We’re stirring up some excitement!
Gumbo Machine, LLC is a software firm based in the United States, cooperating with developers and artists from around
the world. We believe in pin-pointing the desires of various markets, and providing them a quality product along the way!
Our very first release was Battle Rockets™, a hybrid "SHMUP Fighter" starring characters inspired by the game console
market. This project was released on PS Vita® on March 31, 2020, and received a comprehensive update on March 31,
2021. We have released an iiRcade® version on February 18, 2022; eventually, players can expect to see Battle Rockets™
arrive on various other platforms.
Also available is a game known as Ultra Mission™. This title is inspired by the arcade shooters that time forgot, featuring
20 labyrinthine levels. Ultra Mission™ has launched on PS Vita® and iiRcade®, with other platforms expected to receive
this game in the near future.

foremost for PS Vita®. In Battle Rockets™, each player chooses a

the face buttons and right analog, both contestants are well-
equipped for battle...any time and anywhere!

depleted, you win!
•
Short Fuse - Five rounds, five chances to get the first shot!
Who will win the most rounds?
•
Cash Grab - Collect all the coins you can, or just zap them out
of your foe's pockets! Watch for that time limit, though!

DATE: January 12, 2081
LOCATION: Otto Labs HQ
OBJECTIVE: Find out what the heck is going on!
Embark on a dangerous investigation in Ultra Mission™, the latest
arcade-inspired shooter from Gumbo Machine™. As an agent of the
Stellar Exchange Commission, you must traverse the labyrinthine
maze that is Otto Labs, featuring 20 action-packed levels. Each and
every corridor is littered with powerful automatons and questionable
experiments.
One thing is certain: this is going to be a blast!
Ultra Mission™ has launched first on PS Vita®, serving as one of
the final titles for the platform. Our last PS Vita® game has released
in the European PlayStation® Store on July 20, 2021, followed by
the North American PlayStation® Store on July 22, 2021.
Want that arcade experience? Ultra Mission™: Arcade Edition is
available worldwide on iiRcade®. Players can “have a blast” with
this enhanced version, featuring online leaderboards and a dual-
stick control option, as of September 10, 2021.
Starting May 1, 2022, players can also find Ultra Mission™ on
PS5™ and Xbox® consoles.
Battle Rockets™ 2.0 is a free content update,
released for the PS Vita® version of Battle Rockets™.
Four brand-new fighters have been added, each based
on the latest generation of gaming platforms.
In addition, new content has been added to every
mode:
•
Duel Shock (Remix) - Lower your opponent's
HP, but watch out for the constantly-moving
maze. If your foe’s HP is all depleted, you win!
•
Short Fuse (Remix) - Five rounds, five chances
to get the first shot! But this time, we cut the
speed in half! Who will win the most rounds?
•
Cash Grab (Remix) - More coins, flying by even
faster! Collect as many coins as you can, or just
zap the coins out of your opponent's pockets!
Time is still of the essence, though!
•
Super Challenges - A brand-new difficulty setting
for the existing eight single-player minigames.
Ready for another challenge?
Battle Rockets™ 2.0 will serve as the basis for every
future release of Battle Rockets™, starting with the
iiRcade® version.
