room6 has announced Avemary Rocket – Captain Patchwork –, a chaotic real-time action adventure where everything aboard your ship is constantly on fire, sometimes literally. Revealed alongside a new trailer, the game puts players inside a rickety autopilot spacecraft hurtling toward Earth while falling apart piece by piece, forcing you to become the galaxy’s fastest fixer before the entire mission blows apart.
A Spaceship That Never Stops Breaking
The game begins as you escape a mysterious pursuer and board a seemingly safe ship called Patchwork, only to discover it’s a disaster waiting to happen. Systems malfunction on a dime, alien lifeforms creep through the corridors, and your relentless stalker isn’t far behind. With the ship set to travel in real time, players must sprint across its compartments responding to emergencies the moment they strike, whether that’s patching up hull damage, extinguishing fires, or clearing out pests.
Speedrunning Meets Space Survival
Trouble aboard the Patchwork never stops, but any rare moments of quiet become crucial opportunities for exploration. Players can roam the ship to find shortcuts, tools, and upgrades that help them fix problems faster, giving the game a speedrunning-style loop where every discovery trims precious seconds off future crises. The more efficient you become, the more “free time” you’ll uncover, pushing you deeper into the ship’s mysteries.
A Team of Indie Icons Behind the Helm
Avemary Rocket is being developed by a trio of veteran creators known for beloved indie titles:
- Masashi Kimura (room6) – Story and production (“Rogue With Dead”, “OU”)
- Shuhei Miyazawa (room_909) – Director, programmer, sound (“Raindrop Sprinters”)
- Pixel – Graphics and game advisor (“Cave Story”, “Kero Blaster”)
Together, the team describes the game as a love letter to classic ’80s PC and arcade games filled with quirky puzzles, hidden routes, and the kind of handcrafted pixel art fans expect from Pixel’s involvement.
