This is some pretty good shit. The pilot should have some indication that the pistol's range is limited. In addition, I don't know if this was intentionally, but the laser pistol despite it's shot animation messing up, appears to be semi-auto which made mashing away the shield generators really easy. One thing I didn't catch was the mention that the mech can't enter the shields but the pilot can as mentioned by others.

Hey, thanks for trying it out! I agree with what you're saying about it not being clear that the mech cant enter the zones but the pilot can. I wanted to add some voice lines tell the player that, but ran out of time.
I do agree that it is very easy to destroy the generators. In the future, if I pick this up again, I would probably add smaller batteries around the generators to destroy before destroying the big one, or something along the lines of that.
