A downloadable game

BotBoy!64
Best played in the Ares emulator.



You follow BotBoy on a quest to fix up the abandoned strip mine which has been run down by rogue AI. In the process, BotBoy damages himself and loses limbs in a fall, forcing him to  traverse across a hostile world to find his missing body parts in order to continue on his journey. Guide what remains of BotBoy through poison fields, mesmerizing caves, sky-high fortresses, and molten lava pits as he literally puts himself back together. 
Can you help BotBoy repair himself? 

Bolts are scattered throughout every level—some in plain sight, others deviously hidden.
Golden Screws are the ultimate prize for completionists.

Works best in the Ares emulator, but can be played on a real N64 on a flash cart.

How well does it work on real Hardware?

Howdy! It has a few crashes on real hardware, but we'll be polishing the game up after a quick break. 
For now, best to play in Ares for no crashing. Thanks for playing!
