Rogue Star Rescue Announces Kickstarter - Roguelike Tower Defense Game Coming To All Major Consoles In 2020
/ Stephen CraneWindsor developer Chute Apps have released a kickstarter for their roguelike tower defense game - Rogue Star Rescue. The game was released on Steam in Early Access earlier this year, and they are looking to Kickstarter to finish development.
It's time to bring roguelikes to the next level! Rogue Star Rescue is a unique mix of bullet hell roguelike and tower defense games. We're adding strong strategy elements to the all-out insanity of bullet hell shooters. The action is smooth, the gameplay is challenging, the story is complex and nonlinear. It's a game you'll get sucked into, and will end up spending months exploring the multiple intricacies and outcomes. Keeping the game fun well past the 50-hour mark is our core design focus.
The game is planned for full release June 2020 on PC, and consoles in Fall of 2020. You can check out the Kickstarter here, where $20 dollars will get you a steam copy.
