Take Off The Rocket

Just get to the rocket. How hard can it be?

Take Off The Rocket is a 2D pixel-art precision platformer in the spirit of Super Meat Boy and Level Devil. The goal of every level is simple: reach the rocket and launch. The levels have other plans. Saws, spikes, lasers, fake walls and platforms that vanish the moment you trust them are all waiting for you.

Dying is part of the game

Every death leaves blood behind and a death sign showing what got you
Ghost replays of your previous attempts run alongside you
Watch the death meter: die too often, too quickly, and Death catches you, wiping your run and sending you back to the main menu

From Earth to the Moon

60 levels plus a final level: 30 on Earth and 30 in the Moon World
On the Moon: low gravity, meteor showers, gas vents, gravity zones, oxygen to manage, black holes, UFOs and landers that aren't what they seem
Pendulums, catapults, rotators, moving platforms, wormholes, teleports and access cards

Your astronaut, your style

Catch roaming Star Pods and spend them in the Hangar on Cargo Drops
Unlock astronaut skins, rocket designs, rocket fires, flags and space collectibles
Pick a voice for your astronaut, who will happily comment on your death streaks
