Fun concept the button mashing to get points was fun but the game is very easy and so it got repetitive but overall good game.

Developer

Yeah, I favoured simplicity so I cut down on unique mechanics and enemy fights therefore, instead of forcing new mechanics and therefore rushing them. Thanks for the review!

Submitted

Some sprites are a bit  blurry, but overall great job! :)

Developer(+1)

they are! sorry about that. godot isn't very good with scaling up sprites, and i'm still new to pixel art, but thanks for the review!

Submitted(+1)

yea I know that problem, first time using pixel art in unity turned out the same for me :D well, but learning stuff is one of the things why we do game jams, isn't it? :)

Developer(+1)

exactly!

Submitted(+1)

I like this game, very original concept ! This was really funny, except my own little sister killed me on my first attempt ah ah. I had some trouble on my first try to understand exactly what robot did what action, so I ended up buying them randomly, but this was fun. The sounds effects are really cool too.

Also, it's cool to go outside after a game jam :)

Congrats !

Developer

Sorry if it was unclear about the robot actions! Glad you enjoyed though :)

Love the keyboard smashing nature of the game, as well as the unique story. Almost beat the game, but I was forced to go outside, next time I'll be smashing more buttons when I get there!

Developer(+1)

Haha! Hope it wasn't too difficult, but maybe going outside will do you some good XD

Submitted(+1)

I think it was just difficult enough, makes it so you don't beat it the first time, but you come back for more.

Developer(+1)

great to hear :D

Submitted

Tried the game. I can say one thing: it’s a good game, funny, do it’s job in a 3 days jam game. I don’t see so much “wowie” though and the tutorial was totally unnecessary for me. It was too long and managed to arrive on “ a boss “ without knowing anything. Visuals needs improvement, SFX and music were enough. I think this game point on being fun and funny, and this is not a bad thing. Keep the WOWIE up!

Developer(+1)

The tutorial was unnecessary but you ended up not knowing anything? Sorry if it was unclear- I tried to make every mechanic obvious and easy to understand, as well as the tip at the end. Which enemy did you get to?

Submitted

I mean I skipped it entirely just to see how the game was intuitive and it was even without the tutorial. I reached Mum btw.

Developer(+1)

I see. Generally doing the tutorial would help lol. Thanks for trying and leaving a review though!

Submitted

If you will do the same to my entry, you are welcome! ☺️

Submitted(+1)

Haha, not gonna lie, actually had a lot of fun just obliterating my keyboard. 

Developer

LOL that was what I hoped for! Hope you enjoyed it and it wasn't too challenging, and thanks for leaving a review!

Submitted(+1)

Awesome game man. The text was a bit hard to read, but the game was pretty easy to understand anyways. 

Developer

I was concerned about the text, yeah. I'm glad it was easy to understand though, and thanks for leaving a review! :D

Submitted

Very hard to read font - feels like game window should be bigger :) Other than that, I enjoyed it ;) 

Developer(+1)

i did worry about the font, yeah. I'm still kind of new to accommodating to different screen sizes and such, so that'll be why. Thanks for the review though!

Submitted(+1)

Lol I loved the concept of just spamming my keyboard

Developer

hah yeah. I thought it was unique and exciting in a sense. Thanks for playing and leaving a review!

Submitted(+1)

Very fun and creative game. Only suggestion is maybe have the numbers on numpad be used to make the robots because you cant really type fast while having a hand on the mouse.

Developer

oh my gosh why didn't i think of that! if i could, i would definitely add that in now! Thanks for the review and suggestion- it's greatly appreciated :D

Had a fun time mashing my keyboard. Art style is nice too, though a bit blurry here and there.

Developer(+1)

yeah, I struggled to find ways to de-blur stuff in godot, but it's not very good with that. Thanks for the play and the comment though!

Submitted(+1)

Absolutely fun experience! Really unique gameplay. Laughed a lot at the Story.

Developer(+1)

hah! I knew not going outside would appeal to the masses!

Submitted(+1)

Really fun game - the concept is pretty unique to a tower defense game and very on theme. The art seemed a little blurry in some parts, and there seemed to be some inconsistency in the pixel art scale. Loved the voice acting! Caught me off guard at the start but made the experience even better :)

Developer(+1)

you're right. I'm very new to pixel art and I'm still learning it, but I hope that didn't take away from the overall experience. Thanks for playing and taking time to write a comment though!

Submitted(+1)

Fun gameplay loop :)

Developer

thanks!

Submitted

It is nice but It doesn't tell me the commands or the code I have to write.

Developer

oh no the 'code' you write doesn't matter at all. It's the LENGTH of the spam you write that matters. Sorry if it was misleading! It would be cool if you retried it without the worry about syntax in mind :)

Submitted(+1)

Great idea loved it! Great job!

Developer

thanks alot!

Submitted

The gameplay feels fun at the beggining, though its a bit repetitive. The whole concept is just fun, tho i feel like something like slowly gaining new abilities would improve this a lot. Good job anyways!

Developer(+1)

that's something i thought of too. new powerups and such- however I decided it was better to keep it short and simple. Thanks for playing and rating though :)

Submitted

My pleasure! Again, really cool concept, could be a great game if turned into a full one'

Submitted(+1)

Very creative! The controls were a bit difficult, needing to type and drag at the same time was a bit overwhelming. I really liked the idea overall, I'd love to see it more polished.

Great work!

Developer(+1)

true- there's a reason there's not many games about spamming the keyboard while enemies approach, and yeah- I think it would be cool to turn this into a fully polished game too. Thanks for playing and taking the time to comment! :D

Submitted(+1)

This is fun

And I really loved the idea your game)))

Good job!

Developer

thanks alot! really appreciate that :)
