We've updated our upgrade shop UI and UX! We found this to be one of the biggest areas of tension from our testers so we both streamlined the systems and gave it a visual update. This change also allowed us to optimize our tutorials to be half the amount of steps! #RoboDome #BulletHell #Roguelite

We're adding visual cues as you unlock upgrades during a run. These elemental footsteps are when you apply movement based debuffs to enemies around you. What are some cool upgrade effects you've seen in other games? #RoboDome #Roguelike #TopDownShooter

To all of our upcoming Battlers out there, we'd like to announce an update to our current play-test on steam! Double the chips, new characters and more! Read all about it in our latest blog post on steam and give the update a try! bit.ly/4tAY3Li

bit.lyRobo Dome - Updated Playtest Now Live! - Blog Post #1 - Steam NewsWe've made some sizeable updates to the feel and features of Robo Dome! As we push forward in the addition of new content we'd like to announce an update to our latest playtest.

Here's our new gear menu in action! Implementing UI is deceitfully time consuming but the result feels way more interesting then before. #UI #UX #roguelike #bullethell #ScreenshotSaturday

We updated the gear menu! We originally only wanted to make it so you can see what you equipped outside the run and what you've currently found but decided to make the whole thing more stylish. #robodome #roguelike #twinstickshooter #UI #UX

We're adding a new shop (and new characters to run it)! Now you'll be able to get drinks at the café to give you an edge on future runs. #screenshotsaturday #robodome #bullethell #indiegame

To break up Robo Dome's gameplay we created challenge rooms like this one where it's all about evasion! These challenges last about 1 minute. Is that enough time to present a challenge or would you find it repetitive if it lasted too long? #screenshotsaturday #robodome #bullethell #indiegame

We have a small update for today! Here's some updates to the shadows. Our previous half tone shadow shader was giving people a headache so we're trying a more subtle hatching texture. #screenshotsaturaday #Robodome #shader #indiegame

We asked for chip suggestions on our discord. One of the suggestions was a gif of Chip from Chip and Dale. Maybe we should have clarified that chips are our in-run upgrades but we obliged anyway. 😉 #RoboDome #indiegame #roguelike

Just a small update today! We added some info text to rooms. Would you prefer something like this to be always on or have a setting to turn it off after learning the symbols? #indiegame #roguelike #robodome

A problem we're hoping to avoid is a feeling of monotony. This flying saucer forces you to move to a higher floor in order to damage it. #indiegame #roguelike #twinstickshooter

Have you been participating in our playtest on Steam? Are matches giving you a hard time? Then go say hi to Gadget and try out some upgrades for your next run! #robodome #indiegame #roguelike #wishlistwednesday

Hey there Robo Battlers! What are some of the coolest upgrades you've seen in roguelikes or any other game? We're constantly looking at ways to make the experience of our game more enticing with new cool abilities you can find in a run! #gamedev #indiegame #roguelike #robodome

We recently encountered an issue. Some guns, like our smart pistol, require a target to fire. We recently made a target dummy drop when opening a chest so you can test your new weapon! 😉 #indiegame #roguelike #robodome #gameplay

This is Robo Dome a running and gunning roguelike! Although we care a lot about gameplay we ALSO take inspiration from games like Hades that give you a feeling of progression through story. Meet our cast and learn more about them as you go! #screenshotsaturday #inidegame

We have a gun that shoots swords. You can shoot them and recall them for a good old sneak attack. What are your favorite weapons from top down games you've played? #indiegame #roguelike #bullethell #robodome

Robo Dome has variable dodge lengths. It takes time for people to pick up but we like the flexibility it gives to movement and evasion. What do you think of it? #indiegame #roguelike #bullethell #robodome

Effects make a big difference for game feel! We're adding trail and elemental effects to all our guns including this sawblade launcher. 😏 #indiedev #roguelike #robodome

Do YOU like high octane running, gunning and explosions? Good! That's the experience we want to give you with Robo Dome! #ScreenshotSaturday #indiegame #roguelike
