About Goobies
Goobies is a top‑down auto‑shooter that blends roguelike progression with endless wave combat. Players face giant bosses and swarms of blobs across procedurally generated levels that grow harder as runs continue. A roster of five distinct Goobies provides unique passive abilities, while over thirty items and up to twenty artifacts offer deep customization. Progress is tracked with Goobie coins and an in‑game encyclopedia that expands the game’s lore.

Gameplay Loop
Each run pits you against waves of enemies, including giant bosses and swarms of blobs. The auto-shooter format lets you focus on positioning as difficulty increases. Coins collected during runs unlock more power. Separately, the in-game encyclopedia records progress and provides lore.
- Observe how enemy patterns shift as difficulty rises to better time your movements.
- Compare coin yields between runs to gauge which champions or items improve efficiency.

Champions
The game offers five Goobies, each defined by a unique passive ability that shapes playstyle. Selecting a champion influences how items and artifacts interact during a run. Because passives differ, experimenting with each Goobie reveals distinct strategic approaches, encouraging multiple playthroughs to discover preferred tactics.
- Try each champion to see which passive complements your favorite item combos.
- Note how certain passives affect boss survivability versus swarm handling.

Items & Artifacts
Over thirty items can be collected, many featuring multiple unique upgrades that modify their effects. In addition, up to twenty artifacts dramatically alter mechanics and visuals, providing game‑changing options. The combination of items and artifacts creates a large pool of possible builds, making each run feel fresh and encouraging experimentation.
- Track which item upgrades synergize with specific artifacts for stronger builds.
- Mix and match items early in a run to discover unexpected interactions.

Procedural Levels
The game uses procedurally generated levels and increases difficulty as you progress. Adapt to the levels you encounter and observe how the challenge changes during a run.
- Stay flexible; a strategy that works on one layout may need adjustment on the next.
- Watch the enemies you encounter as the difficulty increases.
05 / THE GUIDE
Progression & Encyclopedia
Coins collected during each run can be used to unlock more power, adding progression alongside the repeated wave-based battles. The encyclopedia records your progress and offers a way to learn the game’s lore.
- Review encyclopedia entries to follow your recorded progress and learn the lore.
- Prioritize coin collection if unlocking new power feels more rewarding than immediate combat success.
