YOU BASTARD ROBOTS

By Jim Rossignol on August 4th, 2008.


When naming a game it’s worth taking note of some modern innovations in naming technique, like Choke on my Groundhog, YOU BASTARD ROBOTS. I’d have called it “YOU ROBOT BASTARDS,” because I think that rolls off the tongue a little better. Anyway, that’s the name of the latest mini-game from Kloonigames, and it’s a beautifully scribbled Robotronalike. Direct download here, it’s about 7mb. It’s furiously paced, and reminds me of the many hours I spend playing another more classically-titled videogame and one of the greatest multiplayer creations of all time.
