Rex Rocket

Inspired by the retro glory days of 8-bit games, Rex Rocket is a traditional 2D platformer brought into the 21st century. Paying tribute to classic NES games like Mario, Mega Man, and Metroid, old-school platformer fans will find Rex Rocket a breath of fresh air. Featuring one-of-a-kind handmade pixel art, over 100 handcrafted levels connected in an expansive starship filled with a wide variety of puzzles, enemies, hazards and bosses. To top it off, we have an an original, kick-ass chiptunes soundtrack by Saskrotch.

Branches

Depots

A build is one published version of the game's files on a branch. Steam assigns a new build ID every time the developer pushes an update, so this list is the update history of the app. The files inside a build (depot manifests) are only readable with an account that owns the game, which SteamRaw does not have yet, so build contents are not shown.

Every appinfo change SteamRaw has observed, grouped by changelist. Tags, features, languages, builds, depots, prices and any other key Steam publishes. Tracking since 2026-09-11 21:17 UTC.

No changes recorded since SteamRaw first saw this app. Every future PICS change will be listed here.
