This game is our first launch and that makes it even more special for us, and it wouldn't be possible to release it if it weren't for all of you who bought, played and supported our work all this time.
And for this special ocasion, we want to take a trip down memory lane. As some of you may know, Sky Racket began as "Racketboy", a small game project created for the Indies VS Gamers game jam right here on Gamejolt!
Here's what the original Racketboy was like:
We got first place on that game jam and that was a big turning point for us! We decided to turn that project into a fully developed game, and that's what started Double Dash as a company. We started getting clients and looking for funding to develop Sky Racket, and that was a 3 year marathon doing work for hire and going to endless meetings, pitching the game everywhere, until finally in 2017 we were selected to receive a government grant, and 2018 would be the year we would spend working only in Sky Racket, until it was released one year ago.

And here we are, 5 years later. Our team has grown larger, got smaller again, we went trough many projects and events, and so far it's been one hell of a ride. And it's only just beggining! So, to celebrate our release anniversary, we want to do something special for you. During the period of October 18 to October 28, we have made available an exclusive level and Boss for you to face and have a little more fun with our game! But why are those levels so special? Because they are inspired by Sky Racket's original version! (The one from 2015)
We are still working hard into making games that bring you fun, laughter, challenges and new experiences, so we hope you will keep supporting us along the way.
So grab your rackets and come join us in this party! ❤
