Press release:
Leicester, UK – 5th December 2024.
The Leicester-based (the UK) indie games publisher Kasedo Games and London-based (the UK) indie games developer Beard Envy, are today super happy and excited to announce that their sci-fi roguelite spaceship repair sim “Uncle Chop’s Rocket Shop”, is now available for PC (via Steam) and consoles (PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch) via digital stores.
This one-of-a-kind, fast-paced “fix-’em-up” invites players to embrace chaos as Wilbur, a vest-wearing, fox-headed mechanic tasked with repairing ships of all shapes and sizes for a cast of eccentric customers…of all shapes and sizes.
Inspired by the humour and aesthetics of Adventure Time and Rick & Morty, the game combines ultra-tactile mechanics with a high-stakes roguelite gameplay loop. The result? A truly unique and outlandish experience where each workday presents new and unexpected challenges.
Players will need to diagnose and repair faults in the modules of procedurally generated spaceships using brand-specific manuals acquired along the way – all to keep up with the ever-rising R.E.N.T payments to Wilbur’s corporate overlord, Uncle Chop. For those who prefer a more relaxed pace, the ‘Focused Fixing’ mode offers an alternative challenge without the pressure of a ticking clock of doom.
In addition to the base game, a Deluxe Edition is now also available. This edition includes the digital original soundtrack, a digital artbook, and a “Drunk Wilbur” skin. Both editions are offered at a 10% launch discount.
The outrageous roguelite spaceship repair simulator Uncle Chop’s Rocket Shop is out now on Windows PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch.
