Lober Lobe

Lober Lobe is a brain-centric shoot ’em up with procedurally generated bullet-hell stages. You fight enemy swarms, clear dangerous neuronal protein buildup to maintain your run, shoot psychic orbs and collect useful thoughts. You can upgrade your Probe’s speed, maneuverability, satellites and resistance, and suppress negative thoughts.

Playable Probes

There are 12 playable Probes, each with its own shooting attacks and movement and maneuverability stats. Two are available as starters; the other 10 unlock through gameplay.

Stages and modes

The game has six stage environments, each with its own environmental threats and a specified boss. Enemies and terrain are randomized on every playthrough. In Probe Campaign Mode, you play through the stages in sequence and defeat each stage’s boss.

In Continuous Marathon Mode, you choose from the six stages and try to last as long as possible through point-based, endless waves with exponentially increasing progression. Clear wave after wave as the pace gets faster.

Difficulty and style

Easy Mode has manageable speed and minimal threats; Normal Mode balances speed and challenge with more threats; Hard Mode brings high speed and the most threats. The game also includes catchy tunes, old-school-inspired sound design and a bonus Retro Graphic Style Mode that changes the look of the stages and various sprites.
