Robot Roller-Derby Disco Dodgeball Gets Huge Content Update on Steam

Update Info

New mode called Arcade, and it functions like a roguelike mode. You battle waves of enemy bots & special bosses, perform stunt shots for bonus currency, and equip superpowers that work together in interesting ways (like an EMP dodgeball, jetpacks, homing dodgeballs, an unblockable fireball shot, or even the ability to slow down time so you can nail that mid-air 360 helicopter shot). Ultimately you’re trying to take down a final boss and earn a spot on the high score leaderboards.

Description
Robot Roller-Derby Disco Dodgeball is a projectile-based sports FPS where you race around a dance club in jet-powered robots, launch off skate park ramps and nail each other with exploding glow-in-the-dark dodgeballs.

Every shot is a one-hit-kill and you can deflect and catch enemy fire or perform a wide array of trick shots for bonus points or just to show off.

It plays like you enabled ‘all-throwing-knife’ mode in other shooters, and were all on skateboards, and at a rave.
