Latest Steam announcements
- Last Day of Launch Week 20%-off Sale! - 7 April 2022
Rotund Rebound's launch week is coming to a close, meaning it's the last day to grab it with the 20% launch discount! It won't go that low again for a while, so hop on it! ;)
- Rotund Rebound Has Finally Released! - 2 April 2022
Well, today's yesterday was the day. Rotund Rebound has officially launched! A storm knocked our internet out for all of yesterday (because life) When we decided to return to game development in 2017, we wanted to make a grand title with no corners cut, something worthy of standing alongside other famous and beloved titles. As we said in our return post, "Our prime interest as developers has always been to create the kind of game we can passionately pour our hearts, souls, blood, sweat and tears into and then confidently inform even the harshest critic that they need to experience it." Rotund Rebound has become that title. It's taken a combined 15,000+ hours from the two of us and given more than a few gray hairs in return, but we're very proud of this game. Sadly, throughout this journey we have learned that our niche genre and many of what we consider the game's strongest features, co…
- Release At Last for Rotund Rebound! - 22 March 2022
Once again it's been a while, but at last the big day is nearly here! After months of final testing, tweaking, localizations, and storefront preparations, we're excited to announce that Rotund Rebound is releasing April 1st! No fooling! Check out the new trailer! https://youtu.be/vWtkMBoqF_E We'd hoped we might manage a March 12th release in alignment with Dahku's 10th anniversary (time flies!) but big games take big time to do things properly. Regardless, after 4+ years it feels great to finally be bringing an end to our epic adventure of development, knowing players can soon begin their own epic adventures with the game! The price is $19.99, but launch week buyers get a 20% discount. :) Please look forward to it!
- Still Seeking Beta Testers - 16 November 2021
Last update we mentioned that Rotund Rebound was in the beta testing phase, giving players the chance to try it out at 99% completion. This has gone really well! In the past 10 weeks or so we've made so many cool tweaks, added some surprising new features and content, and of course squashed plenty of pesky bugs. This game just gets better by the day! https://www.dahku.com/pics/blog/2021-11-16cauldrons.gif The latest beta update finally squared away the lingering changes we'd been on the fence about, and the beta testing phase is now winding down. However, we'd like to get just a few more players on board to give the tweaked game a going over with totally fresh eyes. What's Involved? We can learn a lot about how the game's working for people just by watching them play. All beta testers have to do is play the game as they naturally would for as long as they care to, and record it for us t…
- New Demo At Next Fest - 30 September 2021
It's been a long time since our last public update (psst, Discord gets weekly reports!), but we've been very hard at work! Rotund Rebound is near enough to completion that it's in the hands of external beta testers now, and we're confident in our Q1 2022 release schedule. We also may launch on PC first with consoles soon to follow, but we'll see. With this comes the exciting occasion of Steam Next Fest (Oct 1-7), in which Rotund Rebound is participating with a shiny new demo! And if you're interested in beta testing the full game yourself, letting us know what you think of the demo is a great way to be considered for the next wave of testers. At any rate we hope you'll check it out and enjoy it!
- Let's Talk About Rebound - 7 June 2021
When we announced last October that we were gonna set Rotund Rebound aside to make Rotund Takeoff first, we apologized for the delay and hoped it wouldn't be too terrible a wait. Well, it was. RT development took longer than anticipated, which forced us from a 2020 to 2021 release window, and then porting to Nintendo Switch was a long struggle of unforeseen technical issues. Anyway, though it's taken waaay longer than expected, Rebound is once again our prime focus. So let's talk about where the project stands. First off, RR wasn't entirely dormant throughout the RT period. However, the full process of creating, launching, and watching people play RT, taught us a lot and inspired us to reevaluate RR. As a result, whatever bits of forward progress we'd made in those months were offset by the many tweaks and new additions that resulted. https://www.dahku.com/pics/blog/2021-06-07meghan.png…
- Sequel Delayed For Prequel - 2 October 2020
Our last announcement fell under the heading of cross promotion, so didn't show up on the main store page. In case you missed it, we wanted to let you know that Rotund Rebound is delayed, with a tentative release of 2021 Q2. The reason behind the delay is that we're going to be releasing Rotund Takeoff first, a remake of Rotund Rebound's prequel. Hop on over to its page if you'd like to give it a look.
