    Players are breaking my game!!! It's been 2 days since the early access launch of Slingbot Survivors, and players are already making busted builds that break the game. Should I fix it or call it a feature? #indiegame #indiedev #screenshotsaturday

    Ok, whoever came up with this is both a villainous mastermind and a sheer genius. This is like that flappy bird game that came out way back in the early 2000's and captivated millions because it was so simple and yet so devilishly cruel. Honestly, this moves the needle in a whole new direction on survivor-like auto-shooters and what they can be. This is so simple, is such a blast, and is so bloody difficult to master. There's upgrades you can buy with credits you get from runs, there's…

    Slingbot Survivors is not only a great Survivor game, but it is also a unique twist on the genre. While most Survivors focus on risk-taking, upgrades and RNG, you can end up just standing still, killing everything that comes close. Not in Slingbot! Slingbot focuses on unique movement mechanics, and the game encourages you to explore, stay in motion and go as fast as possible. It is extremely satisfying to move using the grapple gun, and when you add "typical" Survivor mechanics on top of…

    Honestly a lot of fun and refreshing from the overdone Vampire Survivors formula. the devs squash bugs very quickly and the content added with every update is always unique and fun. Pros: +Very quick runs +Fun weapons +Difficult, but only on the higher difficulties. If you are having a hard time you can play on a lower difficulty, and the second character you unlock is very defensive without compromising too much on offense so you can fall back on it. +Even this early into early access there is…

    Slingbot Survivors is a fun survivor-like game where you move using a grappling hook. It's all about swinging around, auto-shooting aliens, and picking up new weapons and upgrades. The physics-based movement feels unique for this type of game and enjoyable. You fight lots of enemies and try to survive on an alien planet. It's still in Early Access, so some features and content are missing. Give it a shot if you want to experience a refresh take on the garlic-like genre.

    TLDR- this game is really fun with lots of potential, go buy it ! Slingbot Survivors is a fresh and exhilarating take on the survivor-like auto-shooter formula. While it draws clear inspiration from Vampire Survivors, it quickly zips (literally) into its own territory with a unique physics-based platforming system that completely changes the flow of combat. What sets this game apart is its grappling hook mechanic—swinging around an alien world while dodging enemies and unleashing chaotic…

    This is a true hidden gem. It takes heavy inspiration from multiple other games and doesn't really invent anything new, but the combination of "borrowed" parts is super innovative and the execution is almost flawless! The game feels somewhat light on content, but I think it's reasonably balanced with the asking price, especially if you get it at the current 30% discount. 😉

    Made in Israel I hadn’t realized at the time of purchase that Clover Bite is the developer of this game. It’s made in Israel. I certainly wouldn’t have purchased it, had I known at the time.

    A nice twist on the Survivor genre, implementing more skill based actions and input from the player. The graphics are great, everything is smooth and the game handles well many enemies at once. The game is in Early Access, and the amount of polish and content is very good relative to the price. It's from the studio that created Grime, so the good quality is no surprise.

    I play a lot of survivor-likes, and haven't found one that hooked me so hard in a while. The slingbot mechanic is so much fun, I was compelled to send the dev a two page essay begging them to lean into it more. I was assured that that's the plan going forward, and I am so stoked to see what this becomes. It worth the money as is just for the fun of slinging around, but this really has the potential to be amazing and I hope it gets there. Also, runs great on the deck.

    Game was pretty fun! needs a faster pace in my opinion, but as for early access the twist of SlingBot survivors has much potential for sure!

    Imho, Unique game in the genre. Great movement that is easy to learn and I got used to it pretty fast. Don't be afraid of Early Access on this one. It is already worth its money and only thing that is left to develop here is content. Defenetly buy
