Demiurge Studios (Borderlands, Mass Effect) teamed up with Owlchemy Labs (Snuggle Truck, Jack Lumber) to announce that the Android version of Shoot Many Robots is now available for free on Google Play. Originally released in March 2012 for Xbox Live Arcade (XBLA) and the PlayStation Network (PSN), Shoot Many Robots came out a month later on PC, via Steam, and should be released on iOS soon.

Shoot Many Robots is an endless gunner, with plenty of fun gameplay, putting protagonist P. Walter Tugnut (the P stands for pickles, we’ve been told) up against a metric butt load of chainsaw-wielding robots. Hence the title.

You’ll get to play as Tugnut, who’s been stockpiling guns, ammo, and beer, waiting for the robot apocalypse. Once he’s shoved unceremoniously out of his RV, he barrels his way through farmlands and oil fields, switching lanes to avoid obstacles, picking up nuts, and blasting robots all along his merry way. You’ll build up an arsenal of weapons, including flamethrowers, rocket launchers, and freeze rays. Plus? You can earn ridiculous hats, each with a special ability. Yay, hats!
