I seem to have found a bug where the player duplicated and I ended up with two full bodies, but it only happened once at the start
The game was really good! Easy to understand and it has great art
Thanks! Glad you kept playing even with the bugs hehe :D
This was such a fun game that immediately brought to mind classic titles like Metroid! I loved the attention to detail with the graphics, and the core mechanic with the robot was really solid and fun and led to some neat level design. I did run into a few bugs, though I can imagine that with that 48hr clock ticking down it must have been hard to find all of them in time. Overall it was a really fun game that I enjoyed a ton!
By the way, we played your game on our stream tonight!
Hey that's so cool!! Thanks a bunch for playing it on a stream :D
I liked how you explored the differences between being joined together and not.
It may just be me, but I’d find it easier if the tab key switched between the robot parts, I believe Tab is more natural than looking for the number keys.
Apart from that, good level design and amazing aesthetic :).
Thanks for playing!! I actually tried to make it all on tab key, but couldnt get the code to work haha :D (i talk about it in my youtube devlog)
Really good - I was expecting a boss in the end of the game, would love to see what you do with this game if you continue development. Good job, nice graphics and well made!
Thanks for playing to the end!! I actually wanted to do a simple boss, but ran out of time hehe. (I had to submit early and sleep for Monday work)
Hello Neat! Pretty cool game, I really liked that the upper part moved slower, it was realistic! I think I had some bugs and sometimes, when being whole body, I couldn't jump, but overall very nice product!
Thanks for playing Mumin :D Yeah a few bugs do pop up, not sure how to fix them yet XD
Died, then ended up with two robots xD
Double the fun! Haha, no clue how to fix that~ probably from my spaghetti code XD
Very pretty game! I found it a bit buggy, when I died I came back as multiple robots and I clipped the head through a wall once, but it was a really solid concept, and fun!
Thanks! It's funny, when you playtest your own game you never find the bugs haha. Not sure how to fix them yet, but I'll try too :D
loved the art and atmosphere, the concept is engaging and the gameplay is varied.
A tiny tiny bit of feedback: i would change the 1/2 buttons for swapping parts by just uning 1 button, like the right mouse button.
Has a lot of content for a jam game, the mix between puzzling and combat is refreshing
Thanks! I actually tried to make it all on Tab for 2 hours, but couldn't get it to work properly hehe. I decided to make it 2 buttons cuz it worked and moved on to other stuff.
Really clean and polished game! Nice mechanic, really like that there are reasons for all three states!
Thanks a bunch! That was my goal and reasoning for having to switch :D
Super pretty game with great visuals, although I did run into some weird glitches where the robot duplicates.
Oh thanks FennecFu! It does happen haha. I played the game like 10 times before the final build and no bugs haha. But other people always find them XD I'll try your game for sure!
Great game neat! Really great puzzles, and was really fun to play :)
Also if I split into 2 parts, then die, I duplicate myself, I ended up with multiple versions
Thanks for playing! Yeah that is a bug~ no clue how to fix it though haha (code is my weakest point)
Cool game! If you quickly click on the tab, you can make many copies of the main player. Is this a bug or a feature? :)
Definitely a bug haha, no clue how to fix it yet, but I'll try to figure out the code :D thanks for trying it out :D
I'm not a huge mouse to shoot fan, but this was great. Epic gameplay, concept, music and art
Thanks for playing! yeah I wish I would have had a keyboard option too, but I had less than 48 hours to make it all XD
no problem at all. It's an epic game
Very nice submission that plays with the theme well. I ran into a bug where the camera would get stuck and no longer focused on the player. Also it took me a long time to figure out the first puzzle because the same color brown is used for the platform and the background so I got confused. Small gripes aside, a wonderful and well made jam game. Cheers!
Thanks a bunch for playing! That's a good point~ If I keep working on it, I'll make it clearer for sure :D
This game is basically how I originally pitched our game, "what if we had two characters, and once they combined they could fire a weapon?". We settled on a different theme and didn't have time for enemies, but I'm glad someone had a similar idea and was able to make such a good game out of it. I enjoyed just about every part of this. The levels are cool, the puzzles are fun, and the art is fantastic. Great job!
Oh really? Haha great minds think a like! Thanks for playing :D
Looks great and is pretty fun! I like the concept quite a bit as well, though I might be biased because our team did something similar hahaha
Oh really? Haha great minds think a like I guess! Thanks trying it out :D
Cool concept, and great presentation. The visuals are great! It was fun to play, but I think making the controls a bit easier would have made it more fun to play. Here are some ideas that maybe you can consider if you decide to make an update later:
All in all, great job, this was an impressive game!
Thanks for the great feedback and playing the game :D I actually tried to make it 1 button for 2 hours and couldn't get it to work, so I moved on to other stuff haha. I do wish I mapped the controls on more buttons, that is easy to do hehe. Thanks again!
Cool concept, I really like the ability to break apart and take advantage of the separate pieces. This is very similar thing that we did in our game too! Great work!
Oh great minds think a like haha! Thanks for playing :D
What an amazing game! I remember you from last jam, you posted that black hole game with tower defense, it's amazing how much you've improved!
The game visuals are super pretty, love the background effect and overall game aestheticsc. The approach to the theme is very creative and it makes for cool platform/puzzle ideas.
Oh hello! Thanks for remembering my last year game :D And thanks for playing this one!! I'll rate yours for sure~
Really cool game, didn't encounter any major glitches
Yay! Many people are finding glitches that I didn't discover in my 1 hour of playtesting. I'm glad you didn't have any :D
