About the Game

When sentient robots get left behind by their creators, they form a civilization and imitate them through artificial emotions. Unable to control these emotions, a civil war breaks out which eventually breaks them up into three different factions.

 

Under the guidance of Enigma, a scientist looking to restore the former peace, players need to infiltrate enemy territory to take out the three factions leaders in one fell swoop.

   

Face off against 10 unique Bosses, all of which can change their behaviour depending on what you say to them.

 

Confront bosses with different emotions and watch them become sad, angry or happy - all of which drastically changing the flow of battle.

  • The first boss might just try to melt you down if you insult her pride, but may also take it a little easier on you after receiving a compliment

Find out how each boss reacts and use their emotions to your advantage!Strong emotions bring greater rewards!

17  futuristic weapons and over 80 weapon-altering modifications.

  • Extra Bullets: Let your bullets spawn additional small bullets and overwhelm your enemies with a swarm of projectiles.

  • Explosions: Blow up your foes in numerous ways, make your explosions hit twice or turn them into atomic bombs.

  • Conditions: Freeze, burn, corrode and charm enemies, maybe even all at once.

Create a unique build in every mission!

6 Emotion-based classes with 27 game-changing upgrades each

  • Sorrow - Summon your robotic dog to distract enemies. Upgrade it to bite enemies, slow enemy bullets or become a magnet!
