A potato with six guns fights waves of aliens.
Brotato is a top-down roguelike auto-shooter where a potato-shaped alien must survive waves of enemies on a hostile planet until rescue arrives. What makes Brotato unique is the ability to equip up to six weapons simultaneously, creating chaotic and satisfying combat combinations. Between waves, players spend currency at a shop to buy weapons, items, and stat upgrades, with synergies between items creating powerful builds. Over 40 unlockable characters each dramatically change gameplay with unique starting loadouts and passive effects. Runs are short — typically 20-30 minutes — making it perfect for quick sessions. The difficulty curve is expertly tuned, with Danger levels that push experienced players to their limits. Despite its simple premise, the build variety and moment-to-moment decision-making make Brotato endlessly replayable.
