Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken – VIDEO GAME NEWS – Playstation 3 Update

The hen house is abuzz today! Ratloop Asia, an independent publisher and developer of high quality, innovative games, today announced their promised sale for its cinematic platform adventure game, Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken, on PlayStation®Vita handheld entertainment system. With a variety of unique new features including new chapters, puzzles, and plenty of fowl humor, Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken is rated “M” for Mature by the ESRB and is currently 40% off for PlayStation® Plus members.

The Rocketbirds PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system version has been amped up for the PS Vita and notable differences include tilting screens, both Adhoc and Online Co-op and two difficulty settings. The Vita version has a new end boss as well as improved graphics – several chapters have been modified to improve both graphics and flow.  Players who have already launched into Rocketbirds on the PS3TM will be rewarded with two additional co-op characters, Sniper Budgie and Agent H – the bird behind the sci-fi rock band New World Revolution.

From now to April 2nd, PlayStation® Plus members will be rewarded with a deep 40% off discount.  Now’s the perfect time to grab Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken for the reduced price of $5.99 (the PS3TM version will also be discounted to $7.19 during the same timeframe), just in time for some exciting news that will be coming soon for the Rocketbirds franchise.  Keep watching the official ratloop Twitter (@ratloop) for more details as to when this big announcement will be unveiled.

In Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken for PS Vita, players will take control of Hardboiled Chicken, the original Coq of War (a chicken so tough, he survived being boiled as a fetus), to lead the rebellion against the draconian penguin oppressors to overthrow their hold on Albatropolis! It’s an old-school cinematic action-adventure set in the Rocketbirds universe, a world filled with some despicable and often violent birds.  The game sports jetpacking sections, stab-action in the Hardboiled difficulty setting, mind controlling brainbugs, some pretty nifty PS Vita controls, sweet music videos and an Ad-Hoc / Online cooperative mode with its own separate campaign!

The single player campaign in Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken takes players through 15 chapters of Penguin destruction. For the PS Vita version, Ratloop has wired the screens to the built-in motion sensors, so players can tilt the detailed, non-scrolling screens at will.
