help A Robot Named Fight FAQ

What is the Megabeast in A Robot Named Fight!?

The Megabeast is a moon-sized mass of flesh that releases an army of hostile meat creatures. The player controls a lone robot exploring the labyrinth beneath it to stop the invasion.

How can A Robot Named Fight! be both a roguelike and a metroidvania?

Each run generates a new interconnected map with randomized items, secrets, and ability gates. The exploration resembles Super Metroid, but death normally ends that generated run and sends the player into a newly arranged world.

Does A Robot Named Fight! support multiplayer?

Yes. The game supports local shared-screen cooperative play for as many as four players on Steam. Its core campaign can also be played entirely alone.

Which game most clearly inspired A Robot Named Fight!?

Super Metroid is the clearest influence, visible in the side-view map, movement, weapon upgrades, and grotesque alien environments. The procedural runs and randomized item combinations also distinguish it from Nintendo's fixed 1994 map.
