Rola Trooper is an arcade action shooter set in full physics based 3D environments, it’s our experiment with mixing arcade shmup action with semi realistic environments and a real physics system.
In order to introduce a lot of speed into the gameplay, we’ve come up with our new “Rola Tech” motion system, All the characters ride around on Rola ball feet providing super fluid character motion, so it plays like a fast 2D shooter, but with real physics, explosions, 3d environments and destructible scenery.
Rola Trooper has been betrayed, the 3 remaining members of his old fireteam are incarcerated at various locations around the Tyrant Prison Network and guess what? It’s your job to locate and free them.
With a variety of weapons at your disposal, you must guide Rola through the Tyrant Network, dispatching hordes of robot enemies on your way. Rescue your buddies and stop the evil Tyrant from escaping the system.
The game is still in development so the posted screenshots are works in progress, we’ll keep you up to date with regular posts about how the project is going and post new screenies of the current state of development. Please follow along and let us know what you think. Got a suggestion? We’d love to hear from you!

Nice one WAM. Looks like a great blend of fun and violence!
Love the ‘Black Hole’ influence in the Trooper too. Very cool.

Looks like great fun! Loved pixeljunk shooter on PSN arcade, if this is fun and as easy to pick up and play then hopefully you’ll have a hit. Will there be puzzles too?
