Publisher Headcannon and developer dconn have announced a release date for RUBATO, their meta 2D collect-a-thon platformer game.
RUBATO is set to launch for Windows PC (via Steam), Nintendo Switch, and PS5 on March 20th. A playable demo is available on Steam.
Here’s a rundown on the game, plus a new trailer:
RUBATO, an experimental, 2D physics-based take on the collect-a-thon genre!
The year is 12,012. Multiquadrillionaire monopoly “GSSAI CO.” has been in power of the universe for centuries after a world-ending bioweapon was unleashed onto the masses. And now? The solar system has been destroyed by unknown celestial forces. A weapons development program run by the Earth subsidiary of “GSSAI CO.” is fast progressing. And the world’s denizens are disappearing.
That is until one man screws up a game of pool.
