• Wavey The Rocket is out now! - 7 May 2020

  Well HERE WE ARE! We can’t believe these words are finally being said, but Wavey The Rocket is now available on Steam! It’s been a super long road to get here, from Game Jam ideas to working remotely on each individual part of the game, the teams have been hard at work for a long time and now it’s available for everyone! It’s quite crazy to see a buy button on Steam for it! There’s 15% off for one week (7th May to 14th May) as a little incentive for you to pick it up and check it out! If you do, please let us know on Twitter or Facebook and please leave a review in Steam, it really helps us reach more people who may not know about our little sentient Rocket! We’ll be coming back here a lot in the coming months so should you find a pesky bug, please let us know and we’ll do our best to squash it, we’re only a small team and sometimes they’re so small they slip our extremely tight net! Le…

• Dev Diary 3 - Old idea, New IP! - 30 April 2020

  Hello Wavey Fans! I’m Danny, the artist at UpperRoom Games, and to start this post off I’d like to sing (digitally) some words at you, to get you in the mood for what’s to come. It goes like this; “If I could turn back time” and a bit of it goes “If I could reach for the stars”. It’s a Cher song, and this post is all going to be about taking a look in the past at old Wavey assets, and how they look now! So we’ll start with the star of the show, Wavey himself! Wavey has always been a rocket, so when we started making the game, we knew pretty much how we wanted him to look. Here’s a throwback to some of the first designs behind the soda loving rocket: And here he is now, all grown up: Naturally over the course of time we’ve been working on the game, we’ve adjusted, changed, removed and added all sorts to our levels too, here’s a level we worked on when we were protyping: And here’s that v…

• You Play, We Pay! A special announcement from UpperRoom Games and War Child UK - 3 April 2020

  Hello everyone 🚀 We come here today with a very special announcement! We’re super proud and humbled to reveal that today, we’ve partnered with War Child UK for a very special charity event, that begins the MINUTE someone pushes the “release my game” button on Steam! Sadly you can’t see that button, it’s a special hidden button for us, but we promise it’s huge and it’s green! War Child UK support the world’s most vulnerable children who have been caught up in conflict, it’s a wonderful charity, and here’s how you can help! It’s simple, you play, we pay! That’s it! Okay here’s a bit more of an in-depth list as there are a couple of rules; - Click the lovely Wavey The Rocket wishlist button on Steam - When the game comes out, Steam will say “Hey this cool game is out!” - Whip over to the store when that happens, grab the game, but don’t boot it up yet! - Head over to Twitch, YouTube or Mi…

• Dev Diary 2 - Makin' Moves! - 5 March 2020

  Hello, I’m Rob, the programmer at UpperRoom Games, and today we're going to dive into exactly how Wavey moves in our debut release as an indie studio, Wavey The Rocket! With Wavey we set out to make a platformer unlike any other. When looking at some of our favourite characters from the past, such as Crash Bandicoot, Sonic and Rayman, they all presented a similar core puzzle; how do I use run and jump to get through the level? While trying to come away from this quintessential platformer concept, we had an idea to move a character along a waveform that the player could shape. After some experimentation we arrived at a sine wave based movement that allows Wavey to weave through obstacles in a skillful and unique way! This works through a combination of two motions; a vertical wave motion and a horizontal linear motion. The horizontal motion takes a set speed and maintains it. The player…

• Behind The Scenes Dev Diary 1! - 17 February 2020

  Hello, I’m Rob, the programmer from UpperRoom Games, and I’m here to pull the curtain back a little on how we make levels in Wavey The Rocket, a game we’ve been making for a few years now. To start, we decide which of the themes we want to make our new level in, so for this, I’m going to show you the Tombs theme and make a super short segment of a level. A theme in Wavey will dictate the obstacles used as well as the difficulty. We start the level by copying from a level template that contains the generic start and end for all levels. Usually Wavey spawns from a portal in a safe space at the far left of the level and travels right toward to finish. We can quickly at this point make the level feel a bit more like our target theme by modifying the lighting and putting in a temporary background. Custom backgrounds are added at the end. Now we’re “in” the level, we need some obstacles for W…
