The game had nice graphics and fun gameplay! only reccomandation is that the objects dont keep up with the bulldozer when trying to push them off but aside from that it was a nice aesthetic game!

How does the game fit the theme?
The game is about simply trying to microwave a burrito. Nothing could go wrong doing that... except the robot apocalypse is happening and robots are falling from the sky.
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?

This is quite a unique little game. The premise is hilarious, the graphics are cute, especially that little robot bulldoser and the microwave machine. The game is short but satisfying, the controls are simple to understand. I had quite a bit of fun with this game too! Good job! For a single short jam game, I do think this is decent enough, but I would really want the game to have a bit more depth. However, I am struggling a bit to think of a way to expand on the game without adding too much scope. Maybe having different objects falling with some having special power/attack etc I am not sure.
Anyway, nice work making this game! Keep up the good work!
I like the simple and unique idea, great for a game jam game! It does get a bit repetitive after a while, but understandably there probably wasn't time to add anything more. Maybe the falling speed of objects could have varied to make things a bit more interesting.
Nice game, I think it would've been better if to lower blade, you had to hold down a key instead of the 2 positions with S & W, but it might just be me
But I think its a good game, I liked the visuals style ! Nice music too. A bit challenging at first but I got the hang of it
Even when an apocalypse is raining down at you, a robot gotta eat. A Fun arcade game about protecting your most valuable assets : the microwave!
The gameplay simple but has some depth, since the falling robots don't just disappear after they touched the ground, you actually need to push them away, and at the same time, you need to be careful not to push the microwave to danger.
Very cool stuff, great job!
After several tries I managed to get the burrito. I'm honestly not sure why I was going to so much trouble for such a grumpy microwave though. I wish it had been a bit easier to precisely push things away when they were close to the microwave. I kept dropping my shovel when it seemed like I was far enough to not grab the microwave but ended up pushing it anyway.
Fun game and nice graphics. Only note is that the bulldozer is a little too slow, but your idea is very cool.
Interesting mechanic! It is tricky to keep it alive but very simple to understand! Well done!
Nice Game!
I really liked the idea, the lowering and lifting of the bulldozer blade gave the game more depth than I thought. The music, art and font were all very fitting to the game, which made it pleasing to look at.
Especially the difficulty modes gave the game very much replayability, you don´t see that very often :o
Really enjoyed playing!
Looking forward to future games or a post-jam version :D
I likes this game a lot! The funny comments at the end made the game a lot more engaging, and added something extra. Maybe try adding some "Dynamic Difficulty Balancing" if you want to make a post-jam version. I would love to play it!
The overall atmosphere was so fun. The gameplay was simple but also pretty addicting. It took me many many tries but I was finally able to enjoy my burrito. Great game, I had fun!
