The premise for bad bots is the standard sci-fi trope about robots that have been programmed to kill, with you, the main character, being the only one capable of stopping them. The story isn't very good but it isn't terrible either, it's kind of just there to move the game along. The set pieces and art style are servicable - you end up seeing a lot of the same sprites and textures, but there's enough variance that...

In Bad Bots you're a mechanic who finds himself on a spaceship that's overrun by berserk robots. The story begins promisingly: you find yourself in a compactor akin to Star Wars and have to escape there with a portable AI who aids you on the way. Story advances in static cutscenes like a comic. Then you meet the first knife bots. Their animation is annoyingly clunky. The bots will be armed with guns soon, thankfully...

With so many negative reviews it was hard for me to make the choice of whether or not to buy this game. I spent a great deal of time combing the forums to get a feel for what Bad Bots exactly was. Not to mention starting a post that insisted that games such as Bad Bots should have a demo when mixed reviews come into play. Once the demo was made available, I spent about an hour playing Bad Bots, got a feel for the...

2013 game if i look at what is on offer across steam these days, this isn't a weak point. a recent playout had me pleasantly surprised, bright graphics that lifted my mood, interesting shooter (2D sidescrolling), the story is typical; (THERE-IS a story), you pick up a limbless bot that now is your companion narrating along the way, AI gone haywire, space travelling junkyard world, +get it on sale, EVEN...

Sigh, where to begin... The game looks nice and the idea is good. The story is... Meh. The audio is not good and the crane audio hurts my ears. The music is repetitive and simple, but not that bad. The game so far is very easy on medium difficulty, hitting a trap removes 1 to 2% of my life... Now, I have to list alot of CONS: -Some sounds will annoy you and make you want to leave some rooms ASAP. -Gameplay is...

Absolutely basic and mediocre game in the genre. Despite being short (less than 3h) it overstays it's weelcome rather soon and feels like whole 6 to 7 hours of tedium. Works ok with the UHD UWS Surround, artstyle is also ok, but animation is janky. The game doesn't have customizable keys and default controls are awful. Kinesthetics feels unresponsive due to every animation being played till the end and some...

Really fun game for the price! (I Paid it 1 E). Highly recommended. Easy controls, retro graphics, only bad thing is that is short and it doesnt have too much of replay value. But for the time it lasts is super fun and addicting.

An extremely shallow, poorly balanced action game with good controls. PROS: -Clean controls -Variety of weapon types NEUTRALS: -Storytelling scenes were fair. -Level design is bland. CONS: -Combat mechanics are awful. Since the enemy hits you almost instantly, the *vast* majority of combat is just trading hits with the enemy. Note: due to poor combat mechanics, you *have* to just trade hits with the enemy until...

As the name kind of give away its a bad game so there is at least honest advertising. Its a mediocre 2d sidescrolling shooter with among the most repetitive gameplay I have come across in a shooter game ever and the game has really poor pacing since the game goes on forever and ever before the first thing happen...and then you are all of a sudden on the end boss. The game has no music while you play at all and has a...

There's a game breaking bug where you can't break a vent and can't get out of the ventilation system. A shame because the game seemed decent before that.
