Roboom Galaksi

Roboom Galaksi was a game project for the Finnish gambling authority Veikkaus.

The game is a multi-level space odyssey with 500 levels and a continuous storyline. It was the first game in Veikkaus' portfolio to use a story driven approach and casual game mechanics.

I did some game design, a lot of illustrations for cut-scenes and assets for this project. The work was done in 2017.

The story and player actions are framed and guided by a friendly personal assistant robot that somehow managed to avoid been taken over by the nefarious galactic space virus!

And last but not the least, the actual game levels are based on the previous iteration of the game. We left this part of the game alone and just added some dynamic level generation  to increase variation

The idea is to blow up the robots. The more you get, the more you win.
