Peeing robot?

I don’t know where to take the game from here… Help?
So we got the basic engine going. Cool.
But we don’t know where to take the game from here. We can’t see how it would fit the “alone” theme very well and we can’t think of anything fun at the moment.
Here’s a screeny:

So at the moment, you’re a little robot that can run around, jump and shoot sideways and up and down.
There are 5 different weapon types, each with different properties.
At first we thought we would take this in a direction of “last robot on earth” but we lost interest pretty fast.
So now we’ve got this engine lying around, and we don’t know what to do with it.
Help?

I thought the “last robot on earth” idea was pretty good. Maybe all the other robots were turned off and then all the humans died, and you have to wake up all the robots, so robots will replace humans or something. Still…

How about he returns home and no-one is there, so he has to work out why he is alone? Or maybe he crash lands on a planet, and is all alone, by himself? Enemies could still be there, but he’d be “alone” in the sense that he has no little robot friends D:

I’d say you just have to be creative, and you definitely don’t need to have the game revolve entirely around the theme. Maybe you could have the story relate to the theme, and the gameplay might not so much?
Here’s a video!

Almost finished!
We’re so close, just adding an ending 😛
Results soon!!
5 hours left ’til judging ends, super excited!
Almost all of the games I’ve played were wonderful and I’ve rated with an average of four stars. I bet there are going to be plenty of ties!
Heck, maybe even our game might make it into the Top 50 with a tie like last time :O
Anyway, good luck to y’all and I hope you had fun!
Remember me?

Tip: DON’T vote up shallow themes!
Let’s narrow down our selection of themes to be more unique! Generic, shallow themes like “monsters”, “good VS evil”, “mouse only” and “normal” are BAD THEMES!
When you vote on a theme, first think “what game would I be able to make with this theme? how much time would I need to spend on thinking the concept through?”
And only then vote.
Let’s make this Ludum Dare special!
Vote on themes here.
We’re in!
We’re in!
Same tools, same guys!
Progress
Even more progress
All player units are complete!!!
I’ll try to make a video today!
Storytime
And finally, a menu
As the game nears completion, I’m working on fixing more and more bugs and polishing it up.
Unfortunately for us, I made an irreversible mistake while writing the engine which resulted in very poor pathfinding for the AIs.
Still, we managed to make a mini-starcraft out of it, and our musician Simonas managed to make the game much more lively.
Also, sorry for not uploading a progress video like I always do!! I’ll make a trailer though 
P.S
Experiment: Castle Castle CO-OP
So I decided to take upon myself a challenge today: make my old Warmup game, Castle-Castle, multiplayer co-op.
