Some slightly buggy collisions with walls at points, but otherwise an enjoyable, short distraction! I love the art style you've got going there.

The visual stlye was unique, and cohesive enough to hold itself together nicely. I found the amount of backtracking very tedious indeed, and the collision + the way you stopped upon changing scene were a little frustrating too.

Nice little metroidvania! I played it through to (I think) the end.

Simple yet effective :)

I couldn't get past the first teleporter : I picked all the 4 or 5 first parts, got to the teleporter near the entrance, and arrived in a room full of items. Then nothing happened (no player, no msg). Is it a bug ?

Cool little game! the wall collisions could make a decent feature. Also, do I win when I get to the room with many powerups?

Oh hey! Sorry lads, the collision is quite crappy, i have to learn to use game maker better Haha!

Oh yeah the last room means you've won the game. I should have had a better ending there like showing a cycle how the "failbots" are created and pieces re-used for other purposes. I have to schedule my flights better next time haha. :D

I'm very glad to hear you managed to enjoy the unfinished game still. :)

Quite nice little game there.
The collision sometimes seems buggy (walls to the right make me bounce back). There was also a bit too much back and forth for my taste. Still, quite solid game.
The graphic looks pretty unique.

Loving the artwork, wish you did a time lapse of it :P

Backtracking was a little painful, since all the environments are so similar, and there's no variety (go left grab item, go right, grab item, go left, repeat).

Nice little platformer though :P

Lovely art style, minus the collision problems it was pretty good :D
