Who thought moving in a straight line could be so difficult.

Developer

I know right?? Thanks Leko!

Such a great idea and I think this is what real-life lag would feel like.

(also I really dig the art style!!)

Developer(+1)

Hey exxaggerating, thanks for the feedback on the art style. :)

The real-life lag reference is a nice observation. if you look at hierarchical systems, like armies for example, it takes a while until commands reach their final targets in the field, and in a way the game simulates that, on a micro level.

Submitted

A really interesting comparison and a good way to show why deeply nested hierarchies are ineffective for quick decisions! :D

Rated!

First impressions, this game messed with my head many times. Very interesting idea that has a lot of potential to become a full game, and I enjoyed the minimalistic artstyle and sounds. 

Very hard but super rewarding game!

Developer

Hi Enedee, thanks a bunch for the comment! As of right now I'm not sure about continuing development, as the novelty might wear off after a while. I have some ideas but I'm not sure it's worth pursuing them. In all honesty, would you play the game again if you knew it had more levels and potentially more mechanics?

Sorry... What?!

Developer

Yea...

The game is super interesting, the idea is amazing and very well executed I love it!

Thanks a lot, MoonBlastStudios.

This is so hard 😂. It looks way easier when not playing 

Nonetheless the idea is so great and original, too bad there's no menu and all. Awesome entry 💪 

Developer(+1)

It was important to me to create a direct link between the player and the characters, so if they don't have a menu I felt like the player shouldn't have one too. I appreciate the feedback, Mat. ♥

Submitted(+1)

Did it :D Took me a while but its a great puzzle, really makes you think carefully!

Developer

I'm glad you got to experience it fully, Team 55!

It's very sweet of you, Soupcream, you're the first I've seen to call the game responsive. :)

Developer

I liked it!

Developer(+1)

I'm happy you did, MS ANNOTATION X!

Submitted

I am happy to hear that too! 😊

Submitted(+1)

A little bit frustrating to get the hang of but I really dig it

Developer(+1)

Glad you found it enjoyable despite the frustration, Sawybean.

Submitted

I should say: it was frustrating in a really good way! I get the sense it was deliberate

Submitted(+1)

Developer

Genius! Like it a lot

Developer

Thanks pepigarcia.

Submitted(+1)

Interesting idea, but the robots are quite hard to control. Especially when you have four of them on screen at once.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, Mika, I appreciate it.

Super clever idea. Like it a lot!

Developer

Thank you very much, MaverickHorn.
