In an engaging co-op session, Julian Gollop, the CEO of Snapshot Games and the creator of XCOM, showcased his latest real-time strategy game, Chip n’ Claws vs. The Brainioids. Players collect resources, construct buildings, and command robot minions to combat an alien threat. Unique features include third-person perspective, split-screen couch co-op, and a mix of ranged and melee combat, alongside platforming elements.
As players control Claws, a robot cat, they team up with Gollop’s character, Chip, maneuvering through maps using a hoverbike and special abilities like rocket packs to access high areas and gather blueprints. Strategic planning, such as building troop spawners near defensive structures, is essential for success against the alien menace.
