A 2D side-scrolling action RPG where every encounter feels like PvP.
You're an action-figure robot, thrown through a portal into a world built on iron and held together by force. Climb out of the scrapyard, cross the desert, and rebuild a ruined camp into your base.
From there, venture into the wastes, fight through dangerous encounters, and gather the iron needed to repair a broken world. Return to camp to repair, upgrade, and prepare your squad for the next push. Damage carries forward. Iron is limited. Bad fights matter.
Every Fight Pushes Back
Combat is fast, aggressive, and built around enemies that fight for control.
They chase you down, punish openings, launch you into the air, interrupt sloppy attacks, and pressure you back when you try to take control. Block, dodge, counter, recover, and strike before the momentum turns against you.
Fights can be quick clashes during exploration, intense duels, outnumbered fights, or squad battles. Every mistake can cost you iron when you return to camp.
As your power rises, combat escalates. Hits land harder, attacks get louder, effects intensify, and controlled fights can erupt into screen-shaking mechanical chaos.
Opponents Fight Like You
Enemies are not fixed routines with one trick to memorize. They can pressure you from the ground, chase you into the air, punish a bad attack, back off, change rhythm, or become more aggressive when damaged.
That pressure comes from the same moves and parts your robots use. The same combat rules that let you launch, counter, dash, block, and attack can be turned against you.
You are not just clearing monsters. You are reading opponents, reacting to what they do, and fighting to take control back.
Repair, Upgrade, Push Deeper
Iron is your only currency.
Between stages, return to camp to repair damaged robots, buy new moves, equip new parts, unlock stages, and increase how much your squad can carry into battle.
Do you spend iron on repairs?
Do you buy a new move?
Do you upgrade your parts?
Or do you risk one more stage with a weakened squad?
If every robot falls, the push ends. Survival is not guaranteed, and your squad is your lifeline.
Make Your Robots Fight Your Way
Your squad can be built around different combat styles.
Build for long combos and stylish air control. Build for timed counters and quick reactions. Build around armor, lifesteal, heavy hits, ability rotations, or raw pressure.
Swap in anime-inspired attacks like rising launchers, meteor kicks, and super beams. Equip parts that change how blocking, dashing, attacking, and surviving work. Replace a block with a parry. Trade a dash for a roll.
Amplify the effects, tune the impact, paint your robots, and give them names before sending them back into the fight.
