Glory on Pluto is a new rocket-building roguelike from developer LittleBigEars Games and publisher Yogscast Games. It’s on the launch pad to release on Steam at a later date, but before take off, a new demo has been released alongside a new trailer showcasing the game’s gameplay.
Set on a journey to reach the galaxy’s most famous dwarf planet, Glory On Pluto challenges players to construct and optimise a circular engine made up of fuels, crew, and modifiers, all working together (or not) to propel their ship forward as far, and as chaotically, as possible.
At the heart of the game is its rotating engine system. Players carefully place items to create powerful synergies. However, the entire engine board shifts after each boost, forcing pilots to rethink, adapt, and occasionally panic. What starts as a neat, well-planned build can quickly spiral into something far more unpredictable – sometimes brilliant, often disastrous, always fun.
“Glory On Pluto is one of those dangerous games where you think you’ve built something clever, only for it to spiral into chaos,” says Simon Byron, Managing Director, Yogscast Games, “and somehow that’s when it’s at its best. The game has come on in leaps and bounds since we first met Tom almost a year ago – and the team here has become so enraptured that we had to sign it.”
“There have been so many incredible roguelikes in the recent past, and most of them use real-world analogies as a jumping-off point,” adds Tom Stockley, developer of Glory On Pluto. “I wanted to push away from established tropes in the genre, and find a core loop that feels different from anything else you’ve played. I’m delighted Yogscast Games spotted the potential and shared my vision. I think we’ll make a brilliant team.”
