The HTML link doesn't work for me. I'll wait to rate your game when that's fixed :)

https://ciobeni.itch.io/plug-me-in is the correct link, for anyone looking :)

Gets stuck at 96% loading on osx safari for me.

ok in chrome though.

ah i enjoy moving around and the light pacing of the earlier levels. eventualy it got a bit nerve-wrecking, but I saw it through to the end. thanks for the charming game :)

(oh I thought the music worked nicely also)

restart didn't refill the battery :( nice puzzling game. music is a little to fast for my liking. There was an odd lull in the levels after the tutorial levels Tutorial levels were well done.

for some reason the link dosnt work?

ciobeni 2017-07-31 22:14

Oops! The link is fixed now.

Very cool puzzle game! I really like the clear tutorial teaching all the game mechanics, a lot of LD games are lacking that (mostly of time constraints, but still :slight_smile:).

- Graphics are simple but decent, nothing bad to say about that. - Music is a little low on volume, but because it is a very fast and busy song that might be a good thing ;) - I lost interest after dying 3 times because I had to do all the levels again. It would be nice if you could try the same level over and over again. With these types of games, the challenge is not in surviving but it is in solving the puzzle.

Well done!

23408 - It's nice to play a good puzzle game!

I love puzzle games 24420 the most fun game ive played so far awesome!

okay so the basic premise is there but the levels in the middle dragged, once you introduce the switch going back to just moving to the exit was not really an interesting challenge. also i would add a reset level option, once you push a crate into a wall yo are screwed

It's not good to have to restart the whole game when your energy runs out.

azziliz 2017-08-03 21:28

Agreed with comment above me. I want the R key to refill my energy, please.

bunrun11 2017-08-04 00:30

There is no win screen :( The mechanic that the resetting the level doesn't refill your energy doesn't add anything to the game since some levels require almost if not all of the energy. If it's only there because of time constraints then don't mind me, it's not really a game breaker.

Cool game, enjoyed playing it! I only found it a little bit annoying that you had to restart from the beginning when you failed a puzzle. Would have been better if you didn't have to do the puzzles you've solved again, but overall it's really enjoyable! Good job!

ledez 2017-08-04 13:23

Great game! If improves could be a good addictive game. Other than that I agree to just restart the last room you was playing and not the game from the beginning. Excellent job for Compo (48hrs) submission. Keep the good work.

Really good fun and a nice idea for the theme. I thought the music and graphics worked well

@ciobeni Nice work!

I liked:

The Puzzles: I think puzzle games are one of the more risky games you can make for Ludum Dare because you need to put in a lot of work, but I think you did a good job with them. They did require thinking.

The Music: It was really upbeat, fast-paced, and just cool to listen too. It also gave off the robot/power vibe.

I didn't like:

The Battery: I think for the first 5 or so levels the battery was set too high and I ended up with half of it left by the time I reached the plug. Then on the level with the 2 boxes I just kept running out of power trying to figure it out. I think you should have made the battery for each level only a little more than the shortest route to make you think a little more. I also wish restarting reset the battery like some other people said.

Overall, really solid work! Good luck!

For the most part, I really like this game. Most of the puzzles (that I was able to reach) seemed well-designed. The graphics look great and the tutorial is really well-done.

However, as others have said, it is very annoying to have to re-do the whole game after screwing up a level. This essentially ruins the whole experience, as it makes playing more of a chore than entertainment.

The music is okay, although I'm not quite sure that it necessarily "fits".

Really nice job to successfully execute a fun and interesting puzzle game! Like others have said, I *really* wish the battery filled upon restart. That said, I think the tutorial text that accompanied the first few levels was extremely effective -- well done!

menip 2017-08-11 04:50

Fairly enjoyable puzzle. Nice music, just the sound when you finish level was a tad loud :) Also, got frustrating that running out would cause you to restart whole game, where instead you could simply press r right before running out. Good job!

buzzshock 2017-08-11 06:07

Nice job - boy it gets more difficult quickly! Would be nice not to have to start over from beginning.

snirp 2017-08-11 06:47

I would also like to not start over at the beginning. That said, a good robo-game, I enjoyed it. Thanks!

Nice puzzle game!

Graphics and audio fits the game mood

I wish there were restart level of undo button. In this game sometimes I realize that made a turn that was stupid and can't be corrected (moved box to the corner for example), in this case undo button would help a lot
