How does your game fit the theme?
"Build N Mech" fits the GMTK Game Jam 2024 theme "Built to Scale" by allowing players to construct and customize their own robots, emphasizing the concept of scaling both in terms of robot complexity and the challenges faced in combat. As players progress, they can enhance their mech's capabilities, reflecting a literal and figurative growth in power and strategy. The game mechanics encourage players to adapt their builds to tackle increasingly difficult enemies, showcasing the scaling challenge inherent in both the design and gameplay. This dynamic progression aligns perfectly with the theme, as players experience firsthand how their creations evolve in strength and size to meet the demands of the battlefield.

loved it.
Really fun.
Really fun.
pretty cool top down mech game! Could use more audio visual feedback for when the bullets hit the enemies.
28:14 with 2048 kills
It gets a bit more boring once the game turns into "circle around the massive blob of enemies and shoot at them" because the game seemingly just summons them faster than you can shoot them.
It's also easy enough to not get hit, even with that many enemies cause they all just bunch up in one big blob.
Nice simple game, I also like the idea of being able to customize your character to your own liking in these types of games. Maybe make the parts able to evolve or level up to balance out the increasing difficulty as the game goes, and add more parts for the character that can be unlocked through some sort of in game shop or achievements.
Cool idea here. I am partial to mecha games so I will always play them when I see them. I think there's some cool potential to work off here mechanics wise. I like the idea of being in a sandbox and customizing my mecha to my hearts content and trying them out. It would be cool to see like a unlock or shop mechanism where I can buy more parts, also more levels -etc. This was a bit of fun here.
YOU’LL NEVER TAKE ME ALIVE COPPERS!!1!
This was so cool
The vfx and stagger effect of the enemies' getting hit is crips. would play this in a mobile <3 Great work!
Love the artstyle and the juiciness of the explosions, but imo the game needs some kind of upgrade system to be able to better keep up with the enemies
Being able to shoot lasers from in a mech is literally the coolest thing ever.
Fun game! Love the juicy elements of enemies flying away when blown up, the camera shake, and how responsive editing the mech is.
Reasonably fun game, however progression just stops after the tanks show up, and it isn't challenging enough. It would also be cool if the player got stronger over time
