transporting scientists through the distant-future universe. You play as former war hero Captain Rexford or Rexanna “Rocket” Rexington. When bio-engineered Terra-Oozlings escape during the crew’s cryo-sleep and cause the ship’s main AI to go rogue, you must stop the AI, rescue the crew and regain control of the ship.

Explore the S.S. Montana

The ship contains over 100 handcrafted levels connected across an expansive network of routes. You can explore alternate paths to find a better way forward, reach collectibles or take a more dangerous route. Puzzles, enemies, hazards and bosses fill the levels, while Info Nodes reveal details about the story, characters, weapons and enemies.

Platform and fight

You jump, shoot and wall-jump, and can fire your laser downward to get an aerial boost. Solving platforming puzzles and defeating bosses earns powerful weapons and useful upgrades. The challenges include giant flamethrower machines, swarms of Oozling-possessed crew members and the berserk AI, which keeps devising ways to attack you.

Characters and presentation

Choose Rexford or Rexanna as your hero. The adventure features hand-made pixel art, hundreds of characters, light-hearted humor and quirky characters. Its retro sound effects accompany an original chiptune soundtrack by Saskrotch.
