Amazing game for 48 hours! Looks great and feels polished.  There are some original ideas here!Moving the robot using only the camera images was pretty frustrating, but it adds to the suspense.

Surely this game was fun to play: the overall structure and the idea is just so great! I think even the clunky tank controls were perfectly justified, and they support perfectly the overall mood. On the downside, the game could have been a bit prettier and the writing a bit better, but those are just minor flaws. As a whole, very good job!

Robot controls felt very wonky, but the horror aspect was done well. Audio design was on point, also good voice over. Nice game.

Developer

Thank you! I love doing voice over for my games, I am glad my voice isn't too annoying for everyone haha.

Thanks for the feedback, and thanks for playing! :D

Art is great. Audio is good. I like that there is a story to back up the gameplay. The controls were a bit wanky but overall a good entry!

Developer

I am glad you like the art and audio. :D Controls are a little bit weird, but I guess thats always gonna happen when you are controlling something from multiple perspectives. Thanks so much for the feedback though, and thanks for playing. :D

Really really nice, it got my heart pounding for a moment there. Robot controls where a bit slow, but I think it gives the game a bit more of the scary feel :D

Developer

Haha glad to here i got some blood pumping in these comments. I know they were quite slow,  but one of my worries was that if he was too zippy then it would remove a lot of the tension, also probably make it too easy to get stuck in spots as well. Thanks for the feed back though, and thanks for playing! :D

A super funny and a very well made jam game. If I would change anything in this game, I would have made a robot that looked a bit more like a Robert. I used way too much time finding the Robert in the begging of the game, and I read the nodes and heard the messages, but when I pushed the buttons I did not see anything move, or at least it moved very slow. But okay overall is this a really cool jam game. Well done.

That was a concern of mine, I really wanted to emphasise where he is, which is why i added the light, and the sticky note. However deep down I know I should have mentioned it as an objective in the top corner, or in the voice over, thanks for the feedback, and thanks for playing! :D

Awesome! I had to take my headphones out to avoid wetting myself.

Developer

If it makes you feel better, it even made me uneasy as a dev, I can't play any scary games at all! Haha.
