Erabit Studios :

M.O.O.D.Sis a fast-paced, top-down shooter where robots battle with—and for—emotions. You'll navigate procedurally generated, dungeon-crawler-style maps to confront the final boss and claim their Moods Module. Before each boss fight, you’ll engage in a brief conversation that will alter how the battle unfolds. You’ll be armed with futuristic weapons and game-changing Add-in modifications as you take on waves of fierce mechs. Harness the power of your class's Emotion Ability and its upgrades to help you on your journey. Play solo or team up with up to 4 friends in local co-op.

 

The latest update is out now, and we’re offering a 20% discount during the Raid Survivors festival on Steam, celebrating bullet heaven games!
