very well done! This had a fun gameplay loop and the graphics were great, they fit the style of game very well.

Hats off to you for such a great tutorial!!! Though I didn't succeed in this game I like the concept and style!

This entry is pretty neat! Really liked the art, kinda reminds me of point-and-click games from the 90s. Wish the game gave you a final score at the end to gauge how well you did, but I still replayed the game a few times anyway. Good job!

Great graphics, great sound, great and fun gameplay loop! Very well done, one of the most enjoyable games I've played yet.

fantastic graphics and sounds! Looked a bit complicated in the explaination (the ingame instructions are well done) but was actually quite simple to play.  Very good game!

This was a brilliant game! Took me a while to get the hang of it ^^; But it looks great, and is a very unique take on the theme. Great job :3

Absolutely amazing and harmonious game art. I love how you could assign robots by scaling different gates. It is fun to find a balance. The only problem for me is that after I got my robots to attack monsters, they won't get back for some reason. But overall great job!

Really solid jam entry! Took me a couple tries to get into the flow of things, and it was still tough even once I did, but eventually got a pretty good run going, and it was really fun trying to keep everything in balance! The gate sizing is a really clever implementation of your mechanic! 

Only real thing I felt was missing was some sort of feedback once you pressed the button so it was primed for a robot to eventually make its way over. Otherwise, really good stuff overall!

Loved the visual style and concept, a bit tedious to grasp everything but the game loop was pretty enjoyable :)

Great art, and I enjoyed the gameplay loop! Tough but pretty interesting!

The game is really great, everything is perfect (special mention to the art that is gorgeous) except for the difficulty that is insanly hard... But the difficulty won't stop me from putting you a 5/5 cause i know that this is hard to balance in a jam so good job :)

It was a bit hard for me to get a grip on things. I love the art style though.

Simple yet fun! I love the visual style

Really beautiful game and well polished. Would be nice to force a robot to stop what its doing and go somewhere else.

This game is gorgeous! The gameplay is unique, but a bit hard to grasp in my opinion. Once you do grasp it though, there's a nice loop underneath. Well done!

Submitted(+2)

i really like the way you interpreted the theme, but felt like what you were doing wasn't super clear at times. Overall though, the game was really neat!

Submitted(+2)

This game is gorgeous! It looks like lots of effort went into polishing the game which is great! My only issue was it was slightly difficult to control exactly what I wanted the robots to do, otherwise, great work!

Submitted(+2)

Game looks absolutely gorgeous. It's really hard though. Maybe some more control of individual robots would help ease it - like selecting where to go upon clicking on them.

But overall nice game about managing colony of robots.

Style is awesome, the robots are very adorable! I love the take on the theme, which I find simple yet very clever. I couldn't get more robots to spawn, unfortunately.

Awesome game and the art style is also good looking
