A lot of fun! As always, the graphics and music are very nice, creating the perfect mood for the game (although you apparently opted out of mood?) Although some of the sound effects, namely the sound of the generator being destroyed, were a bit harsh. A short, but all around very well polished experience!

Oops, sorry about the Mood removal, missclick :) Thank you for your first comment! The sounds were made during the last hour, that's why they suck :)

Incredible, incredible game. How you did the legs, gosh. Amazing. The pixel art, music, everything, perfect. 5/5.

Pretty cool little game.. you should just call those robots "Buttons" that would fit the theme well :) Is there any game over condition? I haven't noticed any HP and won all 3 maps without problems.

This is always the entry I am looking forward to the most.

Idea of having the two robots that you can switch between was cool, and the robot walking animation was fantastic. The art is great and this would definitely have sold a lot had it come out on the Amiga 500 for example.

Funny game. Quite short and a bit repetitive, but good feeling overall. I would have love to have civilians to step on :)

Single-player coop, that's new! Amazing work, as always. Shame that there are no enemies that could be killed by stomping on them.

Presentation's gorgeous as always, particularly the walker animations + details. :D Love the 'creep' as a Growing mechanic. Only little gripe is gameplay's a little simple. Love it though!

Stunning with beautiful animations as always ! I love the mood, the ambiance and the overall feeling of the world is really good. Impressive work !

The movement and feel of the robots is really kick ass! It fits the theme pretty well, art is great, animations are top knotch, it's got polish and multiple levels... This is awesome!

Unbelievable graphics and controls. Not full points for the theme but everything else is extremely good.

Not as good as your usual entries but still very nice graphics, sounds etc. It was kinda annoying switching between the 2 robots all the time.

You had me at giant robots! Felt incredible to control those things!

I'm new to your games, and it's *Compo* not Jam, so you def have a talent for art! This is a quick post that the concept is a lot of fun, and I'm building a list of games to go back over in more detail over at DonationCoder.com so I'll post back again in a few days during voting with more!

Outstanding, as usual. I'm always amazed by your entries, and this one doesn't disappoint! I really love how the (giant) robots feel "alive" in the game!

Awesome game, I loved it! Super polished, you are the king of LD! Really liked it. The mecha animations are superb.

Possibly one of your best so far! Really really loved the implementation, it was just brilliant, once again!

As always, I tried your game first, and I'm not disappointed ! Nothing to say better than what have been said yet, so I just say : thank you !

Wonderful! Love the art and the way the robot leg movement works. I think it could have fit the theme more, but regardless, 5/5 :)

Amazing what you pulled off, especially in the short time. Wouldn't be able to make this if I had a year to work on it, let alone a weekend.
andrewkennedy
15. Dec 2015 路 09:36 UTC
Really liked it! I couldn't find a better strategy than move both robots at the same time (since left-behind enemies were re-making the spawn points) so it led me to question why there was a second, slower robot?
fullmontis
15. Dec 2015 路 13:30 UTC
Amazing game, as usual! I would even dare this is the best game you have done so far.It is so much fun, and has a strategic quality to it that is particularly addicting.

I kind of doubt this was actually made from scratch within 48 hours. Cool game nonetheless.

the game is visually flawless, 5 stars, but the gameplay is also very fun. Hard to believe you made this in just 48h :) well done!

16. Dec 2015 路 01:35 UTC
Oh man, that animation is absurdly cool, i literally said SO COOL out loud.
Changing between robots is a neat idea, but did the missile robot really need to be that slow? The game isn't exactly easy as it is, i lost in sector 3.
Brilliant work, though!
RadStar
16. Dec 2015 路 08:41 UTC
I would to rate your game, but for some reason, it doesn't seem to work :( I tried both on Chrome and Firefox but all I've got is a black screen instead of the game
GoodwolfStudio

Nice graphics and animations! Add some sound effects and you have a juicy action game.
Afendar

Great game ! but i have prefered delicious cortex. Robots are awesome. Mechanics is great fun.
Tuism
16. Dec 2015 路 12:48 UTC
Fantastic polish, fantastic presentation. Feels like a complete product. The tanks move beautifully and all the juice and bits of detail are just fantastic. Lovely minimap and all that jazz.

Except...

The gameplay is really uninteresting. There's not really any choice other than to move to the nearest hotspot, and there's no challenge other than to not dilly dally.

And despite everything that's in there, I really REALLY felt the absence of sound effects, heck, especially with the soundtrack playing. Sound effects are easier to make than music thanks to the likes of BFXR, so I would prioritise that first!

N.B : there is a possibility to go offscreen with robots, maybe you should put a blocker around the map

Simply awesome. As always. You're in another league, really. I very much like the movement of the robots.

I don't know what to say that hasn't already been said... You know your game kicks ass, so you don't need me to tell you. As always well done!

with less time on the second theme... and this was the result. :D nice work for less time. love the graphics like always.

Great entrey as always! Gamefeel is great, feedback is there. Maybe the gameplay mechanics could have been a bit deeper or the complementary between the 2 mechas more gameplay-wise appealing.

Great game! The mechs look incredible, especially with how they move like a modular war machine! The effects look great as well!

19. Dec 2015 路 16:45 UTC
Great stuff as always DeepKnight :D

I do always like this kind of indirect control and strategic play. All it needs now are a few enemies and mechs to spice things up :) It's a shame the other game slowed you down, though I feel better about my own work now I see even you have your limits ;P

Only complaint I can think of (for good form): my screen resolution is quite low though so I had a bit of trouble fitting everything is.

Nice compo, especially knowing how many times the gameplay changed in 48 H :)
Amazing visuals, i loved robots animations and move ; great visual and audio polish, gameplay is a bit easy once you get it,but interesting concept and AI mechanics !
Great!

Perfection! Would have loved some sfx and screenshake on the big guys' footsteps to make them feel super huge, that's about all I can think to mention really. So cool! :D

Enjoyable game, despite the fact that you can't seem to lose (?) and you can actually just solo all of the levels with the pink bot (stomping on enemies kills them). Oops! Well, I guess it's more of a tech demo than a game, but it's still fun anyways :D Would be interested in a writeup on your blog on how you designed the leg movement for the bots!

Beautiful graphics and the gameplay is pretty good (especially with the strategic switching of robots). It did some more sound effects and levels to be seriously polished though. Still a great job.

Would probably be better as a multiplayer game. Very impressive though.

Awesome game! I am really in love with the missiles - they look so perfect, and even though I'm not even firing them, it feels good to play! Great work as always :D
