It feels either like the level is too long or that it needs checkpoints of some description. The audio could do with some music.

I really like it! Pretty nice take on the theme. I like how the level design felt a bit open. Great character design and animation, particularly given the time constraints. I like how the character design reflected the abilities I was acquiring. Amazing job!

Loved it. Good pacing of introducing mechanics, stayed interesting through to the end.

It was funny and a good idea! Maybe it would be great to increase gravity a bit and change the background tiles to make the help more readable. Good one!

Really nice game, and the oversized level didnt bother me, castlevania symphony of the night is like that. nice job.

Haha I love the dopey look and animation of the robot, adds a lot of personality.

Loved it; short and fun. Nice little project!

This is really neat! very consistent mechanics and very nice graphics! I missed some music though

Congratulations! :D

Nice job, even though the relation to the theme was a bit tight. There's a good feeling of evolution of the character though!

Good job !

I really liked the "flow" of the game. The pace, difficulty and new body parts made the game never boring. I was into it until the very end, was it definitely worth playing.

The physics are strange sometimes. You either go left or right at a fixed speed depending on the last key you pressed (or none if you touched the ground). A little more "acceleration"-like movement could have been better. (Hard to control and feels unnatural).

The graphics are cool. I like the "clean" aspect of the scene (although the floor-tiles feels awkward to me), and the swaggy many different hand-drawn animations.

Not a bad little game. The pace at which you get the new body parts is good. Music would have been a nice addition but not having it doesn't hurt the game. Well Done!

It was a decent platformer, but it'd probably be better to just give the player regenerating fuel - it seemed a bit weird to have infinite flight since it removed the need for the platform shooting (which had more potential for interesting puzzles imo). The sound effect for the flying was really annoying too, because it just played a single explosion on a loop instead of being a consistent noise.

Fun game, bit cheap on the graphics and could have used some music. Could it be you took some inspiration from Portal? :)

I also like games where you end up weak but gain powers over time. Nice job!

Really liked it! Interesting Game, maybe you could make more short levels, because the level is really long, but that's fine! It's fun :)
