How does your game fit the theme?
The robots share an energy resource, and their abilities are focused on connecting and disconnecting the bots to solve platforming puzzles. There's also a cheesy story about the two bots being joined together, but it's bonkers and a bit convoluted.

Cool game idea, voice over is a nice touch,  nice visuals, controls can use some polish.

Thanks for the feedback buddy, I'll be sure to revise the controls after the jam!

Nice take on the theme. Controls are a bit rough. Good music and  intro level. Well done.

Developer

Thanks, glad you enjoyed the music!

I agree with other comments about the controls they are a bit confusing :/ Other than that the voice acting was a great addition i loved it :D The presentation is nicely done. I want to see this game with simplified controls. Overall nice work :) 

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

Dual controls! That's a great premise but my brain is bad at trying to understand the separated movement. I think games like these need to be super simple, and the fact that you need to coordinate movement between them simultaneously gives this a steep learning curve. Add in that they have different movement rules and powers, and it's just a bit much. I really appreciate the voice acting and contrived story though. 

Overall, nice work and presentation! Good job on creating this in just two days!

Thanks for the in-depth feedback! It's funny to think that when I released this game I thought it was too easy and people would blow past the levels in 5 minutes, creator bias is a helluva drug.

Lol, that was something quite unexpecting. The game fits the theme well, and the dialogues and premise are very entertaining. You did a really good job and audio. However, the gameplay feels overcomplicated, mostly due to the control scheme. After wrestling with it for a while, I just give up in trying to understand how the control works. If you could help the player understand the core mechanic better, the game could flourish quickly. As for now, nice entry with a good emphasis on humor and audio (sadly they don't really have those as separate categories).

Developer

Thanks for the detailed feedback! You're right, I definitely need to add a more detailed explanation of the mechanics in the beginning, I had a few friends playtest after the jam and half of them weren't able to make it past the first level. (here's a tip kids, playtest your game DURING the jam XD)

I enjoyed the presentation of this game. The robots, the flying particles, the teleporters. They all felt very futuristic and slightly distopian. Unfortunately, I didn't make it too far because I kept struggling with the controls.

Developer

Thanks, futuristic and dystopian is exactly what I was going for, glad to hear it came across that way.

The voice acting was the best feature

controls and animation felt a little off

good effort

Developer

Thanks! I'll definitely look into redoing controls, the more feedback I get the more I realize just how bad they are. XD

Submitted

Really interesting mechanics and awesome voice acting! Really fun and challenging to play by yourself!

Developer

Thanks a ton!

Submitted

I really enjoyed the voice acting and the 2 robot controls. Very unique!

Developer

Glad to see people are liking the voice acting! Was a bit hesitant at first, almost cut it because of time.

Submitted

The Voice acting is really well done. Quite amazing to see in a game jam. I found the controls a little difficult though.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! You're right, I think I'm gonna revise the controls after the jam is over, needs some tweaking on the velocity.
