Good work, i like the style and animation.

Missing sound though! and was a bit confused as to what to do, i kept going left to right turning them red to green,...

Thanks! Yeah I need to get better at using sounds. Hopefully I’ll have some next time!

I liked it quite a lot! The tutorials were well laid out and gave me pretty much all the info I needed to make the game. It would have been nice if there was an option to use TypeScript, as the auto complete was a little finicky at times. But otherwise it was really good!

The gameplay is rather simple, maybe too simple for my liking. It controls good and is responsive enough.

I like the light flat colored sprites. The stand out from the background and thus make the overall more digestible.

Overall alright

Thanks for playing! Yeah I went for a pretty simple game this time around. Hopefully next time I’ll go for something a little more ambitious!

Nice game, I like the main character. I felt a bit cheated when switches I had just turned on turned off immediately. I agree with Stingby's comment, some indicator of where the object are coming would help. Good job overall!

Thanks for playing! Just introduced a change that should stop the most recent switch from being immediately turned off, as well as the indicators :)

You should indicate where the falling objects fall. It makes keeping the top terminals on way easier.

Yeah I agree, the objects get pretty annoying at the top of the screen since the player model is so tall. I tried to fix it by stopping the player from taking damage at high points, but it still kind of feels unfair.

I might try and make an indicator for the objects soon. Thanks for your feedback!

Edit: Just introduced indicators for the falling objects
