Ready to Code Your Victory?
At ASSIST Software, we believe in the transformative power of code to create immersive and intelligent experiences. That's why we are excited to announce the Alpha launch of Typhon: Bot vs. Bot. In this groundbreaking tactical strategy game, your Python scripts don't just control characters; they decide survival and dominance on the battlefield.
On Steam for Windows, Typhon is more than a sci-fi game: it’s a programmable arena where your code is your ultimate strategic weapon. With the Alpha phase officially underway, we invite developers, programmers, and gamers alike to join this unique opportunity to explore, experiment, and shape the evolving future of Typhon
A Game for Coders, by Coders
Unlike traditional games where bots serve as enemies you aim to defeat or avoid, Typhon turns bots into the centerpiece of gameplay. Developed by Brightshade Games in close collaboration with ASSIST Software’s Interactive Technologies Department, the game challenges players to program autonomous bots using Python.

From PvE missions to asynchronous PvP battles, every line of code you write directly impacts your bot’s tactics, adaptability, and whether it thrives—or falls—in the warzone. Here, logical thinking, coding skills, and tactical creativity converge to create gameplay unlike anything else available on the market.
The Alpha Is Your Chance to Shape the Battlefield
The Alpha phase marks the game’s first public testing stage, and Typhon is still evolving rapidly. While final results and gameplay balance are a work in progress, this phase offers an incredible opportunity for early adopters to engage directly with the development team and influence key elements of the game’s future.
As an Alpha tester, your experience and feedback will help refine everything from the in-game Python code editor and bot AI behavior to mission design and user interface. Our goal is to build Typhon iteratively and collaboratively, and your input will be crucial in crafting a polished, engaging experience.
We invite developers of all levels—seasoned professionals, students, and hobbyists—to join this exciting stage. Whether your interest lies in AI logic, game design, or simply innovative programming challenges, Typhon provides a dynamic testing ground for your skills.
ASSIST Software’s Role in Engineering Complex Interactive Systems
Behind Typhon’s intricate design stands ASSIST Software’s deep expertise in simulation, real-time environments, and intelligent user interfaces. Our Interactive Technologies Department excels at integrating cutting-edge technical knowledge into projects like this, leveraging years of experience across game engines like Unity and Unreal and legacy systems.
Key challenges our team tackles include:
- Creating reactive game worlds where time manipulation—such as loops or accelerations—impacts strategy and physics.
- Architecting simulation logic that dynamically responds to unpredictable player-coded behaviors.
- Ensuring seamless interoperability between user-written Python scripts and complex in-game physics.
Design scalable backend systems that support Typhon’s long-term evolution and expanding features.
These technical complexities require a multidisciplinary approach, and through our partnership with Brightshade Games, ASSIST Software is at the forefront of pushing how programmable gameplay can extend beyond traditional boundaries.
