| Patch 0.9 Release | 2024-02-02 | Patch 0.9 Welcome to the next update for Robot Revolt, patch 0.9. Originally intended as two seperate patches, a halloween update was rolled together with a feature update. We hope you enjoy! Our next patch (Coming Soon TM) will focus on reworking items and weapons, including added new ones. We feel like the game is finally getting close to a solid base from which to expand upon. Highlights - new map progression added (final, we promise!) - added difficulty, first 5 are available, more coming in further patches - reworked unlock system (for example the market is something you unlock) - new biome - attributes are rebalanced, simpler to underst |
| 1 Year Anniversary | 2024-01-22 | Happy Anniversary and a happy new year! Phew, 1 year is a long time. It has been a hectic year and unfortunately we haven't had time to work as much as we wanted. A lot of stuff was delayed and sometimes we were too silent about it, sorry! Even today should have been a relatively large patch we have been trying to finish. We have a lot of ideas and unfortunately the game didn't go as well as we hoped. We still intend to finish most of our ideas but in a lesser capacity. Over the next months (no specifics ːsteamhappyː) we will release updates featuring some of the tweaks and changes we have been working on: New map progression system: portals |
| 0.8.1 hot fix | 2023-06-30 | - fixed agility pickup not giving agility - removed finish line mechanic (will come back later) - stat display should now update instantly |
| Patch 0.8 | 2023-06-29 | Welcome to patch 0.8 Compared to the last two patches, this one is rather small. - Random Biomes on each playthrough inlcuding new "desert" biome - Enemies have been tweaked to better match the genre, 50% more enemies, 50% less speed - New Spiderling behaviour: They will jump and attach to you. - New Specialist behaviour: Jetpack around and spawn towers We currently have an increase in time to spend on the game so expect some major updates during the summer. We hope to have 0.9 ready soon. Also, the summer sale will be the last chance to get the game cheaply. In patch 0.10 after the summer sale the game will increase in price to around 6 doll |
| Patch 0.7.2 | 2023-05-03 | - zombots in dungeons now scale twice as fast - removed physics from pickups, should fix most issues - corrected upgrade for shotgun from "pierce" to "knockback" - added upgrade to heavy metal to increase "reverse time" - trait loot window no longer throws nullref error (breaking the game) - tweaked colliders to prevent enemies from getting stuck on them - fixed knockback - added a delete save function. The old save will be saved as .old. To delete your save click and hold with your mouse, on the version number in the options menu! |
| 0.7.1 | 2023-04-30 | - fixed market not working correctly - enabled new pickups correctly (stat books, map and super magnet) - updated options menu to similar tab interface - greatly increases health for boss (15.000 -> 75.000) - fixed projectiles in factories - fixed shadows |

It should work fully but unfortunately none of us regularly use a controller and we had to improvise :) We really would like your feedback to get this into proper working order. For now |

| Launched! | 2023-01-21 | Hello and welcome to the launch of Robot Revolt. After missing the original launch date of the 13th of January we are finally ready to release the game in a very early access version. It took a week of grueling effort to get the game into state that we believe is a great starting point for it. As it stands, the game is very barebones but includes the essentials for getting a feel of how we want the game to be. In the next couple of weeks - besides a lot of tweaks and rebalances - we are focusing on adding in a couple of big features we decided to leave out. The first of which will be the unlock and trait system, the foundation for the overall |
