A robot roguelike where your body is a loadout that keeps being shot off.
Cogmind belongs in the roguelike conversation because players rebuild themselves from salvaged parts, manage heat and propulsion, choose stealth or combat, and adapt as limbs and weapons vanish. The run structure is what matters: it asks players to build a plan under uncertainty, then live with the consequences when the run turns ugly.
Example
players rebuild themselves from salvaged parts, manage heat and propulsion, choose stealth or combat, and adapt as limbs and weapons vanish
Why it matters
Cogmind matters because it turns equipment durability into identity. The build is not just selected; it is physically damaged and replaced during the run.
