Moldwasher: Retro Arcade Cleaning Adventure
Moldwasher is a unique arcade style game that has plans for Linux and Windows PC. Thanks to the ongoing creative talents of developer Rubel Games. Cleaning its way onto Steam. So here you are, you open your fridge after a long gaming session, expecting a cold drink and maybe last night’s leftovers. Instead, bam! A sticky, moldy nightmare staring right back at you. Slime creeping over jars, fuzzy spores on forgotten veggies, unholy goo pooling in the corners. Since it's like something out of a horror roguelike, except it’s in your kitchen. That’s the drama at the heart of Moldwasher, a retro-inspired cleaning title that turns fridge fungus into your ultimate arcade style enemy. But here’s the difference, Moldwasher isn’t about stress. It’s about that weirdly satisfying aaaah moment when you wash the grime away. So think PowerWash Simulator’s therapeutic spray sessions mixed with the wholesome, unpack-and-relax vibes of Unpacking. Add in some quirky food heroes and a whole lot of gunk-blasting action, and you’ve got something fresh. At least for those who want to chill while still feeling like a hero. And yes, Linux players, we’re in on the fun too, since it's all coming to Steam with us in mind.
I use Unity as a game engine and will publish for Linux too
Rubel Games are keeping things nice and simple, with native support planned right from the start. And since the title’s being built in Unity, there’s also the safety net of Proton as a backup option. So however you play, you’ll be covered.
Spray, Swap, and Conquer in Moldwasher
Your weapon of choice? A trusty high-pressure sprayer. And it’s not just “point and shoot.” You’ll swap nozzles, test different spray patterns, and master the sweet science of grime demolition. Blast away mold in tight corners, sweep back sticky pests, or go precision-mode to clean delicate spots. It’s half strategy, half zen, and every spotless surface feels like a personal victory.
