OttoMatic is a video game developed by Pangea Software and published by Aspyr Media. The game was released in 2001, and soon afterward bundled with certain newly-released computers. The game was the first Pangea game to be published by a company other than Pangea itself. It is noticeably similar to many of Pangea's other titles, and bears the greatest resemblance to Bugdom. Otto Matic's graphics and gameplay will be easily recognizable to any gamer who has already played Bugdom. It also contains elements used in Pangea's first major game success, Nanosaur.

Here he will have to defeat brain aliens, slime springers, flamester enemies, ice enemies, and car-bots. Then he will have to escape the planet from a flying saucer frozen in ice.
