YOU'RE SIMPLY THE BEST

Better than all the rest

Better than anyone

The music is absolutely my favorite aspect of this game. The haunting chords in the title screen and strange banjo + electric bass combinations in the game itself are really inventive and fun to listen to.

The gameplay was kind of a bad experience for me, though. Each restart would take a few seconds to boot, and in that time enemies would kill me before I had a chance to see my character. On the runs where I had time to actually play the game, the enemies seemed to move too fast and have too big a hitbox for me to properly avoid them. I would have liked a less of a focus on the enemies and more of a focus on the crumbling floor, as that might have fit the theme better.

Overall, I'd recommend this game for the unique music style. Maybe other players will be luckier or more skilled than me.

Nice! The good music really made it entertaining, it was a really fun game to play!
There's a problem with the dashing system, though. The only time you really need it is when you're in front of a 1-wide path with holes and you have no other option than use the dash. In times like this, it's very hard, I couldn't figure out how to ^^' Maybe it would have been easier with a controllable jump?
That's almost the only thing that killed me. I never got out of the 3 lives, maybe one life would have been enough :o And I never got to the point when there's no floor anymore either, maybe it should have been quicker.

Wow, you comment on your own game saying its good?

The music sounds really awesome for this game :heart:

@crispypin Our intention was to make a joke, therefor the reference to the song. Sorry if it could've been misinterpreted. No need to react like that :)

@hiku @guin36 @earnso Thanks for the feedback! We certainly had some difficulties with balancing everything so that it felt enjoyable and challenging at the same time. Definitely going to keep this in mind next time! :D

Here is my thoughts:
After I read the Tutorial on my first runs I didn't know I can shoot. :)
It wasn't that easy game for me, I only got around 4000 points max.
The push back ability has a good animation, but has almost no effect at all, it only pushes back the enemies a little bit and only if they stand really close to you, maybe it could be stronger.
There were a lot of insta death where I died before I could move because some exploding bot spawned on me.
There were lots of maps where the portal was right next to me in the second room at the start, but it's cool how you can generate maps.
I dashed in the wall once, and also started a map in the wall, and couldn't die and saw two enemies stuck there too.
And I couldn't figure out how to dash savely, I fall in the holes too many times, maybe I'm just bad. It also has a great animation.
The charachters look good, but they could have different animations when they move and when they stand still.
The theme was well interpret: when you need to go back on the way you come you feel it how you run out of space.
Yup, the music was the best part, it was neat.

It was a good idea, and with some polish it could be a pretty good game.

THE BEST

Graphics looked good but honestly needs more work. Death seems instant and holes will show up blocking exits. I spawned and died instantly a few times.

This game is really nice and the graphics are pretty good

The music is good.
Before spawning there is a lag that may lead to instant death when enemies spawn right next to you. The dashing-system did not really work for me - I could dash, but was not able to use it to cross holes, so it was rather useless. And I could not figure out how to increase heat to be able to attack(?) enemies.

@balka We really appreciate your feedback, it helps a lot, especially for young developers like us, that have no experience in this field. We'll make sure to polish the game, using the information we got from you.
@bastian The heat increases with each bullet you shoot and at the maximum value lets you use the push ability (press c). Thank you for your feedback.
@darkguardsman Thank you for your feedback. We'll hopefully work more on this game and we'll make sure to remember your points.

After reading you comment I started the game again. In the tutorial you do not mention anything about shooting or even mouse-control. I only figured it out now and was able to shoot - I have to say it becomes a whole new experience ;)
It makes the game much easier and much more playable.
Still i do not see any use in the push ability since I can shoot. I updated my ratings ;)
Cheers

Oh snap! You are absolutely right @bastian ! We didn't even think about mentioning it, probably because all the way through the development of the game we became so used to it. Sorry about that.

Loved it. It's probably the best game I've played so far. Great job!

@george-lancaster Thank you, this comment really boosts our confidence as developers.

Wow! I love the music and the robots!! Simple and sometimes pretty hard, but i enjoyed this. Congrats on your first game!

@estudios-y-producciones-gusa Thank you very much! We appreciate your feedback enormously and we are glad you enjoyed our game!

Really cool individuals pieces, but this game feels unpolished. The sprites are individually cool, but the lack of animation holds back the art style. The character powers don't feel intuitive or satisfying. The 1-width gaps are a pain to navigate the character through, and there isn't enough protection against enemies spawning on you and killing you before you can react. The music is, as others have said, excellent. Good work!
