About Bumpsters
Bumpsters is a roguelike auto battler where your team of little monsters fights by bouncing around an arena and slamming into the other side. You build the squad, then step back and let the collisions decide it.
Each run starts with 50 coins and a shop. Spend them on new bumpsters, give your team quirks or raise their stats, then send them in. A fight runs three to five rounds against other bumpsters, and each round lasts until only one team is still standing.
Win more rounds than you lose and you move on to the next fight, with 10 coins for every win to spend in the shop before it starts. Runs take a few minutes, and you can play Bumpsters online right here in your browser.
How to Play Bumpsters
- Click Start on the title screen, then use the mouse to shop.
- Spend your 50 starting coins on bumpsters, quirks or stat upgrades.
- Send your team into the fight and watch them bounce and collide.
- Win more rounds than you lose to advance to the next fight.
- Collect 10 coins per win and shop again before the next fight.
- Keep reshaping your team from one fight to the next.
What to Expect in Bumpsters
Bumpsters is a game of setup and spectacle. Every decision happens in the shop, and then the physics takes over. Creatures ricochet off each other, and something as small as one extra quirk can swing a round. That mix of planning and pinball-style chaos is what makes it fun to watch.
The art is bright and cartoony, with chunky creatures on a grassy arena. Since you watch the fights rather than steer them, it has an easygoing, idle feel for an auto battler. You can play Bumpsters free and fit a full run into a short break.
Tips for Bumpsters
- Do not spend every coin on new bumpsters. A smaller team with better stats can hold up longer.
- Try quirks early so you learn what each one does before you build around it.
- Watch the first round closely. Seeing who gets knocked around tells you what to buy next.
- Use the 10 coins from each win to patch your team's weakest spot.
- Remember you only need to win more rounds than you lose, so one bad round is not the end of a fight.

Bumpsters was made by Fáyer, Fenomeno, who released it on itch.io. It was built in Godot, and its bouncing combat takes its idea from snakesandrews' Horse Race Tests.

FAQ
Is Bumpsters free?
Yes. Bumpsters is free to play on FunClicker, right in your browser, with no download and no account. Click Start, spend your first 50 coins in the shop and your team is ready for its first fight. A run takes a few minutes, so it's easy to squeeze in during a break.
How do you play Bumpsters?
Each run opens with 50 coins and a shop. Use them to recruit bumpsters, give them quirks or raise their stats. Then your team fights other bumpsters on its own, bouncing around and hitting each other until one side is left. Win more rounds than you lose to advance, and earn 10 coins per win.
What is the goal of Bumpsters?
The goal is to build a team that keeps winning fight after fight. Each fight is three to five rounds, and you move on by winning more rounds than you lose. Every run begins with the same 50 coins, so the challenge is making smart shop choices with the little you have.
Who made Bumpsters?
Bumpsters was made by Fáyer and Fenomeno, who released it on itch.io. They built it in Godot, and the bouncing combat was inspired by snakesandrews' Horse Race Tests. FunClicker embeds their own web build, and the Who Made section above links to the original game.
Can I play Bumpsters on a Chromebook or phone?
A Chromebook works well, since Bumpsters runs in a normal browser tab and the shop only needs clicks. A phone may load it, but the game is made for a desktop browser and the buttons can feel small on a phone screen. A laptop or desktop is the most comfortable way to play.
Is Bumpsters unblocked at school?
Bumpsters unblocked access depends on your school's network. The game needs only a browser tab, with nothing to install, but whether it opens is up to the network's filters, which we do not control. If FunClicker loads for you, the game should load too.
Do you control the fights in Bumpsters?
No. Bumpsters is an auto battler, so the fights play out by themselves. Your creatures bounce around the arena and crash into the other team until only one side remains. All of your influence comes before the fight, in the shop, where you choose which bumpsters, quirks and stat upgrades to buy.
How long is a run of Bumpsters?
A run of Bumpsters takes a few minutes. Each fight is three to five quick rounds, with a shop visit between fights, so the pace stays brisk. That makes it a good fit for short breaks, and it's easy to start another run straight away if the last team fell apart.
