Melbot Studios Reveals Roguelike GodsTV During Six One Indie Showcase
As revealed during the Six One Indie Showcase today, Melbot Studios is thrilled to announce GodsTV, a chaotic top down co-op roguelike ARPG that blends irreverent cosmic satire with deep, bold action and narrative. The game’s demo is also available alongside the announcement, inviting players to dive headfirst into a twisted universe where gods pull the strings and contestants fight for fame, glory, and survival. Check out the announcement trailer below!
GodsTV blends fast-paced action with dark satire, putting players in the shoes of four unlikely contenders battling through brutal contests orchestrated by unhinged gods. Choose a deity to serve, earn divine gifts, and climb the fame ladder one absurd broadcast at a time. Every death is more than failure - it’s a chance to regroup backstage, strike shady deals to shape your rise to fame, and return flashier than ever.
Whether flying solo or teaming up in co-op mode, players face ever-evolving challenges that change with each run. To succeed, players must earn the favor of the gods, unlock signature weapons and skills, and expand their fanbase as they fight to become the greatest stars of the interdimensional Fame Show Arena. GodsTV is a ruthless, punk rock take on fame, showbiz, and consumerism where the Contenders will sacrifice it all for clout in a hilarious quest for stardom.
Melbot has partnered with Spud Gun Studios, the animation house behind the hit channel Mashed (5M subscribers) to co-produce the narrative side of the game and the GodsTV animated series for Youtube.
