Filament Games has announced a release date for their upcoming robotics sandbox game RoboCo where you partake in a campaign of challenges to build robots and help humans. You have complete freedom to build whatever you want, as long as it's capable of solving humanity's most urgent problems. Robots can be built with prefabricated blueprints or you can choose to start from scratch. You can even share your creations in the community workshop for others to see!
See below for some key features:
Build Any Robot You Can Imagine - Snap together an expansive variety of parts to bring the machines of your dreams to life. Hook up controls, customize how your robots move and operate, then add fun cosmetics like googly eyes and hats!
Conquer Challenges - Put your engineering skills to the test in our tricky, open-ended challenges. Build custom robots to complete tasks like delivering sandwiches to hungry diners, preparing a romantic dinner, and showing off your robot dance moves!
Program Automated Behaviors - Tired of controllers? You have the option to use the powerful and easy-to-learn Python language to automate your creations and let your robots conquer the challenges while you kick back and relax!
Share Your Innovations - Using Steam’s built-in community workshop features, you can share your masterpieces with other robotics geniuses, or download others’ robots for inspiration and remixing!
