Announcing Rotund Takeoff!

Posted by Toby on October 1, 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 rotundtakeoff.com 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 able to compare for yourself when a small Rotund Takeoff demo goes live on October 7th as part of the Steam Game Festival: Autumn Edition!

And if you aren't interested in Takeoff and just want Rebound, we do apologize for the unexpected delay. Hopefully a few months longer won't be too terrible a wait.

Let us know what you think, and don't forget to join us in the Rotund Discord for weekly dev reports and other exclusive goodies!
