Really nicely done! It's a great concept and you pulled it off nicely. I had a lot of fun playing this. And the graphics and music are great as well. A couple suggestions for post jam improvements are a way to restart the level, and a way to set checkpoints so the robot respawns there, (at the yellow tiles maybe).

Even without those it is still a great game. Good Job!

Developer

thank you for your comment and suggestions! We will be working on this project post jam, so it's nice to have some suggestions like yours already to try. Thanks! 😁

Simple but very fun, had a great time playing it, also I really liked the background music It's very catchy! Great work :D

Developer

thank you! We tried to keep the mechanics very simple but expandable. We're glad you like it!

Thanks! :)

I'm really sorry, but the game isn't loading for me :(

I apologise, but good luck in the jam!

Developer(+1)

That's too bad.. What device are you on?

Submitted

I'm on Mac

Really loved this! The graphics were great, the game play was smooth and really addictive. And I finally managed level 5! Brilliant!

Developer (1 edit)

thanks, that means a lot! Awesome to hear you managed to get all the way through level 5. 

We'll be making a lot more levels after the jam results 😁😁

Submitted

I liked the game! The music is good and the art have a lot of personality, maybe at first i was a bit confused with the game mechanic, but once you get the hang of it, it's really a fun game!

Developer

Thank you so much, we hoped the gameplay was intuitive enough to learn by playing. Glad you like it!

Nice game, I liked it!

thanks, we'll sure be doing that!

I like how you have to remember where to go from previous yellow tiles, but the animations of the tiles going away and coming back make it much too confusing, and the time restrain makes it hard to sit and wait for the animation to play. Personally, I think a longer timer or no timer would be best. Overall good game! 

Developer

thank you for your feedback. We'll look into balancing on that part after the results of the game jam!

Submitted(+1)

It's a great game, but the game is confusing. You can add some more instructions for the game like what yellow tiles do, and what batteries do. Other than that, great work!

Developer

thanks for your feedback, we'll look into it after the jam results 😇

Fun puzzle game! A bit confusing, but I loved the aesthetics and overall mood!

Developer

Thank you ☺️

Submitted(+1)

Fun and well-polished game! 

Developer

thank you so much 😁

Really good idea! Sometimes the path with different yellow platforms can be challenging (not saying it as something bad, i like challenges), and the art is super cute also! Great job

Developer

Thank you so much, yeah the later levels are very challenging even to me. Glad you enjoy it!

Submitted(+1)

Good game, I had fun. The visuals and animations are really smooth, and the music is great. Great job! :)

Developer

Thank you! We're glad you enjoyed it 😇

I really liked the idea but I'm not sure how it works. What I got is that yellow tiles show what is real until you reach another yellow tile. But sometimes the tiles don't disappear even they have been shown as disappearable. Maybe a little tutorial screen would help to understand mechanics for the ones like me..=). Other than that everything looks crisp and fluid. One of the best puzzle games of the jam that I played. Very well Done!

Developer

We'll look into necessary tutorial/flow additions after the rating period. Thanks for your feedback, we appreciate that!

This is really good, and I had fun trying it. I like the visuals and the music. It seemed that there was a few bugs, because I was sometimes able to walk places where I should not be able to go to. Overall a good jam game. Well done.

Developer(+1)

Thanks! We appreciate the feedback, we'll do some thorough bug hunting after the rating period. So it's good to know what to look for 😇

Submitted(+2)

Nice, clean visuals, solid work on the sound too

the timer got a bit stressful at times but the general gameplay loop is very solid! (And I once got a game over because the timer ran out while I was on the green tile)

But overall, I liked it!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! We might have to tweak the time limit a bit. Maybe add some difficulty selection for different type of players, but that's something for further dev.

Submitted(+3)

Well great idea! The disappearing animations just somewhat satisfying to watch! Cool game!

Developer (1 edit) (+2)

Thank you, we appreciate that. That animation was actually done by our programmer :)

Submitted (1 edit)

Uh wow. Was that using shader?

Developer(+1)

It wasn't actually, it is done by tweening. Each button has a list of closest to furthest tiles and a tweening sequence will start when you stand on/go off of a tile. Glad you like it tho ;)

Submitted

Ow I thought it was using shader cuz I've ever watched a talk on youtube bout that. Btw cool animations!

Submitted(+3)

Great work! The puzzles are nice - the visuals look excellent and the effect of things appearing and disappearing looks fantastic. The music suites the style and it was an excellent choice to do grid movement.

Developer

Thank you so much, we've had some discussions/ideas about the gridbased movement, so it is nice to hear you liked that!
