So, we spent the last few weeks making Ra Ra even better. The first stage, Prologue, is meant to ease you into the game and get you comfortable with the gameplay. It was, surprisingly, one of the most difficult levels in the entire game. Not anymore! You’ll find more help along the way, too, including a recommendation system built into the Scrap Shop…

- Meet the Squad - Saida - 21 August 2025
The final cheerleader of the quartet! It’s time to meet our last sheroe: Saida.She is the protector of the squad and takes full responsibility for keeping them safe. She would rather sacrifice her own life than lose one of her friends. This odyssey on Earth will teach her that protection goes both ways, and that showing vulnerability can be a strength.WeaponsCybernetic Blades & Rocket Launcher: If you’re into close combat, Saida might be your call. Her blades spawn straight from her arms: get close to the enemy and it’s TIME TO RUUUUMBLE. Cooldown is very short.Rocket Launcher: It hits hard but reloads VERY slowly. The rocket launcher is the strongest weapon in her arsenal, but it comes with a cost. At least you can take down an enemy in one hit. Beware of the random knockback!GameplayShe can team up with other fast cheerleaders like Aris and Ren to unleash chaos with an extremely high…
- Meet the Squad - Aris - 20 August 2025
Join the squad! This time, Aris is our cheerleader star!When \ dies, the squad needs a new leader. Aris accepts reluctantly, but deep inside, she struggles from imposter syndrome.

WeaponsUzis & Scythe: one will be your best friend for rushing into enemies and dealing serious damage, while the other stands in stark contrast to the very idea of being a cheerleader.GameplayShe's fast, athletic, acrobatic, and has the highest jumps in the game, true to her cheerleading legacy.

- Meet the Squad - Vee - 21 June 2025
Heyo Cheerleaders! This time it's time to meet our Vee! She's a rock, a strong and independent spirit. While this makes her the friend that everyone can count on, it has its drawbacks, especially when you have to deal with emotional turmoil. At the start of our adventure, Vee will have to learn how to cope with loss, grief, and relying on people.Weapon & EquipmentVee has the heavy stuff. Her shield coupled with a machine gun are great options for a versatile position, with a strong defense and an even stronger attack.GameplayThe downside of her heavy gear is that Vee is slower than the other Cheerleaders. Patience is key to making her both crucial and unstoppable on the battlefield — but you’ll still need to proceed with caution if you don’t want to get caught off guard by enemy waves.
- Meet the Squad - Ren - 18 June 2025
Attention Cheerleaders! In this new series, our colorful, brave and badass characters will be introduced. And to start with, we're calling... Ren! Character & TraitsRen is the wild card of the bunch. She’s happy go lucky and typically quite positive. However, because of her bubbly personality she’s often not taken seriously by the rest of the group. Her character arc leads the others into realizing that while Ren may be a goofball, when she has something serious to say, everyone should listen.Combat Abilities & WeaponsFastest cheerleader all around. Fast movement, quick attacks, and very acrobatic. Her weapons of choice are a katana for close quarter combat and power attacks, with a significant range compared to the other cheerleaders, and shurikens for distance attacks. The counterpart is that, compared to the other guns, the shurikens are the 2nd slowest gun, but delivers a heavy punc…

Hello all, We hope everyone had a great holiday season and start to the New Year. The team here is back at it and we are excited to begin sharing more about the world of RA RA BOOM! If you missed our December update, check that out for an interview with Chris Bergman, the creator of RA RA BOOM! In that, he shared some of his background and inspiration on the characters. We thought we would expand on that and show some of the early concept art and designs for the game. We sat down for an interview with both Chris and Gray Shuko, who created the concepts, to discuss how they met, their influences, and to talk about Aris and Ren a little more! Interview: How did the two of you meet? Chris: It was definitely one of those magical moments. I had a good idea of who the characters were, and the type of visual identity I was going for. So, I went onto Artstation and searched "Ninja Cheerleaders"…

Our team continues to work diligently on the game, adding in so much cool stuff that we can’t wait to share soon!

Interview: Q - Hey Chris, thanks for taking time to chat. So, this is the first video game you've made, right? What was your background like before starting Gylee and what made you want to start a studio? A - Yep. RA RA BOOM is our first game. I’v…
