Botlike is a 2D shooter roguelite that tries some interesting things, but seems to fall flat in a lot of ways. The character movement is clunky in a way that doesn't feel challenging, but feels frustrating. The humor in the game is a little in your face, but it doesn't feel earned. The upgrades cost lavish amounts for the amount you earn from killing opponents. It feels to me like a slightly more polished Flash game. In its current state, I can't recommend Botlike for people interested in various roguelites.

User Reviews
To be an early access game I have to say that it is really well done. It has an excellent progression system and the learning curve is right. There are small bugs but nothing that compromises the gaming experience. I recommend it to roguelite/bulletshell lovers.
Botlike already feels like a good roguelike with the potential to bring you hours of fun. The Gameplay is solid and rewards you with a constant feeling of progression, similar to games like Rogue Legacy. Of course, as an Early Access Game, Botlike still has some bugs or balancing problems. But with a little bit of polishing, this Game could become a new Indie-Hit. If you like Roguelikes, you should at least give it a try.
Dead game. They even had the gall to sell a soundtrack that they never released. Do not buy.
10/10 i cant say anything else
Botlike is a solid Roguelike Game, which goes in the right Dirction. Sure, its got still a lot to improve but its only Early Access, so everything can change quit a lot. Lets see how the Game changes with the next Updates and reached Milestone. I only can recommend give this Game a chance and see for yourself, if you like it.
Its an ok game. but its also not been updated in nearly a year. wait until a full release.
Game really feels like it has some potential. Got frustrated with it at first, so I put it away for a little while and recently picked it up back up again, hoping there would be some signifigant updates. Controls are still a little clunky and character feels sluggish. Upgrades are ridiculously expensive, so unless you love grinding the first level over and over again for a few pieces of currency, I wouldn't recommend it. Doesn't even feel like a "git gud" game... at least those are enjoyable. Sorry, but I can't recommend it.
The early access version of this game is much more playable using keyboard and mouse than using a gamepad, at least for me. With all that said, it looks like all the right stuff is there in the game. The controls are easy to get used to and there is a definite beauty found in the thought 'less is more'. The music is amazing and transitions from area to area. The control is tight. Death is a part of this game, but the balance between what you can randomly acquire on your misadventures versus what you can build up between deaths is very nice. Because there is a balance between the two, I hesitate to call this a 'roguelike', where accomplishment is >90% the skill and randomness of a run. With all that said, sitting down and blowing stuff up is fun! Looking forward to more content and challenges ahead. Some improvements I'd like to see (skipping content requests and keeping everything vague to try to avoid spoilers): - More granular randomness: the current level seems to be gen...
