Great entry, I don't like how I have to kill myself to progress, but it is perfect for this limitation.

i'm surprised with how much art you were able to create in so bit time, the song was well structure and all the game design works well with theme. keep it up!

Pongame WarSuper nice use of the limitation! I honestly was so impressed when playing. The game forces you to make choices and place your steam at strategic place. Brilliant!
It is also a super good thing that you added the checkpoint because sometimes waiting for the game just to 'simulate' itself gets boring
If I can give some feedback, the sprites were all the game colors, specially the main character which makes it confusing sometimes when you look at the screen.
In the end, you guys made a wonderful game and I really love the concept. Congrats!!

Steam OutProbably the best use of limitation that also uses the theme. Game is pretty creative, great work!

Death SolverThe idea is amazing! Really creative use of the limitation. It took a moment for me to understand the mechanic, but once it clicked, I was amazed by the idea :D Really, a great entry! :)

Solomon TrainIt was fun seeing what path I was taking depending on where I put steam pockets, loved that idea. Great use of the theme and limitation!

Questionable Machine ShopI liked this idea a lot! The little touches--the clicky sound the robot runner makes, the background art--are very nice. It wasn't clear to me why I got a game over (Main Menu/Restart) screen a couple times on Endless mode without being stuck or falling into the fire; it might have to do with the battery/coin pickups, as what they signified or affected also wasn't clear to me. Good use of save points to keep the game from being too repetitive. One thing I found interesting about this game concept is that it really is possible to lock yourself out of success, because if you explode/steam too early on a pipe you're not going to be able to avoid that since there's no way to close up airholes... Overall, a very neat twist on the endless runner genre, and excellent use of the limitation and the theme!
