After an amazingly successful early access period, the Vampire Survivors-like Arena Shooter, Brotato, by Blobfish launches its 1.0 version via Steam today with a 20% launch discount. After its early access release, the game remained popular with streamers and continued to extend its reach. As of today, Brotato has sold over 2 million copies on Steam, maintaining an ‘Overwhelmingly positive’ rating at a $5 price point.
For its 1.0 release, many new features have been added to the game, such as new characters, weapons, items and bosses. All these expansions further increase the huge amount of combinations and play styles in the game. Potato fans can jump right back into the bullet hell playing as a Golem drilling into its enemies, a Cryptid with claws or a King wielding Excalibur.
Thanks to Brotato’s success, Thomas is now making plans to build up a team around Blobfish. Even with all the changes happening in the studio, some things stay the same as Thomas claims that the studio’s future games are very likely to remain potato-themed.
Brotato Key features
- Auto-firing weapons by default with a manual aiming option
- Fast runs (under 30 minutes)
- Over 40 characters available to customize your runs
- Hundreds of items and weapons to choose from (flamethrowers, SMGs, rocket launchers or sticks and stones)
- Survive waves lasting 20 to 90 seconds each and kill off as many aliens as you can during that time
- Collect materials to gain experience and get items from the shop between waves of enemies
- Accessibility options: tweak the health, damage and speed of enemies so the difficulty is right for you
