Congrats! :)
I may have been motivated to continue if there was an interesting story, but I am probably too clumsy to get through the level even if I kept going..
The jumps remind me a lot of jetpack games, and it might be nice if the robot had jetpacks on. The precision and judging was just too difficult for me.
Something is a little frustrating with the controls, though. Maybe deceleration is too slow? Almost felt laggy.
I have two suggestions for improvements. The death animation is a bit on the long side for a game where you die a lot. In a similar vein, I wanted a suicide button for when you know it's hopeless.
On a personal level, it was fun to see how we handled the same concept so differently. I enjoyed the fast gameplay in yours a lot! Great job! :D
