Roderick Tron on the rooftops at night: red brick parapets under a crescent moon, chimneys and steeples behind, a gold letter T floating over the gap

RODERICK
TRON

robot composer on 1810s rooftops · run, roll, stomp · find T-R-O-N

A side-scrolling platformer about a robot composer on the rooftops of an 1810s Dutch city. Run, roll, stomp and fire musical notes, find the letters T-R-O-N, and reach the lit door.

The levels are built by hand, with chimney draughts, bell cannons and coal trolleys in the way.
