What is PERATO?

A wild action game about vegetables with guns. Each wave is 20 seconds of chaos, then a shop, then more chaos. Keep going until you โ€” or the screen โ€” explode.

โš”๏ธ

Hundreds of builds

From a minigun hedgehog to a wizard-potato with six staves. Every run is a new ridiculous setup.

๐ŸŒ

Online co-op

Up to 4 players online. Shared shop, shared loot, shared death. Late-night runs with friends included.

๐Ÿ†

PvP arena

Brand-new mode: build your loadout, then cross barrels with other players in 1v1 and 2v2 arenas.

๐Ÿ“…

Daily challenges

Every day: a fresh seed, shared modifiers and a global leaderboard. Prove your potato is the king.

๐ŸŽจ

Pixel style

Readable pixel art, chunky VFX and tight game feel. Runs on pretty much anything.

๐Ÿงช

Mod support

Mod support out of the box: custom characters, items and enemies. The community is already cooking.

โ˜… Headline feature

The online mode the
genre was missing

You loved Brotato, but every run was solo? PERATO ships the arena online. No shared-screen hacks: honest netcode, rollback sync and low-latency lobbies.

  • โœ” Drop-in / drop-out โ€” a friend can join mid-run
  • โœ” PvP arenas: 1v1, 2v2, FFA up to 6 players
  • โœ” Private lobbies and public matchmaking
  • โœ” Voice chat and pings right on the arena

Pick your veggie

Every hero has unique stats, a starter weapon and a passive that reshapes your entire playstyle.

Spudo

Starter ยท Balanced

The classic potato. Great pick for newcomers and a solid team anchor.

Tomarro

DPS ยท Crits

Squishy but hits like a truck. Every crit heals 2 HP โ€” live by the crit, die by the crit.

Cucurwin

Tank ยท Dash

Tons of HP, a long dash and a shield. Soaks aggro while the team cleans up the wave.

Carrotica

Support ยท Online-only

Buffs allies in a radius. Playable solo, but truly shines in co-op.

Trailer

30 seconds of chaos โ€” and you'll get it.

FAQ

Is this a Brotato clone?

PERATO is inspired by Brotato and the arena-shooter roguelike genre. But our focus is different: full online co-op and PvP, our own build mechanics, and meta-progression between runs.

Which platforms?

GameJolt first (Windows, Linux). More stores and consoles โ€” after v1.0 if the game takes off.

How much will it cost?

We're aiming for $9.99 in Early Access and $12.99 at full release. EA buyers get the full version and all updates for free.

Is there cross-play?

All builds use the same master server, so you can play together regardless of where you grabbed the game from.

What about localization?

English, Russian, Spanish, German, Brazilian Portuguese, Simplified Chinese and Japanese โ€” at v1.0.
