Right click to aim with your companion mech manually.

It’s like patting your head and rubbing your belly—
but with lasers. 🔫🤯

In this fast-paced single player arena shooter, you control two Mechs. 🤖🤖

One is under your full command, one fights alongside you
– autonomously or as your remote-controlled gun 💥💥

Use the Right Mouse Button to use manual aim and shoot for your Companion Mech.

Perfect for double fire power when single mech fire isn't enough (it's never enough) 💥🐞
