Pepper Game Studio’s new game, ‘Golden Record Retriever’, which presented a unique idea through the pawnshop operation simulation ‘Umbrella Ban’, exceeded the target amount by 100% within 10 days of starting Tumblbug sponsorship.
‘Golden Record Retriever’, which was first revealed to gamers at the indie game festival ‘Burning Beaver 2022’ last year, is a roguelike deck building game with a golden retriever as the main character, as the title suggests. The Golden Retriever, who was captured by aliens because the ‘Golden Record’ sent by the owner to various places in the universe caused various troubles, and plans to humorously express the process of recovering the record by joining forces with other aliens.
Like the background story, the way the game is played is also unique. Players form an expedition by welcoming several aliens as colleagues on a spaceship, and send them down to each planet to retrieve the Golden Record. Depending on the journey, the expedition faces various situations, and the main character, a golden retriever who cannot speak, rolls dice and chooses actions according to the situation.
The aliens, who are made up of colleagues, each have their own pain and circumstances, and each has a different aura and personality when rolling dice, requiring careful team arrangement. In addition, since each dice of the companions has different characteristics, it is expected to provide gameplay in which the luck factor of the dice and the strategy are properly harmonized.
You can play the demo version of ‘Golden Record Retriever’ through the Steam page, and if you participate in Tumblr Buck sponsorship, you will receive various physical goods along with a Steam code depending on the amount. Funding will continue on the Tumblr page until June 26th. The rewards for each sponsorship amount are as follows.
