Same here, android, unable to figure out how to place a bot. Everything that made sense (select robot, tap in arena, tap bottom bot name and tap arena. Even double tapping didnt work. Gave up too.

Update. Got two bots (at least based on count), I have no clue how, started fight, but there is nothing to be seen, just black background. Battle finished and again everything black except the menues.

I am fan of bot wars and would love to play it, but this is just too frustrating to use.

Thank you too for the feedback! Would you mind either sharing the following or submitting a bug directly through the game? If you'd like to share this outside of the game but still privately, my Discord ID is Adam13531#3531.

• What device are you on?

• Are you using the app or the site?

• If you're on the site, what browser are you using, and have you pinned the site to your home screen, or is the URL bar showing?

• What OS version are you on?

The mobile versions of the game are thin wrappers around the web version (https://play.bot.land/), and there weren't very many mobile users before launch, so bugs certainly made it through the testing process.

Yeah I suspected it is just a web game. I am so sorry you have decided to make it web based. I have webgl disabled as it is common for websites to use it for fingerprinting and I will not enable it.
