Really fun! The music and sound effects were awesome, and I love how the little mecha also serves as your mouse. It’d be great if the health bar and its text had a bit more contrast, but overall a great entry and very enjoyable. Also, who wants anything other than damage up, it’s the best upgrade! :D

Developer

thank you for playing! :)

honestly, I'd probably always pick damage up, so this works for me. The music kept me pumped!

Welcome to RSI simulator 😅
Neat, would have loved to see other upgrades. DMG up is OP tho.

I don't think the volume setting works btw. and it's super loud  to start off - I got a jump scare out of it.

Developer

yeah - never got the volume working but, i hope you didn't get scared too bad :(

Pretty fun. I gave up after about 10 minutes because I had started getting exhausted from the clicking.

Developer

i'm glad you gave it 10 minutes at least, appreciate your time playing! :D

I think this is a me problem, but I was slightly confused at first, thinking that the planet was my character and somehow the movement wasn't working. Oops! Maybe this was just due to my OS cursor covering most of the mech sprite.

Developer

I've gotten this a lot, couldn't figure out how to hide the cursor on web. glad you figured it out though!

Oh, I had one other bit of feedback I forgot to mention -- It's hard to know how to adjust the sound volume with no sound playing :) Adding a bit of sfx when changing that option would help.

My hand got quite the workout playing this, pretty fun little game

make sure to do your gamer stretches after playing! it's necessary!

Pretty simplistic game but satisfying nonetheless. It could do with some more varied upgrades, I could definitely feel the lack of a pickup magnet or a splash damage modifier. I enjoyed the subtle touch of having the background slowly rotate, it’s just a little thing but it really added a lot to the visuals and experience.

thank you for the feedback! I'm glad you noticed the background spinning :)

pro tip: the "Damage Up" power up is the best one
