BRISTOL, UK – December 15, 2022 – Yogscast Games is delighted to announce that programming puzzle-platformer Bots Are Stupid is now available on Steam.
Created by solo developer Leander Edler-Golla, Bots Are Stupid is a command-based puzzler that takes the 2D precision platformer genre and populates it with an infinite supply of stupid robots and innovative instruction-based control method. Use the game’s simple programming language to teach your bots how to use grappling hooks, navigate speed boosts and more to reach the exit, then watch as they follow your direct instructions. Oh, and just hope that they don’t die too often in the process.
Master the campaign levels or create and share your own with a sophisticated level editor. Create outrageous courses and devise dastardly challenges for players to overcome, before showing them how it's done with downloadable replays.
GAME FEATURES:
▪ Command-Based Platforming - Command your bots to run, jump and use equipment by typing simple, easy-to-learn instructions.
▪ Level Editor - Get creative with the in-game level editor, and create and share your own bot-defying levels with friends online.
▪ Global Leaderboards - With Downloadable Replays! - Experiment with different routes and instructions to command your bot through each level in the fastest time possible, or watch how others have achieved their world-beating times by replaying their scripts.
“Bots Are Stupid is a real headscratcher that we think fans of precision platformers will love,” said Simon Byron, Director of Publishing at Yogscast Games. “If you were to ask me, I’d say it was a lot like some of those hardcore levels you see in a certain level-making game starring gaming’s favourite mustachioed man, coupled up with an innovative control method unlike anything you’ve played before. But you didn’t ask me, so I didn’t say that.”
Bots Are Stupid is available now on Steam for £10.99 GBP / €12.79 EUR / $12.99 USD, with a whopping 20% launch discount. For the latest info on Yogscast Games titles, follow @YogscastGames on Twitter or visit yogscast.games.
