Rocketman is about to be released. New screens premiere

Daniel Tear continues working on the development of Rocketman , an action-adventure platform game that will soon be released for our first-generation MSX.

I remember a while back, at a RU in Barcelona, I had the chance to try out a preliminary version of the game, and I felt really good about it . Since then, Daniel hasn't stopped adding more details that promise to make Rocketman an even better game.

The story of Rocketman puts us in the role of an astronaut who has entered a wormhole and, without knowing how, ends up lost on different strange planets where he must recover the pieces of his rocket to return home. The game is divided into five completely distinct worlds, each divided into nine stages. It's a terrible coincidence that each of the pieces we need is guarded by an alien boss, who we must take good care of , because he won't just hand them over.

Hidden in the game is a boom box (I'm sure those of you with gray hair like me know what it is) from which you can listen to all the music in the game. But to use it, you must unlock it during the adventure.

There are also several shops scattered around the setting where our character can, in addition to buying useful items for the adventure, obtain a password with which to continue from that specific point in a subsequent game or also, if we want, we can play our money (minerals in the game) with rock, paper, scissors with Doki, a very friendly little creature.

Rocketman will be available in both English and Spanish and is in its final stages of development , with only a few small details left to finish before it's ready.

I'll be keeping an eye out for the release of this Rocketman because its gameplay captivated me at the time. It has very colorful and detailed graphics, which you can see in the following screenshots that Daniel shared with us for the first time:
