Awesome! Feels weird on the beginning but it has so much potential! you did an amazing job, congrats

Awesome game, the "realization level" was to hard for me and I dont know if in late game you realy can use all of the available mechanics. BUT, it was a good moment of gaming :), the song is lovely and graphics are gorgeous.

Nice job!

@paul-p1 thanks for your feedback ! we tried to make the concept of the game as clear as possible in the first levels, i hope it was not too confusing.

@carbonara thank you ! the "realization" level is the last one ! the levels were all designed around the interaction between new mechanics and previous ones, but sometimes alternative solutions exist. i'm glad you enjoyed our game !

Really nice gameplay and interpretation of the theme ;) Nice work !

Great game! Graphics, and music are awesome! Fits the theme! Good job!

wow this turns out to be great! I think it also would be a great idea for LD41 mix of two untraditional types: platform + strategy. By making the platform turn-based it's a whole new world for game design! 5 for innovation for sure

brilliant concept

Wow, this game was amazing! I loved the graphics and audio and all the types of ways to solve each level! This game was really amazing! One of my favourites so far! Well done!

Fun game, it was interesting trying to work out what controls where needed to complete a level.

Marvelous game.

Sick game, its just so good, amazing work.

Wow that kind of blew my mind! I especially love the fact that it's a turn-based platformer, removes all skill from the gameplay and only focuses on puzzle solving, brilliant! Bringing a lot of the decision making prior to actually moving the robot by making the player choose the abilities beforehand is also a really good idea in my opinion, it annihilates the brute-force option and forces you to think way ahead of execution. The artstyle is really cute and the music is nice too, the whole thing is coherent and well polished. I've had a few bugs(?), sometimes on reset the right key gets unbound, sometimes not. Also I don't understand what it means when the robot "gets stuck", it would be nice to have an explanation of that state somewhere. Overall a really good entry, one of my favourites so far, congratulations :)

Mind-blowing gameplay, pleasure visual, relaxing music and a very solid implementation! Awesome! Sadly, that I can't bring myself to finish the whole game.

pedro-rosa 2018-12-08 14:35

the artwork is great and the concept is really interesting. I think the core mechanic is really clever. Love the relaxing music.

gentoogames 2018-12-08 19:32

Overall great! I dont know if it was just me or my system, but I didn't have any sound? Looking at the other comments it looks like was just an issue on my end. But I really enjoy the concept, the art, and the wacky jumping/movement system.

@gentoogames oh sad, maybe your firewall or an ad-blocker :/ Thanks! :D And sorry for this inconvenience

Excellent level design, it made me wish for even more interesting combinations. Level 20 was really perfect, it seems like you really made sure no other solution could work! I am personally a Roborally fan and Robo-key certainly brought back memories, too… Just a few minor issues to report: when restarting a level, the middle command slot was cleared; and the visual feedback when driving on walls was not very clear.

purrseus 2018-12-13 13:11

Like always, you produced an incredibly well designed game! The game design works really well and you created some nice puzzles. Art is simple and incredibly cute. I loooove the dynamic music! All in all an amazing package!

Great job!

This is a very clever game. I think it would work marvelously with a system designed for gamepads, with face buttons and what not. Still, it has clever design and a system that takes some figuring out, but is very rewarding to learn. A+!

coatline 2018-12-20 16:25

Very good idea. I don't think it went with the theme completely, but it worked. I liked the way you had to pick the different actions and the way you introduce them all. Very fun!
