Explore a surreal world where police drift from their purpose in Rooftop Cop, an indie collection of five endless vignette games. Each segment unfolds on a metaphysical timeline, shifting through themes of environmental terror, manic industry, and darkly aloof joy. Balance tasks like collecting citations amid abstract deficits, hunting flags in hostile spaces, gathering evidence from apartments to avoid collapse, expanding rafts with junk in flooded cities, or rearranging sticks on dystopian beaches.
Players chase these looping challenges in distinct, bite-sized sessions that test persistence and adaptation. The package layers on thematic depth without spoken guidance. Indie enthusiasts drawn to abstract, endless experiments will find a fitting playground here.
A world of Police that have forgotten what, and why, they are policing.
Rooftop Cop is a collection of five endless vignette games and a 7-track album. The games are set on a loose metaphysical timeline in which the Cops slowly lose their way.
Each of the five parts is quite different, and varies in theme from environmental terror, to manic industry, to a sort of darkly aloof joy. The companion album is included, and contains more than just the music from the games. (See instructions below on where to find the music after download!)
