Didn't notice the effect of \"shock\" aside from visuals. Game supports WASD, but it's inconvenient to use the keys together with Z. Robots don't hear me when I'm running, so there's no big point of not running. Also after restart from checkpoint robots are not reset, and one robot blocked me at the right-bottom checkpoint, with no way the exit the room :(\n\nGood job anyway!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"duskpn","author_uid":"1006754","time":"2017-08-01T21:06:27Z","epoch":1501621587,"modified":1501647263,"text":"Hey, thanks for the feedback!\n\nI forgot to disable WASD in the end-Jam rush. Running makes no noise, but it costs way more energy than walking the same distance.\n\nI'll look into this problem with the robots.

I managed to play through without using shock, drain or cloak. Thats why the abilities felt to weak and I didn't knew why I should even use them. Next level should be a bit more challenging with every ability used at least once.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"essell","author_uid":"1046057","time":"2017-08-02T18:38:41Z","epoch":1501699121,"modified":1501699121,"text":"Nice.\n\nGood stuff:\n- Nice simple idea and gameplay, well executed (good scope for a jam game)\n- Visuals and sound all feel coherent\n- Simple level design and gameplay, but fun\n\nSuggestions:\n- Some areas felt like they would be more fun and interesting if they weren't so narrow (giving the player a few more options and decisions to make)\n- Coming at the game with a metal gear solid mindset, I didn't understand why I was resetting a while after being spotted? Was I getting hit in a way I didn't see? Is it a direct but delayed fail after being spotted (I hope not because I'm not keen on insta-fail stealth)?

Shock is mostly useful once caught, which doesn't happen very often due to the ease of avoiding contact with running and cloak.