- Announcing Rotund Takeoff! - 1 October 2020
As you may know, Rotund Rebound is a sequel to Chubbins (2014, Wii U). Since beginning Rotund Rebound's development, we knew we wanted to do a remake of Chubbins in the new style, new engine, and generally bring it up to modern Rotund-series standards. And for a myriad of reasons (starting with the fact that Chubbins is no longer available on the eShop), we've decided to do so now rather than later. Rotund Rebound is unfortunately delayed again as a result (now tentatively 2021 Q2), but the good news is that the Chubbins remake, titled Rotund Takeoff, has been in intense development for awhile now and is aiming to release before year's end! Check out the trailer now, or visit its Steam page for the full rundown! If you're a fan of the original, please be assured that even as we've made big upgrades and style changes, we've taken great care to remain faithful where possible. You'll be ab…
- Status Update, And A Dream Come True - 9 July 2020
As an artistically inclined teen in the 90's, I was always dreaming up my own video game ideas and drawing characters and settings for them. When Mario Kart 64 came along, and other game series did their best to clone it, I'm sure I wasn't the only nerd to envision my own characters taking to the track in high speed 3D glory. 20+ years later, that dream has come true! Sort of. https://www.dahku.com/pics/blog/2020-07-09kartartwork.jpg Chubbit was not one of those old characters, and we have not made a kart racing game, but an old piece of fan art from the Miiverse days put the idea in our heads, and Rotund Rebound's mini-games seemed like the perfect place to bring the concept to life. https://www.dahku.com/pics/blog/chubbins-miiverse1.png We weren't sure exactly what sort of racing mini-game to make at first. Then we hit on the idea of a Mode 7 inspired approach, and got really excited…
- Q&A Chat With the Devs On Discord - 5 June 2020
Rotund Rebound will be publicly playable for the first time ever in The Steam Game Festival, with a demo available only for the duration, June 16th - 22nd. As part of the event, we hope you'll stop by Discord to talk about the game and ask any questions you may have. https://discord.gg/Dt9rezQ We'll have a channel opened specially for the event on June 17th, but we also invite you to stick around for access to all channels and talking with fellow fans about the demo and sharing your progress. We also have a free game available exclusively to our Discord members!
- Join Our Discord, Get Rotund Zero Free! - 4 June 2020
https://www.dahku.com/pics/blog/2020-06-01boxart.jpg Today begins an exciting new chapter for Rotund Rebound. We've got several big announcements to cover, so let's jump into it! Going Official With New Media! Things are fast picking up for Rotund Rebound, and in that spirit we've released a new announcement trailer! Technically the game was softly announced in 2018 and has had an "early teaser" trailer for about a year, but we're well past that stage. Time to put our best foot forward with official gameplay footage! Other new media includes that snazzy box art at the top of this post and refreshed screenshots. You can now find those and everything Rotund Rebound at rotundrebound.com, a sleek new hub for the game. Rotund Rebound Is On Discord! For Rotund Rebound we'd really like to encourage a fun and helpful community centered around friendly competition, video sharing and strat discus…
- Rotund Report March 2020 - 31 March 2020
In these dark times, a lot of game devs are showing their quality by joining in sales, holding special events, giving games away for free to those who could really use them right now, and so on. It's inspiring to see, and we'd like to join in the effort by... doing... uh, something. ... Yeah. When you're still developing what's essentially your debut title, there really isn't much to offer the world in its time of crisis. But if you're excited for or interested in Rotund Rebound and its corpulent critters, maybe an open and verbose update on how things are going will bring you a bit of joyful distraction. It's really all we have just now (and it's long overdue as it is), so here we go! https://www.dahku.com/pics/blog/2020-03-31trees.gif It has been a long time. I wouldn't blame anyone for thinking this project was silently canceled (or is just moving very slowly), but that couldn't be f…
- The Amusing Tale of Rotund Rebound's Release Date - 19 October 2019
Earlier this year, after careful consideration and much deliberation, we selected March 20th, 2020. It felt good for our projected schedule and March was supposedly a good month for indies without many AAA releases. Shortly thereafter, Final Fantasy VII Remake and Animal Crossing New Horizons came along, two of 2020's biggest games, both announced for March—ACNH on the same day even. Not wanting to put consumers in the tight spot of having to pick between three epic titles, we decided to push our release date back. Joking aside, we obviously can't hope to compete for attention amid the likes of those giants. Our release date plans entered limbo as we reconsidered viable alternatives. And we're still in limbo, to be honest, but we're seeing it in a positive light. For a two-man team running themselves ragged, more time is never a bad thing as we continually improve upon our original visi…
