About the Game

Welcome to BoB - Battle of Bots, a heavy metal blasting, bullet heaven, roguelike Mech-shooter.

Suit up as Hel, engineer-turned-pilot and pilot BOB, mining bot turned Mecha to the best of your abilites. This team might very well be humanity's last hope in a postapocalyptic showdown against endless mechanical mayhem and the megalomaniacal AI DAVE!

Together, you’ll fight through endless waves of robotic enemies and powerful bosses, explore devasted cities, bot-run factories and even THE MOON! Unlock powerful new weapons and abilities, design and build your own BOB and find out who or what broke the moon!

Your reflexes, strategy, aim and carefully chosen upgrades are the only things standing between humanity and the mercilessly maiming metal mob.

"It⁠’s not a question of "if", it is a question of "when" you will die. And I will be there to enjoy every second of it!" ⁠- DAVE

Face a relentless and INFINITE onslaught of varied bots and game-changing bosses while completing challenging objectives. Turn BOB from your friendly neighbourhood bot-battler into a gamebreakingly powerful machine of destruction!

"Boss gets a dollar, I get a dime! That's why I destroy humanity on company time ;)" ⁠- DAVE

Choose between new abilities, weapons or passive skill upgrades to create your own unstoppable build and fighting style. Every run is different! Whether it’s devastating AoE attacks or life-saving defensive skills, the right combination of upgrades might just turn the tide in this never-ending battle. 

"Hear that? That’s the sound of a B-B-B-BOSS BATTLE!" ⁠- DAVE⁠

BoB features a set of terrifying Boss-Bots, each with a unique theme, abilities and attack patters. All are different yet their goal is the same. Turn you into scrap! Whether you are facing down the relentless attacks of Spinner, the razorsharp threads and explosive minions of Weaver or the hulking mass and bass-boosted canons of October, chances of survival are slim. Your BOB is going to need some serious upgrades!

"Only the strong survive? Nonsense! NONE will survive this!" ⁠- DAVE

Will you rise through the chaos and become the ultimate bot-battling legend? Or will you succumb to the AI’s madness and doom us all?

Level. Upgrade. Survive.
