Robot Camping

Robot Camping is an isometric 3D survival and camp-defense game where you play as a robot stranded on a mysterious island that grows larger with each passing day.

Features

• Expanding Procedural Island — Start on a tiny island that grows each day. New terrain, trees, enemies, loot, beaches, and underwater zones reveal themselves over time.

• Day/Night Runs — Explore, gather, fight, and return to the campfire to advance with a cinematic day transition.
• Persistent Browser Save — The game autosaves locally in your browser profile, including your day, resources, player position, world state, followers, camp structures, and placed defenses.

• Camp Defense — Enemies can attack the camp zone, damage barricades, sentries, tents, and eventually the campfire. If the fire goes out, the run is lost.
• Movable Defenses — Pick up and place sentries and barricades inside the camp rock circle. Placement is saved, and invalid spots show a clear red marker.

• Repairable Camp — Destroyed tents, barricades, and sentries can be repaired with resources. The camp has a combined HP bar so you can see how close it is to collapsing.
• Friendly Camp NPCs — Campers and traders live around the fire. NPCs can weakly fight back during attacks, and traders let you exchange wood, gold, and bones.
• 60+ Upgradable Skills across Movement, Combat, Defense, Followers, Gathering, Economy, Nature, and Engineering categories.

• 36 Weapons — Purchase melee and ranged weapons from the upgrade shop, from simple swords and bows to strange nature-powered gear.
• Follower System — Defeated enemies can become allies that fight alongside you. Upgrade follower count, damage, speed, healing, teleporting, sacrifice revival, and shared-damage defenses.
• Prestige System — After Day 10, reset to Day 1 with a permanent +10% stat bonus. Stack prestiges for bigger long-term runs.
• Underwater World — Explore the sea floor with coral, seaweed, sharks, turtles, and fish schools.

• Growing Threat — Enemy pressure, tree density, and grass coverage scale with each new day. Camp attackers ramp up slowly so the first days stay readable while later days get dangerous.
• Enemy Variety — Fight goblins, skeletons, wolves, bears, special enemy types, ranged attackers, and a later-game dragon boss.

• Procedural Terrain — Noise-based island with organic coastline, beach zones, shallow sea, and a deep trench boundary.
• Player Health — Take damage from enemies, upgrade max HP and auto-repair regen through skills, and build toward emergency shields, thorns, dodge, lifesteal, and follower sacrifice.
• Compact Upgrade UI — Browse skills and weapons with categorized upgrade cards, hover/touch details, 3D previews, reset options, and a persistent resource wallet.
• Mobile Support — Virtual joystick, touch buttons, pinch-to-zoom. Same UI works on desktop and mobile.
• 3D UI Icons — Skill nodes, weapon previews, and resource counters rendered as interactive 3D models.
• Stylized Look — Posterization and dark outlines give the island a readable low-poly adventure style.
• WebGPU Renderer — Powered by Three.js with WebGPU for modern GPU performance.

Multiplayer

note: using free tier backend so if hiscores down = reached free limit

Robot Camping features asynchronous ghost multiplayer. Other players exploring the same day appear as translucent ghost robots on your island.

• Ghost Players — See other players roaming the same day in real time as glowing, translucent robots.
• No Interference — Ghosts are visual only. They can't attack your enemies, collect your loot, or interact with your world.
• Shared World — Since island layout is deterministic per day, every player on the same day sees the same terrain, trees, and enemy placements.
• Automatic Connection — Multiplayer connects automatically. No lobbies, no friend codes. Just play and see who else is out there.
• Low Latency — Position data syncs at 10 Hz with smooth client-side interpolation for fluid ghost movement.
• High Scores — Check the camp notice board for score and run progress tracking.
