Too easy. I was bored after 244 seconds and did let the player suicide.
I like the main character.
The music is ok.

Doesn't run on my system. :( The screenshots look very nice though.

crowbeak 2013-08-26 09:34

I enjoyed this once I figured it out. The game over message is delightful. :D

Need more things to do to be funny : another gameplay brick, or a better level design. The character is funny and the music is nice.

Failed to start: not a valid win32 application
32 bit Windows XP

I would put tha character closer to the left edge of the screen.Gives the player more time to think.

andrewves 2013-08-26 09:38

Great visuals but the gameplay is a little simple. I also think the movement speed is a bit slow. Good attempt.

I love your art and music, the art is a really cool kind of surreal and the music sounds like early 70's techno

tiffi 2013-08-26 09:41

Loved the background and the player sprite

hypnohustla 2013-08-26 09:56

It looks very nice. I loved the character. Maybe it needs some additional game mechanic to keep the player interested? Solid work though.

Nice game, fab graphics!

vrld 2013-08-26 13:44

Fun game, great graphics and a cool soundtrack.

acrimiens 2013-08-26 14:20

Lovely character!

raggy 2013-08-26 14:35

Loved the visuals!

leafo 2013-08-26 17:06

Cool graphics, cool idea. I wish there was some more variation.

bradleysmith 2013-08-26 22:08

Really nice visuals and aesthetic you have going. I made a game about a robot too. :)

zuige 2013-08-26 22:10

Nice visuals but not very much to play here. Also, there's no way to reset game?

sasoridama 2013-08-26 22:12

Nice looking game. It was kind of hard to see the batteries so you could pick them up. Good animations and backgrounds too.

triplevisiongames 2013-08-27 18:54

I like the graphics (particularly the robot and the that background you've done is awesome) and LOVE the music like I think it's the best so far or close to it! Controls are a little bit frustrating, could do with working on the game feel in the post jam version and adding variety and difficulty to it.

khaotom 2013-08-28 00:26

That's a pretty awesome robot.

_alts 2013-08-28 04:23

Mechanically very simple. I really live what you're doing with the blend modes in the background. It looks really nice.

crowbeak 2013-08-29 12:25

I was streaming when I played your game: http://www.twitch.tv/crowbeak/c/2837159

Great Aesthetic overall. Would have liked the player to be closer to the left and faster as well. BTW, walking left also makes the number flip.

muciojadpl 2013-08-29 15:51

Not bad. I like the main character, it's very pleasure. In the long run gets a bit boring, but like a 48 hours work is quite not bad :) ++ for good graphic style!

paperblurt 2013-08-30 12:20

real nice graphics. are you from sweden too Linus?

headchant 2013-08-31 11:19

Not a fan of the controls/physics in this one. Great graphics and ambience though.

georgebroussard 2013-08-31 19:45

Nice art. Agree with others on the movement speed, etc. Just didn't feel right. Some places where you can't avoid a red dot. But, a very nice effort for 48 hrs and a nice base to build on. Keep going! Polish and add to it.

jellycakes 2013-09-01 18:09

Really cool, like the aesthetics in the background, and the whole game kind of gives me machinarium vibes. Nice to play, a little frustrating when the character slows down however it still becomes enjoyable when the acceleration works in your favour. Good job on this.

jupiter_hadley 2013-09-02 22:32

Love the graphics and the game itself is pretty awesome. I featured it in my LD27 compilation video series, if you'd like to check it out :), http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W1OMEshCeQ0

connors 2013-09-04 06:23

I like the graphics, but that's pretty much the only thing I liked very much, it kind of drags on and it's really easy once you figure out how it works.. The music was just okay. So.. Thumbs up for graphics. I guess I'm going with the majority opinion here.

jools64 2013-09-04 13:10

This game has awesome graphics. I really like the details like the number on the character's face actually moving around. Unfortunately the game-play was a little uninteresting. Just collecting white orbs and avoiding red orbs got pretty repetitive.

All the same, great work. I loved the aesthetic!

saschanarr 2013-09-04 15:28

Cute graphics, but not that interesting a concept. Powerups were kind of hard to make out.

gaspard_ 2013-09-05 17:08

Liked the graphics, but gameplay is a bit empty...
Nice Game over message!

gmaker 2013-09-05 17:21

loved art!! nice music very retro! great job!

lonelytimelord 2013-09-05 18:03

Nice visuals, simple controls, pretty nice

colapsydo 2013-09-06 09:42

The character and the background are wonderfull, it create a unique atmosphere. However I found really hard the way the hero just stop when you are not pushing the key anymore. With more fluidity it could be even more fun.
Is there an end ? I went till 266 seconds but the landscape was still changing.

reyn 2013-09-06 15:45

I never knew carpets made tvs slow down that much ;-) The robot was too close to the right edge of the screen for me, that did make the game a lot more intense though.

linuus 2013-09-06 19:37

@Colapsydo: There is no end but you can reach a point where it will run out of new objects in the background and there will just be empty sky :P

vile-smile 2013-09-12 23:50

It felt like I was running through molasses. The music was pretty good and the visuals were pretty good.

kirbytails7 2013-09-14 18:53

Not great gameplay-wise, but I like the backgrounds.
