Shoot Many Robots video preview three levels of half Metal Slug, half Borderlands chaos

When Gears of War creator Cliffy B is so taken with your game he invents a new🌠 nickname to describe it, you’re probably on to something special. Shoot Many Robots is the real (and rather awesome) title, but with chaotic side-scrolling run-‘n-gun action that’s clearly inspired by Metal Slug, and metal-massacring co-op that’s definitely reminiscent of Borderlands, the alias “Border Slug” fits pretty well too.

How do the two styles mix? And how are a freeze ray, gnome launcher and “impending baldness” involved? We played through three levels of Shoot Many Robots with the deve🍎lopers at Demiurge Studios, and recorded the whole explosively silly thing…

Shoot Many Robots releases early next year on XBLA, PSN and PC.
