  • Visual treat. Mechanically a joy to play. Lots of good audio/visual feedback. Liked this a lot. If there was anything that stood out as bad it was that the camera seems like it could be posted a little bit closer to directly behind the player.

Glorious fast paced shooting action.

Loved it, only thing i'd add is that it would be nice if the mech moved a little faster when you're just walking around.

Haha the gibbing in this game is hilarious, but in a good way. Shooting feels good and impactful, neat mix of the shooting and platforming with the mobility options. Even with the arrow guides, it did seem a bit difficult to know where to go without first time/without having failed before. The roll feels a bit weightless or "off", but not really a huge problem or a complaint. I like the cyberpunk/blade runner sorta skyline in the background and main menu.

Wow! What a great game!! Might be my favorite I've played so far. Loved the shooting combined with the platforming, although the platforming was a little bit rough in places since you didn't always know what you needed to do until you'd failed a few times. You've got a quality old-school game here, and a solid base for taking the idea further if you wanted to.

Thank you! I definitely could have refined the platforming some more. I wish I could have spent more time on the levels

Awesome game! Left me wishing for more levels. Very nice 3d platforming and shooting, felt like I was back on my couch playing on my gamecube. Have to admit though, I felt bad just mowing down the running around people so I tried to avoid walking on them as much as possible XD very well done!

Thank you so much! I really wish I could've added more levels but I spent too much time setting up the fundamentals.

THIS WAS GREAT. Might be a weird comparison but it felt sort of like a 3D sonic game, were you have this long, acrobatic platforming course occasionally broken up by combat. The only thing I would say is that the enemies felt a little bullet spongey, the camera perspective made some platforming sections tricky, and (this is SUPER nitpicky) the mech's walk cycle felt a little stiff for the style of gameplay, purely from an aesthetic perspective. Overall though, this was super fun, and felt really nice to control. Well done!

This is really good. The gameplay feels good, and I like the cyberpunk atmosphere. The collateral damage element, killing people by falling into buildings, is really great too. Also I'm liking the idea of using Dall-E generated textures, that's awesome. Great submission.

Thank you! I wish I could have implemented the humans more into the gameplay; and made more than 2 levels. Dall-E is great at certain things, and can help with design concepts.

This was a lot of fun! I always appreciate fast-paced well made 3D platforming, you did a fantastic job.
