Bot Blitz

Since your game is a sci-fi run-and-gun platformer (Mega Man–style), good enemies should be simple, readable, and pattern-based so players can learn them quickly. Here are 8 enemy concepts you could realistically build for your demo. ⸻ 1. Patrol Drone Type: Basic enemy Behavior: • Moves back and forth on a platform • Turns around when reaching an edge or wall Attack: • Shoots a slow laser every few seconds Purpose: Teaches players basic shooting and dodging. ⸻ 2. Hover Bot Type: Flying enemy Behavior: • Floats in place • Slowly moves toward the player when detected Attack: • Drops energy bombs downward Purpose: Forces the player to aim upward and move carefully. ⸻ 3. Wall Turret Type: Stationary enemy Behavior: • Attached to walls or ceilings Attack: • Fires projectiles in a straight line at intervals Purpose: Creates pressure zones and encourages quick movement. ⸻ 4. Shield Bot Type: Defensive enemy Behavior: • Slowly walks toward the player Attack: • Blocks frontal attacks with a shield • Vulnerable from behind or when jumping Purpose: Encourages movement and positioning.
