Diode Arena
Steam
Diode Arena is a game where you build your own vehicles known as “bots” with various movement types and weapons to battle against AI or other online players. You can fight in a free-for-all, or play as a team! Earn cash and vouchers by playing online and use them to unlock and buy new weapons, skins, and other technologies. Use your earnings to build bigger, better, stronger bots and gain the upper hand in the next battle! Diode Arena is designed to be enjoyed casually and competitively. Join your friends and play in teams of 5 to 8 people.


You will have to be creative and clever when designing your bots. Movement parts such as wheels, wings and hover blades need to be built with redundancy in mind, as parts can get shot off during the course of a battle. Bots may be built block by block, but will be stronger, and more intricate, when you use advanced build plates. Each bot is centered on a core which has limited HP and must be protected. Any part that is disconnected from the core will be lost instantly, so multiple strong connections are needed for an optimal design.
