Digital Tribe Games and IndiePub Entertainment, Inc., are bringing the hardcore retro side-scrolling action game Bad Bots to PC and Mac via Steam on May 17, 2013.
As Sam McRae, last surviving member of the “Titan Hauler” crew, you must hack and blast your way through an onslaught of truly bad ‘bots to find a way to prevent a potential planet-destroying catastrophe. The mystery of what happened to everyone while you were in cryostasis unfolds around you as you wade through the bodies of your fallen shipmates, unloading round after round into your relentless automaton attackers.
Award-winning indie developer Vanni del Moral (Point Five Projects) has crafted an intense experience that pays homage to his gaming roots. Bad Bots is filled with 2D run-and-gun excitement coated in a bold visual style set in a large open space craft.
Yearning for some retro, side-scrolling shooter action a la Metal Slug? Then be sure to grab Bad Bots come May 17, 2013, on Steam for both PC and Mac. Find out more about the game on the official website.
