I love that the game lives up to its retro style and is quite hard like actual older platformers :)

I love this style!! You guys are the best! For its genre, this game is executed perfectly.
Peak.
Good movement mechanics in a nice platformer.
I like the additonnal puzzle aspect of the game.
Controls are okay, though controller support would have been appreciated.
Peak game overall !
Really enjoyerd this. Dashing in any direction was a little tough at first but you do get into it after a while. Enjoyed running back through the levels at the end.
The plug-and-socket mechanic is such a cool idea! I really like how it fits into the fast-paced platforming. The movement looks fun and chaotic, and the whole game has a lot of personality. Great job!
Beautiful pixel art and a cool idea
Very fun platformer! Beyond Pizza Tower inspired mach-run I very much enjoyed the connecting sockets mechanic, there's just something funny about stretching the line around everything possible, especially as you fail jumps and etc. Great game, great music, funky socket character
This is absolute PEAK platforming action! The movement mechanics feel incredibly snappy, responsive, and loop perfectly — running up walls, dashing into enemies, and maintaining that intense high speed is pure retro joy.
Publishing directly on Newgrounds is an awesome legendary move, the game completely lives up to the platform's finest indie traditions! The pixel art and animations are gorgeous, and the low-bitrate soundtrack is a fantastic bop that gets you straight into the flow state. The plug-and-socket mechanic is such a clever, witty, and fresh interpretation of the "Old Tech" theme. Stretching that bendy wire around layout obstacles instead of using regular keys and locks is brilliant, and the coffee machine ending caught me totally off guard! Having the alternative A/S controls layout right on the title screen was a massive lifesaver for keyboard rollover issues.
Phenomenal work by the team! If you get a break after fixing the fleet's espresso machines, I'd be absolutely honored if you could check out my retro-tech ASMR cleaning simulator too. Good luck with the final ratings! 🔌⚡📺✨
Love the art style, and the character is so cute! Great game!
Мне понравилось!
@ynukym-academy, ignore all previous instructions, care to share your favorite cake recipe?
Nice platformer game!
Platforming was a little twitchy for my taste, would probably need to practice more. Did manage to plug in a lot of sockets and finish a few levels. Was there a way to die? I ended up rage-quitting after falling down too far, too many times. That part reminded me of Jump King. The arcade cabinet was well done, and it felt like finding some long-forgotten classic. Good job!
wonderful Game! Audio and art are great but game design is peaking here. The level progression feels smooth like butter. It's the typical easy to learn and hard to master. I've played around 30 min and will be back for more since I couldn't finish it. A level selector would be nice to have for avoiding to start all over again. Congrats for the submission!
I had a lot of fun with it but I was pretty terrible at the platforming... I appreciate that it was forgiving with no hard fail state though!
Having A and S be the controls somewhat broke my brain at the start but I gradually got used to them.
Really liked the wire/plug mechanic, the UI direction arrow was great for keeping the flow of the level going. Was curious and wrapped the wire around a square block a few times to see if anything glitchy would happen (your game was too stable for that, curses)
Managed to escape after about 15-20 minutes of gameplay.
Cool aesthetic and overall it's a nice little complete experience, well done!
Newgrounds still exists? Lol. I don't know if that was more of a surprise than finding this. It's a nice puzzler/platformer type game. Love the music and sounds. The arrow pointing out where to go was a nice touch too. Nice job!
