Press release:
Edinburgh, Scotland – October 19th, 2023.
The Edinburgh-based (Scotland) indie games publisher Firestoke and Bristol-based (the UK) indie games developer Catastrophic_Overload, are today very proud and thrilled to announce that their tower defense/co-op party game “Bish Bash Bots“, is now available for PC (via Steam) and consoles (PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch).

“Bish Bash Bots” is bringing the mayhem and madness of Overcooked, arcade brawling and strategic tower defense, all lovingly crafted for couch co-op fans. Prepare to team up in couch co-op / online play or go it alone to save the world.

In a cartoony take on a future where machines have stolen technology from humans and are turning it against them, a team of unlikely heroes set out on a grand adventure to reset the rogue robots and save the world. With 8 vibrant and colourful biomes across 32 levels, players will have to contend with a variety of hazards such as turrets overheating in the Volcano biome, or the dangerous flora of the overgrown Jungle where mutant plants may snatch you and your friends up!
Perfect for playing with friends locally or online, with 1 – 4 players supported, Bish Bash Bots is a co-op party game that merges the strategic planning of tower defense with the immediacy of fun and frantic brawling that sees you and your buddies smashing rogue robots across the battlefield. Build upgradable turrets, unlock gadgets and bash bots with giant hammers. An array of turrets and gadgets will allow you to mix up your strategy as you come face to face with unique robots that can be pushed, shoved and even bashed down holes!

“Bish Bash Bots fuses the fun chaos of co-op multiplayer with tower defense strategy. Build towers and bash bots with friends, family or in single player,” said James Letherby, co-founder of CATASTROPHIC_OVERLOAD.

“We are so proud to be releasing our second game today with Firestoke on PC, PlayStation, Xbox and Switch and hope you have many hours of bot bashin’ fun!”
