Summary
OTTOBOX: Patch or Perish, Automox's first video game, started as one question at a creative retreat. Creative Director John asked Senior Brand Manager Jonah Phillips what single project he would build if he could do anything. That question turned into a playable release aimed at Halloween 2025. You play as the Automox mascot, Otto, fighting villains that each stand in for a real IT challenge, from Chaos Chronicler, a skeletal River Styx ferryman who serves as a boss battle, to Doctor Deadline. Phillips composed the soundtrack himself using synthesizers that emulate the sound chips of late-1980s and early-1990s consoles, building Otto's theme in three escalating stages from calm to full combat.
