Wow, for a 1 week 3D game demo, this looks great! The steampunk artstyle looks nice and consistent in both the environment and robot characters. I appreciate the careful attention to the level lighting with the tone variety and placement so it's not too dark.

The puzzles were simple but easy to grasp, and help link to the theme where every robot is important. However, I need to mention I experienced a glitch where my robot clipped through the floor and was stuck in an endless void. I had to restart from the beginning.

Despite that one glitch, it's a very-well made demo. Congrats to the dev team!

Great game! Nice idea. Especially liked the gameplay, art and sound effects. However it was lagging a lot. You might wanna optimize it so that it's playable by everyone.

If you don't mind, could you rate my game?

Really well put together! The game looks great, has a good use on the theme, plays well- solid job to all of you!

Super polished game, amazing job on this! I especially love the dark lighting and the scripted camera bits. Fun little puzzle game with potential. I felt that the steam robot was a bit underutilised, like I just had to put him in a certain location and leave him there until the other bots did the hard work. Didn’t affect gameplay but when I pressed space on the steam robot quickly his particles didn’t stop spawning. Great submission!

Fantastic artwork to compliment a nice, if fairly basic co-op puzzle framework.

NOTE: I managed to accidentally clip under the floor and fall off the world in the fifth puzzle area...!

Wow, the game art is really cool! Also, the idea is interesting and well executed, the game runs pretty smooth. If I'd add anything, it'd be nice that the camera could explicitely move and show what happens when you push a given lever, I got stuck at some places because I was pushing levers that were doing things outside of the screen and had to investigate what happened.

great job !

I'm so impressed! This looks lovely and is so cute and clever!

I love the art style and feel of this game, gives me old school puzzle game vibes and the need to use all 3 characters is a great way of interpreting the theme. The only gripe I actually have is that sometimes the jumping character seems to be able to jump across the entire level, i'm not sure if this is intended or just a bug but i'm assuming its a bug since it allowed me to jump right to the end of levels. Other than that great work!

Got stuck with a bug, that barred one of my robots from using their ability to jump after a certain point. Bar that, puzzle element where each character is valuable, is fitting for the game jam.

What an achievement for a jam, nice work! The game is fun even though I don't really get how is connected to the theme, but I would like to give you my useless feedback on a couple of things anyway.  Buttons instead of levers would have been more coherent with the game. If you make something wrong is pretty annoying not having a way to go back without restarting. That is all, as said before the game is extremely enjoyable, nice work :)

Hey, thanks for playing! Glad ya enjoyed it! We showed that 'every life counts' as each robot is needed to complete each level due to their utility - a level cannot be completed without all three, showing the value in each individual skill set and life. Also, the levers can be turned off if ya get stuck :D
