Robot Arena Survivors players, how cool would it be to have new ways to customise your very own Hover Tank Unit in-game? 👀

A red hover tank unit concept for the game Robot Arena Survivors, with a lot of deadly weapons attached such as auto cannons and saw blades.

When sharing progress on an indie game but there’s nothing concrete to show…
Is it better to add an AI-generated image to dress up the post
or just post without visuals, even if it feels a bit empty?

Yeah, I get your point. I’m solo, so I sometimes use AI just to dress up posts when I don’t have anything solid to show. The game itself has no AI in it, everything’s done by me. Just doing what I can on my own.
