I think this is a really cool game with a lot of small unfortunate details--such as the title sequence, certain sound effects, the lack of ambient background music--that keep it from being really, really cool.
However, at first sight there are a lot of things that will turn people away from the game: the story screen cut in half, and the sounds were mentioned, but the control scheme is also a bit iffy. Ctrl to shoot and Shift to jump is a combinations that is not very good to the hands - added that there is no explanation to the controls, I had to fiddle with the keyboard for a bit until I found them.
But after you get past these initial hurdles, it is a game well worth playing. Thanks!
PS: Oh yeah, I liked the decision that you made about how water interacts with the robot, and the small file size. Two +1s for you!
