This looked fantastic and moved great, there did not feel there was much variation however which with more time I would love to see, this is a great template for what could be a really awsome game. I hope you continue to work on this! Great work thanks so much!

The world was super neat to run around in, camera felt smooth and overall input felt responsive and nice! Your volume settings were welcome but I did notice the volume setting didn't appear to effect the button hovering noise. Unfortunately I found the combat a bit easily gamed, and didn't overall notice a huge difference between level difficulties, but the concept was there and well implemented! Would love to see more mechanics added and maybe different types of mechs, etc!

I loved the feel and look of the city area, it was interesting and felt alive.

Though I could not join a mech fight, pressing F on the vehicle didnt take me to the fight, it didnt do anything.

I felt the sound fx were a bit too loud by default and no volume control on the soundfx.

Overall I want to see more and especially the mechs!

Was running around trying to take this all in for a good while! Great work - hope ye do take it further! Very cool. Loved the clunkiness of the robot - made it feel great having such smooth characters to play with. Nice work!

Another very well produced game, quality assets and very nice lighting and rendering, very atmospheric. The fighting reminded me of Battling Robots old fashioned game from years ago, great fun, would like to see more reaction from the punches to make it more satisfying, a few sparks would nice as well, and def more combos street fighter style. Great game the should be worked on more, would be really fun, my only request is lose the foot step sound or add some variation to it, I had to turn the sound off as it got very annyoing very quick :)

Awesome game, very fun! Would love to see this turn into a full game. Lots of potential here.

very cool game and level design and sound design. I like how the move and turn are seperate makes the mech feel heavy and cool.

the upgrades tab is a bit barebones but it's cool to see the mech evolve over the gameplay :)

Nice fun :)  Very pretty. Some good ideas here. I agree that it wasn't too difficult for now, I could definitely see this being expanded into a much bigger game with more parts / upgrades / moves etc. I'd love to see the robots being able to move quicker and be a bit more dramatic. Nice work :)

Developer

Yeah, we want to continue developing this further. 
The thing I want to eventually do is use the jetpacks more. 
Also, it will have shooting etc. 
Sadly it was a time thing. I think we only really worked on it maybe 5 days maybe a week. 
The release of Gaia Pro 2023 set us back a bit haha.

That was pretty fun, it never really was to difficult, especially if you moved back after a swing. Nice work

Developer

Yeah def want it to be a bit harder.
We think we are going to continue developing this into an actual game.

The looks was amazing. I love the mech battles. The big issue is that the city while it looks good doesn't seem to serve a purpose when exploring. I would have rather had one room with a tutorial and explanations of the upgrades and what they did. As it is, I just added every upgrade when possible. I wish I could build this level of a game in two weeks. Good job.

We were going to add the shop outside the garage to go buy parts but we ran out of time.
We wanted to have a kinda shop street kinda thing, with some illegal parts in an area of the street.

That sounds awesome and make perfect sense why that area was built. If you decide to continue post jam hit me up I'd love to give the version you wanted to make a try.
