A downloadable game for Windows and Linux

What Is Rocket Rise?

Rocket Rise is story driven 2d platformer that limits you to just rocket jumping as you climb the mountain, avoid the  inhabitants of the mountain, and discover who you are and why you're here.

How To Play

The strength of your rocket jump depends on the distance from your cursor to the player. Your character will be propulsed in the opposite direction of your mouse cursor. Your goal make it to the top.

Custom Maps
Custom maps are possible now, open `FreeClimb.tmx` in Tiled then you can edit it with your custom lighting, spawnpoint, Collisions, etc. After Saving when you reopen the game and play freeclimb it will be replaced with the new maps. You can open otherpeoples custom maps by replacing `FreeClimb.tmx` with the custom map.
