About the Game

Inspired by Sonny Liew’s triple Eisner-winning graphic novel The Art of Charlie Chan Hock Chye, step into the role of a young Singaporean comic artist working on a revival of the classic local superhero: Roachman!

Immerse yourself in a narrative-driven adventure that balances loving comic-inspired storytelling with free-flowing 2D character action setpieces, as you balance the day-to-day life of an artist in a modern day HDB with the pulse-pounding action of Singapore’s greatest (fictional) defender.

  • A character action game wrapped in a narrative that crosses the fourth wall

  • Intense fighting-platformer hybrid featuring a wall-running roach-bandit!

  • Subversive mechanics where real life decisions will alter the comic’s fate.

  • Deep and satisfying action-packed 2D combat that feels like a modern arcade

  • A meditation on artmaking and legacy, a love letter to Singapore past/present
