Great concept and execution, and so many puzzles too! I just wished there was a turbo button, waiting for the robot is too tiresome. But apart from that great job :)

I really like the breadth of tools the player is give to solve problems, it makes the puzzles interesting.  The art looks good and makes the game very readable.  I wish the robot could move a bit faster.  Great job.

If there's one thing this game reminds me of, it's probably Mario VS Donkey Kong Minis March Again, in that you need to guide a small robot to a goal with the placement of level objects. It's a really fun system that I like a lot and makes for great puzzles! Well done!

Really fun concept and art! The puzzle design was great, had to look at your walkthough because I couldn't figure out your last level haha

Good game and the gameplay fits the theme. I wish it was a bit faster. Otherwise, it is already very polished and the level progression is great.

This game is great! Had a lot of fun solving all the puzzles but I think I found a couple of solutions that weren't intended because I still had a bunch of items at the end. You could experiment with giving the robot a battery charge that depletes over time if you'd like more control over the solutions for the levels. But anyway excellent game!

That's been a lot of fun, but I think I cheesed the last level a little bit. xD

A fine display of the wonders of unity's 2D physics being unreliable. TBH I think you can just place conveyors across the gap, although it's a little glitchy when the robot get's ontop of them.

Nice polish on this game. It seems the difficulty is not necessarily increasing between levels. I was not able to finish the last level though, couldn't get my head around it.

In the end, I really liked the game, was very fun.

Thanks for the feedback! I'm hopefully going to put a walkthrough/gameplay video on the game's page, when I get the time, so hopefully people will be able to finish the entire thing.
