About the Game

The Hog Fixer is a roguelite where you play as a “HOG”: a highly skilled, humanoid pig mechanic. HOGs have always been bottom-of-the-barrel workers, taking on the dirtiest, most dangerous jobs no one else would touch. And in this world, fixing colossi is the worst of them all.

PRESS THE BUZZER. OPEN SESAME

Each round starts the same way: press the buzzer. A Colossus rolls into your garage, and your first job is its DIAGNOSIS.

Check the Big Screen to see what’s wrong: missing screws, weakened armor, drained batteries, even entire limbs gone. Find the issues. Find a way to fix them.

A GARAGE FILLED WITH DANGER

These mechs aren’t just broken… they’re hazardous. You’ll have to deal with fires, toxic fumes, electrical surges, and unstable chemicals while you work. The Colossi are unpredictable, and one wrong move could be your last.

UNEXPECTED VISITORS

You’re not entirely alone. After pressing the buzzer, you might get a visitor, or as we call it, an EVENT. A mysterious chest with new tools? A high-stakes slot machine? A gaming chair? Something helpful… or something disastrous? Every round is a gamble.

ABSURD TOOLS, SERIOUS JOB

You don’t always get the best equipment! You get whatever’s lying around: an electric guitar, a handmade screw gun, a katana, or even a janky old computer from Banana Inc… and that’s just the beginning.

There’s a wide arsenal of bizarre and unexpected tools waiting to be discovered!
