Development

Planned for a late 1995 release on the Saturn[1], Rocket Boy was eventually cancelled, with Rocket Science Games claiming this was because they had witnessed very similar games at Winter CES 1995 earlier that year.[2]


We saw some things at the Consumer Electronics Show very similar to our Rocket Boy and DarkRide, so we've put those on hold. But we still have Wing Nuts, a World War I dogfight game, in the works.
