About This Game

Rocket Escape is an innovative 2D platformer about rocket jumping your way to the goal. Despite being around in gaming for a long time, rocket jumping is usually relegated to a side mechanic. However, we believed that rocket jumping could be so much more. Featuring mechanics such as slow motion/rocket time, speedrunning timers, black hole rockets, and more, Rocket Escape is an expansion on the time-tested concept of rocket jumping. We at Compact Square Studios have been working on Rocket Escape as a passion project over the last few years, and we are excited to be able to release the game on Steam and share it with the world.

We look forward to seeing how you approach and enjoy the game!

Rocket Escape is a game that takes a lot from Portal. It's short, it's fun, and it's not something that's really been done before. For just a few bucks, I'd say it's a great buy.

This is a great game for the cost, even though it is short, it is a really fun game that you can't stop until you've finished. The amount of satisfaction you get from absolutely nailing the rocket timing is limitless every time I do it. My satisfaction is immeasurable and my day is mended.

Rocket escape was a really fun short game with some challenging puzzles, cool platforming mechanics, and fun Easter eggs. There was a lot of detail put into the game and I found no holes within everything that the game presented, making it clear that the developers put a lot of work and effort into their project. Would recommend as a short play for people who like platform games.

Terrible, terrible execution of an otherwise good concept. I thought sure, the game looks very shoddy but the gameplay would be worth it? Nope, it's just as awful as it looks. So here I am trying to rocketjump vertically along a wall. I jump up and fire a rocket. Observe where [url=https://i.imgur.com/pNJnJWH.png]the rocket actually spawns[/url] when I fire it. Wayyy off the rocket launcher! Now watch where [url=https://i.imgur.com/q8eHDK5.png]the rocket explodes[/url] upon "contact". Wayyy off any actual surface! What the hell? It is INCREDIBLY inconsistent and annoying, and it kills any potential skill ceiling or just fun in this game. Even worse! Let's simply fire a rocket down at our feet. How wrong could that go? Well, observe where [url=https://i.imgur.com/4ZYdXVI.png]such explosion occurs[/url] exactly. ABOVE our feet. Which means that simply firing a rocket downward results in zero vertical momentum! In fact, even if you jump and fire too early your character can still ignore...
