Metal Bringer

Metal Bringer is a roguelike action-adventure in which you control humanoid android soldiers called Labor and giant machines called Arms. Suria, a young girl, wakes in a laboratory after being kept in cryosleep for 1,000 years without her knowledge. She builds Labor with the help of her Buds and sends them to search for the rest of humanity.

A world underground

Humanity has taken refuge underground, and no one alive has ever seen a blue sky. Suria is trapped in a small, lifeless room deep below, wondering how long she has been there. She recalls a fairy tale about a virtual reality called Rudra and words describing an infinitely high, vast blue sky.

Customize Labor and Arms

You can build and control Labor or have them pilot Arms. Both are highly customizable: change the colors and appearance of their features, or swap parts to alter their fighting styles.

Strengthen your Labor

Labor can use different types of apps to become stronger. You obtain app disks by defeating enemies, but lose all installed apps when you fall in battle. By analyzing an app's data, you can make it available when customizing your next Labor, improving your options over successive runs.

Adapt your Arms

Arms wear down, but you can use parts left behind by enemies to replace their equipment. Analyzing blueprints for powerful Arms parts over the course of the game unlocks further customization options, letting you find gear that suits you and build your preferred mech.

Art and music

The game uses the retro art style of Samurai Bringer and a real-time pixel-art generation system. It also features ray tracing for lighting, while its music plays in real time and changes according to the situation.
