How does your game fit the theme?
In the game you search a Dumpster(Box) when you're done you build a battle outside the Dumpster(Box) with the parts you got.

Very original take on the theme, and executed well. This might unironically be my favorite entry of the jam. Good job!!!!!!
This is so cool! reminds me of little piggies kind of
This is so cool! It's like Ultimate Chicken Horse meets Besieged. This has a lot of potential, and is already very polished and functional. Great work and very unique gameplay.
Great to hear that you liked it.
When I was making the game I thought of it like a mix between Ultimate Chicken Horse and Trailmakers.
This was great, has tonnes of potential if you choose to continue it. Had great fun playing this.
I can’t stop playing this game. I started because I’m going through rating all of the games and legitimately spent an hour and a half just trying out new bot combinations and such. I’ve had the most fun strapping as many thrusters on the back and launching myself at them with a spear on the front. If you do decide to continue this game, I would suggest to add some upgraded parts that you could have a chance to get in later stages and possibly an rpg or gun. Great game, recommended it to all my friends.
This was fun. I accidentally dismissed the parts panel before I was done building my bot, and couldn't get it back, so I went into the third battle completely unarmed. I did manage to ram my opponent into one of the side panel things though, so I didn't go down without a fight.
It's really impressive how much control you have when building the bots.
As I was writing this I realized the parts had arrows on them, and I could probably get better steering and stuff if I paid attention to those, and probably do a better job of trapping opponents with saw blades if I got them rotating towards each other, so I started up another game. On the first battle none of the bits connecting the parts to the bots loaded in and we were both loose piles of spinning parts, so maybe I'll come back and explore the depths of the mechanics later. It was fun though
The bug where the parts did not connect can be easily fixed by pressing escape and reset match
Had to play this the moment i saw it, absolutely loved it - controlling the wheels gave me some trouble, but that didn't stop me from charging with thrusters, saws and a dream - met my match at the final boss :(
Super fun, reminded me of playing robot wars like flash games back in the day, and would totally play this more if there was a multiplayer mode and more pieces and whatnot!
Im glad you liked it. I was planing to add more parts but I did not have the time.
Epic game , reminds me of robot wars or scrapyard challenge. Great game, I did get stuck where the enemy and I couldnt move so we got stuck but maybe im just silly
One of my favourite games!!
