CaveBots is an RTS where you build your base and repel the attacks. It's an indirect-control game: your units are automated; you can only control the flagship.
Quick how to:
Start by digging a green block with a Harvester in it
Find a hard terrain block and dig it
Build a Generator on that hard terrain block
Try to get a Patrol bot or build a Turret to defend yourself
It's free sailing from here
