About Automata Break

Set your defenses, use a variety of weapons and stop the escape of the infected Automata!

Automata Break is a local-multiplayer Tower Defense game for VR:
The Tower Defense player will adopt the strategic role of the Tactical Drone to place defenses and use special abilities to stop and destroy the Automata, while the First Person Shooter player in VR, the Robotic Operator, will fight the Automata directly with different weapons to prevent their escape.

You can fully play either on single player or local co-op.

Key Features



🔹 Asymmetrical Multiplayer: One game, two different ways to play
🔹 Local co-op VR: embody the Robotic Operator in VR or the Tactical Drone with your mouse and keyboard.

🔹 Chaotic Single Player Mode: Play both roles at the same time in VR, place towers in the map, then get into the map to fight the enemies directly at any time.
🔹 Buy and Upgrade your VR weapons and towers during the game, plan out your build for each level.
🔹 Special Tactical Drone abilities like teleporting the VR player anywhere on the map, or firing a giant missile on the map.
🔹 Mutators: Modify the mechanics of the game and completely change the game experience.
🔹 Challenge yourself with the two different difficulty levels for each stage.

Soundtrack



We are working with composer/producer Mike Fortu from the worldwide known electronic music duo "Fortu & Mendoza", as well as audio engineer Diego Mercado, and data-driven composer/producer Carlos Ramirez, to craft a powerful and dynamic soundtrack that will change with the different phases of the game.

Story



In the year 2457 Humanity has achieved inter stellar travel and colonized solar systems near our own with a revolutionary AI system: The Automata. An anti AI rebel group has created a virus to corrupt and steal Automata from one of our Network Planets. The infected Automata must be stopped and neutralized before the technology can be used to endanger the public. Support the local AI (A.O.M.I) and use our specialized weaponry to prevent any escape from happening.

Fun game but full of glitches and problems. If you can get past those it is a great game to play with someone else. The other big issue **spoiler start** is no BIG boss at the end. The last level feels almost the same as the previous. **spoiler end** Overall yes, play the game. Just don't expect it to be the best game ever.

This game is one of my top favorite VR games to play with friends. It's great that it supports local co-op with one player on the computer and the other player on the VR headset. I don't know of many games that support that. If you are only by yourself, you can play both roles at the same time: Tower building in between waves and the first person shooter during the waves. But it also supports Steam Remote Play, so you can share the PC screen with the remote player! The gameplay is really fun, it is very much an early access game though. Some of the interactions aren't super polished and I think the VR player needs an update on gun handling. It's a really fun tower defense game though. It is important to note that this game is completely dead to the developers though. They are unresponsive on the discord since mid-2020 and the patreon lists this game as a failed project. There have not been any updates since 2020 I believe. It's super unfortunate because I really enjoyed playing this game and the devs were super nice and responsive when they were still working on it. Maybe one day they will pick it back up again. I still recommend this game if you have a friend to play it with. J…
