Robonauts is one of the most fun games I have ever played on the Switch. It is very accessible, vibrant, and great for gamers of all skill sets. Also, its character designs are really fascinating and, in some cases, adorable at the same time.

Under its early bird sale price, Robonauts is one that you should pick up. The developers should consider retaining its initial price point as it looks to stand out in a sea of quality Switch indie titles hitting the system at the moment, but if you do want that hard-hitting, swear-inducing arcade shooter that just about everyone loves, you'd be doing yourself a favour in checking Robonauts out.

Easy and fun shooter with well designed levels. Can be beat by just holding down the fire-button and jumping around. Score and level time are an incentive to have a closer look at the mechanics — mostly when and what weapon upgrade to pick up, and when to preserve special bullets. Voice acting sounds horrible, the game would have been better without. Can be skipped, so no deal breaker.

Robonauts is a funny arcade shooter game to play. Make your way through galaxy by killing aliens with different kind of skill. The gameplay is feel nice and different specially when you go upside down to another planet. level are short but kind of fun. the best thing with this game is the captivating electronic music and 2D colorful graphic. This is definitely a good arcade game to get !

What Robonauts lacks in charisma and story-telling it more than makes up with its gameplay. Intense, fast paced and with a demanding difficulty level, Robonauts will keep players close to it for a long time and its recipe of adding platforming action to a shoot and run game works like a charm.

Robonauts was a fun game with some glaring faults. As a single-player game, it really isn't that strong. The mechanics shine but it lacks a meaty experience to enjoy. Where it makes up for this deficiency is in its multiplayer offerings, which provide a lot of excitement. It changes up the campaign maps in a significant matter as well as offering a fun time anywhere you are. If you are up for that, then Robonauts could be the experience you’re looking for.

Robonauts reworks the conventions of a classic arcade shooter by pairing the timeless genre with basic platform game action. The pick up and play nature also remains intact. With two difficulties and some challenging objectives, this game is no pushover. Unfortunately, one shortcoming of arcade shooters is often the repetition that comes with eliminating wave after wave of enemies, and Robonauts is not exempt from this. Still, it is a well-crafted Nintendo Switch eShop game that could provide fun play sessions in-between bigger releases, and even a new co-op experience for family and friends.

Robonauts is a game that knows precisely what it is: a classic arcade-inspired shooter with unique mechanics to keep it fresh.

Early on Robonauts is a nice little blaster, but a rote mission structure and a headache inducing core mechanic let it down.

La música es genial y las visuales de los escenarios también, pero le falta mas contenido, le faltan jefes, más variedad de enemigos y armas, y un verdadero jefe final, OK.

Neat little shooter. It was free for a while, so I decided to check it out, and it's good fun! Played it solo, but you're better off with a friend.

UNBELIEVABLY awful voiceover robot butler talks in between levels at disproportionately loud volume and sounds incredibly distorted (like as though the source sound files are trash). Also, bad difficulty spike that made it unfun for me and my son. Otherwise, cool graphics, music, and overall gameplay. Really wanted to like it.

This game feels like it was just slapped together and they said "gud nuff." It feels half *****.
