Doomba by Unept

[raw]
made by Unept for LD28 (JAM)
Unfortunately, I got stuck on the boss level, and lost precious level-building time. Many levels may feel like "example" levels.

Still, I hope you enjoy it.

I like it. Was quite easy, like you said, though.

This game plays very cleanly. Heh.

Good job you guys, I enjoyed it a lot. The art is my favorite thing about this game.

Solid game. Very satisfying, and neat puzzles. I really appreciate that you marked the previous location you used the pulse, that saves a lot of frustration and makes it more fun to twiddle with.

Great little game, challenging enough to be fun without getting too frustrating.

Really nice concept. Got stumped on the 3rd level until I got the hang of the pulse. (Cause I'm dumb) :P

Good variety of enemy behaviors. The cat-driven Doomba was super cute. I was thankful for the previous-blast marker; it helped to avoid doing the same thing wrong every time. The music fit the mood quite well, too.

No real complaints. The only bug I found was that I triggered a blast after death one time, but it didn't have any affect on gameplay.

Where in the world did you come up with this, lol?

For the most part, this was a very fun, unique game to play. Killer vacuum cleaners? Sheesh!

Thanks all for the great feedback.

@Photon, it's based on a meme I saw on reddit.com/r/funny a while ago, where people taped real weapons to their roombas and called them doombas. But the game idea didn't come up until brainstorming for this LD.
