About this game
An evil group of toys, calling themselves the action figure elite, have taken over the world. In 24 hours they will wipe out all of humanity. Only Rocket Man X can stop them.
Fight Enemies
Use your fireworks to fight through areas that have been infested with evil toys. Clear out a steel factory that has been flooded with lava. Rescue capture humans from the berry plantation. And make the beaches safe again. After clearing all 8 major areas, you can finally strike at the AFE's headquarters for some final challenges.
Platform
Not only can you move and jump, but you can also wall kick to climb walls. You can also dash. Dash through the air to get some extra distance, or dash into your foes to deal some damage to them.
Find Collectables
Hearts and armor are scattered throughout the world. There is one piece in each of the 8 main levels. Collect hearts to increase your maximum health. Each piece of armor has a unique effect. One may give you an additional air dash, one may allow you to break new objects, and one may just half all incoming damage. In some levels you can even find energy storing tanks, which can collect fallen health when your health is full, and use them later. Not all of these will be easy to find, but you can always return to a level to find them later.
Unlock New Weapons
After defeating one of the 8 main bosses, you will unlock one of their weapons to use yourself. These weapons will (for the most part) have a limited source of ammo. But fear not. Defeating enemies will sometimes result in them dropping ammo orbs. Collecting these orbs will restore ammo to every weapon you have.
Purchase Accessories.
Coins are scattered across the lands. enemies and destructible objects will also drop coins. The more health the enemy has, and the more valuable the object, the more coins they will drop. You can use these coins in the shop to purchase accessories: 4 minor upgrades that can be applied at a time. Which 4 you may choose before entering a level. These usually have smaller effects that the armor, such as increasing your speed or decreasing the amount of ammo used when a weapon is fired. You can also buy hats, which have no effect on gameplay, but does look cool.
Drive Cool Rides.
In some levels, you may find vehicles to help you on your journey, each with its own unique set of moves.

Patch NotesOfficial
Potential crash fix
The randomizer page has had an inconsistent crash because of the shaky way the randomizer was set up. This update should fix the crash by stopping the code's execution before the crash can occur, and then trying again. If it fails multiple times, then it will stop and tell you to try again. There's no guarantee that it will stop every freeze or crash, but it should be a bit more consistent in succeeding.Read full article on Community Announcements (wanton wolf)Patch NotesOfficial
Removed the Ai image
Removed the Ai generated fire sprite sheet from the game. It has been replaced with a finished version of the hand drawn fire sprite sheet that the Ai filled out originally. Now the fire is 100% human drawn. Also fixed a small bug where the flame sword and frost sword accessories gave the other's effect.Read full article on Community Announcements (wanton wolf)Patch NotesOfficial
Minor Adjustments
Slightly changed Fairy behavior. Changed the size and position of enemies in the first combat area of the first AFE stage. Enemies are now less likely to get stuck hiding behind coffins, and are easier to spot. Removed one of the monkeys from the same combat area.Read full article on Community Announcements (wanton wolf)Patch NotesOfficial
Major content update for Rocket Man X
Here is the list of additions to Rocket Man X in the major content update. Added new game+ and new game++. These are accessed by clicking new game in the title screen, before selecting a difficulty, after beating the game once. New game+ saves all armor, hearts, energy tanks, money, and purchased items, while simply resetting what levels have been beaten. This only works with the most recent save. Using new game+ after a randomizer is untested. While the hope is that it will work properly, there is a chance it will break the game and make it unbeatable. New game++ does the same as new game+, but also saves your weapons. Added a randomizer. Settings and randomization are done in the title screen, and can only be accessed after beating the game at least once. Note: The randomizer has been tested repeatedly, but there is always a possibility that a glitch has made its way through. If you find a glitch, please report it on the community hub or discord. If you encounter a crash, make sure it isn’t a consistent crash before reporting. The randomizer is slightly unstable, so it sometimes won’t crash for the same reason twice. Added an item tracker for both the normal gameplay and randomizer. In normal gameplay, this will appear in the top left corner of the drawing pad when hovering over a level, and will show whether the level’s armor, heart, and energy tank (if there is one) have been collected. In randomizer mode, this will show every collectable item in the level. The drawing pad will no longer draw the level underneath the tracker in this mode. There are also some adjustments made to make the game more fun. Added mech teleporters throughout Blade Beetle’s level to reduce backtracking. Adjusted the lever in Blade Beetle’s level to no longer take control of the camera. Replaced the glass plane in Blast Berry’s level with a breakable glass plane. Reduced the number of dogs in Igloo Iguana's level. Reduced the volume of the dogs’ wheel sound effect. Changed Snowbot’s slam...Read full article on Community Announcements (wanton wolf)Patch NotesOfficial
Fix for the Blade Beetle heart
The heart in blade beetle's level should work now if collected for the first time. Igloo Iguana's Global Varming Inator no longer has a hitbox after dying.Read full article on Community Announcements (wanton wolf)
