Blue Brain Games and Collision Games have launched a demo for their cooperative escape title, Expendabots, on Steam. Designed for one to four players, the game tasks participants with exploring procedurally generated islands and abandoned dungeons to recover technology before the environment disappears.
Players control vulnerable robots that must navigate environments while avoiding enemies that react to both sight and sound. A unique gameplay mechanic involves proximity voice chat, which enemies can detect, forcing players to move quietly, disable lights, or hide to survive.
To aid survival, each robot carries a portable 3D printer used to craft equipment, decoys, and emergency power cells from collected filaments. If a teammate falls, their mechanical heart can be retrieved or used to respawn into a newly printed body, allowing the squad to continue their mission.
The current Steam demo includes a tutorial, the Biolab dungeon, and progression up to level 5. Players can also explore the airship starting area, which serves as the hub for their operations.
