INTRODUCING RUBATO.

RUBATO Trailer.

RUBATO is an experimental, 2D physics-based take on the collect-a-thon genre. The game is set for an independently published PC release in 2025, with console porting and publishing being handled by Headcannon (Sonic Mania Plus, Pier Pressure).

The game is being developed by mostly one person, with help from a small team of artists.

Look at all that "Game"!

Use your tongue to lick enemies and objects to make your way through metroidvania-like areas, whilst collecting "Planet Bits" to help fix the solar system! Journey through 5 uniquely themed areas ranging from a huge sprawling bakery to the world's most poorly planned city.

The game has a strange, funny plot with a deep focus on humour and character writing. It gets silly. It gets serious.

Around 8 hours long. 12-15 hours long if you're new to action games and platformers. Potentially 500,000+ hours if you take an hour break every time you blink.

The game also houses a deep ancient evil that you ABSOLUTELY have to promise to not release into the mortal realm when you play the game.

Oh. I guess it escaped. Great.
