In what way does your game fit the theme?
​Charlie, the Mad Scientist and his grandson, Robbie wander through time and space together but 6 hours earlier Robbie has been captured by one of the​ most terrifying species in the multiverses so YOU as Charlie have a mission to manifest CHAOS by using your portal gun to summon your VARIANTS from different infinite parallel universe to distract enemies, shutdown prison's security and then break Robbie out so it's kinda 'Let's there be Chaos' vibes? I guess?

Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
The code is 90% mine, 5% brackeys' and 5% for other good people on stackoverflow and github, so basic yeah. I wrote most of the code.

Anyways, the maps are totally made from Cainos' Pixel Art Top Down - Basic free pack but I tweak his asset for a bit to match my game styles. Check it out on Unity Asset Store btw, without him this game might look even worse than the way it is now.

This is my first time creating my own characters and animation from scratch but I ended up creating all of the characters' graphic and animation somehow and it looks kinda terrible but at least it works so yeah. If it work, it works!

That was crazy good. I loved it. I would have loved a bit more feedback on your status, as I didn't know if a robot had snuck past my mortys. 

Great stuff, I would love to hear what you think of my entry.

that's another cool game to add to the list, till now it's the highest-rated game for me.

the only thing is that the game is a little bit hard, and when writing the codes to hack I have to be aware of the capital and small letters.

but good job, you really did well.

and I would appreciate it if you play/rate my game.

Developer(+1)

Sure! I'll check it out!

Wow ! Amazing game!

Submitted(+1)

Good job on creating that, I'm a fan of Rick & Morty so I liked the refs ! Sad the puzzles are too easy, but with more time, I felt it could be a lot of fun ! Keep it up !

Ok first off

The idea is freakin awesome!

The story bout charlie, amazing!

The game is pretty unique and i think that it can do well as a standalone game as well!

Developer(+1)

Thanks! appreciate your compliment!

Definitely chaotic!  Great job! The difficulty jump from the tutorial to the first level though was way too much for me. I couldn't beat the first level, not even close!  So maybe tune down the number of robots on the first level and give them less health to start.  The puzzles are a really cool idea.  The issue is that they are often a bit long, especially typing in the program commands.  It would be interesting to turn those in to mini games somehow that can be solve a bit faster with practice.  Overall, really neat idea that has potential! Keep up the awesome work!

Developer

Thanks! It's actually easier if you spam more variants to distract the robot long enough to complete task and here's some little secret you can ctrl+c / ctrl+v at the typing task.

Woahh.. my screen full of army and robot... very very cool game.. very chaotic.. nice work!

Submitted(+1)

I don't really have anything to say about this game other than it is a nice game! :)

Submitted(+1)

Very cool! It fit well with the theme, I liked that I was doing tedious tasks while my minions were waging war haha. Also very nice and polished art!

Developer(+1)

Glad you like it!

Wow good game, 4,7 stars for you!! And thank you for voting my game

Developer

Thanks! and your welcome, you deserve that vote.

Submitted(+1)

Definitely a very fun and chaotic game. Great Work!

Submitted(+1)

This is a rock-solid submission. Even more so that it's solo.

Innovative use of mini-games in the main game loop, and highly chaotic gameplay.

Excellent job! ^_^

Developer

Thanks! It's hardly any people appreciate me as a solo dev(totally not because i have no friends btw)

Submitted(+1)

r/INAT is where I found my team, so that's a good place to look.

Here is a link to our team's community discord: https://discord.gg/cStZXzQP

Developer

thanks for advice!

Submitted(+1)

as a slow typer this was indeed a chaos lmao . Good job!

Developer(+1)

I want you to discover this yourself but actually you can ctrl+c / ctrl+v to paste the code there. I want to fix this at first but I think as a programmer myself copy and paste code from others is not a bad thing at all lol and also to help my bois with slow wpm(including me). I decide to keep the bug as the function instead!

Submitted

it was fun anyway thx for the tip

Developer(+1)

well, enjoy!

Developer(+1)

He looks kinda low budget though ngl

Submitted

:)

Submitted(+1)

The concept and the story is awesome! I enjoyed the game :)

Submitted(+1)

Really good game :)

Submitted(+2)

I loved the graphics and concept! But I think the introduction should have less text.

Developer

I thought the same but I have no time to polish that level. Sorry for that.

Submitted(+2)

I like that concept of shooting gun that summons army to defend you, it was interesting. But tasks are kinda booring and too much text on screen, i guess. But still is a good job

Developer

I would love to have more time to polish that because I spend too much on balancing the game as much as possible.
