Defend the silo!

Robot Attack! is a cute claymation wave-defense shooter. Grab Grandpa's old wrench, strap a milk-can jetpack to your back, and protect the family grain silo from endless waves of grain-hungry robots.

WHAT YOU DO

  • Fight robots that burst out of the cornfield, with a wrench, guns, grenades, a maul and a scythe
  • Patch cracks in the silo before your grain leaks away
  • Chase Nibblers trying to steal grain sacks
  • Climb ladders, roofs and catwalks, and ride ziplines between buildings
  • Spend the parts you collect at the tool shed on permanent upgrades
  • Build Spring Traps, Scarecrow Decoys and Scrap Barricades at the stables workshop and place them anywhere

EVERY WAVE LOOKS NEW

Every wave is a procedurally generated robot family with its own name, colors and quirks: The Minty Pirate Teapots. The Rusty Disco Toasters. Each one gets a shareable 6-character family code and a page in your Robot Almanac.

WHAT'S IN THE BUILD

  • 7 weapons: wrench, Rivet Pistol, Barn Blaster shotgun, rifle, grenade launcher, Haymaker Maul, Harvest Scythe
  • A jetpack with hover, air dash and ground pound
  • 3 buildable defenses with their own upgrade track
  • 6 times of day and 4 weathers (fog, drizzle, breezy, clear)
  • Endless waves in 3-wave phases, with checkpoints: losing retries the phase, not the whole run
  • Permanent progression: every part and upgrade is saved forever

EARLY ACCESS 

  • Early Access. The game is playable and endless, and it's still growing. Updates are free and your save carries over.

  • macOS: right-click the app and choose Open the first time.
