Description
Shipping Q2 2013

"Exploding Robots is a fast-paced strategy game built around a different idea of managing gameplay, and around a different kind of artificial intelligence. Utilizing the latest generation of GolemLabs’ EHE system, your robots and enemy units will learn and adapt to your play style on the fly. There are no pre-programmed routes or behaviors in Exploding Robots. Units are given objectives, and will dynamically find new ways to meet them.

You’ll control your units by giving them orders, which they’ll generally follow. However, your units will occasionally break rank, go after shiny things, and won’t get killed without arguing about it (they might even turn on one another). In Exploding Robots, you control your units much like you would control a battalion of cats. They're deadly, driven, and they'll make sure you won't forget it.
And that's not even counting the other guy's units coming in to destroy you..."

• Multiple game modes, including Deathmatch, Capture the Flag, and King of the Hill
• 8 maps available at launch
• 5 unique robot classes - Bomber, Sentry, Engineer, Scout, and Spy
• Groundbreaking EHE technology powered AI system, making for robots that adapt on the fly according to your style of gameplay
• Additional maps and game modes being offered via expansions
• Improvements for your robots including experience, items, and cosmetics changes, with more updates on the way via expansion
• Post launch tournaments, giveaways, and special items

NOTE:
This game is still heavy in development where the final art style is being worked on. We've decided that we'd rather not release a gameplay video that might not show the final product accurately.
There's also the fact that the gameplay of Exploding Robots is a little different than the established conventions. In the coming weeks and months, we will be releasing more information about the game centered on the gameplay and technology, but also on the backdrop, characters, and everything that makes it unique. Stay tuned!

Interesting on the paper: dynamic adaptative behavior... +1

Bah, if this isn't a game put it in the Concepts section. Let us know when you have something which can conceivably be played.

How does this game actually WORK? It seems like a tricky concept to explain in video, but please at least TRY.

Thanks. :)

I might have said this before... Put up a gameplay video so that I know what it is that I'm voting for.

i really don't understand why devs decide to throw up the game they have been working on with passion with no gameplay videos of any kind , are you really that stupid ?

I really need to see this in action first.
I'll check it out again in the future.

No gameplay, easy to downvote.
