History
The Loco Motive project started off as a 2 week game jam project, as part of AdvXJam in November 2020. Adam and Joseph from Robust games had been keen to work on a game idea together for a while, inspired by Dave Lloyd from Powerhoof’s adventure game Unity tool, PowerQuest. The Robust Games team booked two weeks off work, and immediately hopped on Discord to brainstorm their comedy point and click project to the theme of “A Good Time”.

After a whirlwind two weeks, and with the help of fellow contributors Angie Di Rosa (additional art) and Paul Zimmerman (music), the short game jam version of Loco Motive was released to the world via itch.io for free. It received a fantastic reception from the community and media alike, including coverage in PC Gamer, but most importantly encouraged Adam and Joseph to pursue their dream of making Loco Motive a full commercial release. After reviewing the scope of their project, Robust Games pitched their commercial vision for Loco Motive. Seeing the potential in the project, Chucklefish signed Loco Motive in May 2021, funding the title and enabling both brothers to leave their current roles, establish their indie studio, and become full-time developers. Loco Motive’s full project was announced to the public in December 2021, as part of Nintendo’s Indie World Showcase. It’s currently in development for PC and Nintendo Switch, slated for release in Summer 2022.
