A top-down arena shooter roguelite where a potato with six weapons fights off waves of aliens.

You play Brotato, a potato who crash-landed on an alien planet and has to hold out until his friends come to pick him up. He can carry six weapons at once, and that number is the heart of this top-down arena shooter roguelite from Blobfish. Each run is a series of short waves, somewhere between 20 and 90 seconds long, where aliens pour in and you try to stay alive while your weapons fire on their own. You can switch to manual aiming if you prefer. Enemies drop materials, which give you experience and pay for a shop visit between waves. There are hundreds of weapons and items, from flamethrowers and rocket launchers down to sticks and stones, and dozens of characters with their own quirks, such as a one-handed build or a lucky one. A full run takes under 30 minutes. It's more action than idle, but the build-and-scale loop will feel familiar to incremental fans. Up to 4 players can play local co-op, and you can tune enemy health, damage and speed if you want it easier or harder. It came out on Steam in 2023.
