Well, it's just Robotron-ish but they don't come at you from all directions, as you're at the bottom of the screen. There was supposed to be a flat-out Robotron clone but I doubt it'll ever be finished at this point: clicky

You can go all around the screen though so you can get surrounded... but you don't start in the middle like Robotron, it's true

This is awesome! I'm prototyping out my PS2 adapter with "Robot Arena" mode so hopefully I'll have that all done by the time this is released.

Finally got around to finishing up my prototype:
The Adapter:
I'm using the original PS2 Controller that I got 15 years ago. I bought a few cheap generic controllers from Amazon and although they work the dead zone is way too wide on all of them to be useful in analog mode. Looks like I'll be refurb'ing my old controller.

Here's a video of me playing Robot Arena (demo version).

What! This is on the VecFever? Well since that seams to be on pause or gone, is their a chance this game will ever come out on cartridge? Robotron is my most favoritest game of all time. This would give me another use for my Edladdin Supertwin 78, with an adapter ofcourse.

VecFever might come back someday, I have no reason to believe it won't (or any sources that say it will either though)

Maybe we could get a Rom over to Chris at Binary Star and he could create a beautiful cart/box/overlay/manual with awesome story and release it to the world in all of its glory. Thats ofcourse considering it’s a good game and worthy of such attention.

Thats ofcourse considering it’s a good game and worthy of such attention. Robot Arena is an excellent game which plays very well and offers a lot of variety. It's no good that Robot Arena and other cool games like "The Core" are available to few people on the very rare VecFever, only. Many people would appreciate a wider distribution. If you have explicit written permission of the author plus the non-protected binary then go for it. I'm pretty sure Packrat Video games would also like publishing Robot Arena to a wider audience. But as long as there is no written permission of the author the author's copyright must be respected. Anything else would be illegal and an affront against the author.

I don’t have a copy of the game in any form. I would like to keep everything legal like Bugsy Seagal. I’m sure the Author reads these forums, and is aware of the interest in his game. Why would he want only a select few be able to enjoy such an amazing creation? Hopefully he will endeavor to make this available to others in the near future! Unless He’s against enormous piles of 💰?

Is it still coming soon!!!! ?? Is it similar to that Warrior game where soon was 4-5 years? That’s ok with me, it’s always worth the wait for great games. Look at the Zelda and Final Fantasy Franchises. Both are usually worth the wait.

Sucks that it seems like a fun game, but like only 40 people on the planet can play. Should consider releasing a rom if no cartridge is planned. Should have happened by now...
