At first, it was a bit difficult to get the hang of the controls, but after a while, it’s quite the satisfying gameplay paired with a nice relaxing song, feels like I could play this for hours. Great job!

This is some of the best presentation I've seen in this jam. I really like the theming and the gamefeel is great. Took me a while to get the hang of bouncing people around but it became extremely satisfying. Awesome job and I hope you keep working on it or take these ideas to something greater.

Developer

thank you man, this really means a lot :D

the mechanic needs some tweaking but I'm onto that.

good luck and thanks

At first, the controls felt kind of slow and it dragged along, but as I realized that moving both robots at once would make it manageable, it just became a matter of coordinating my two hands properly (I imagine it would be much more interesting with two players). The art, animation, and overall theme of the game compliments each other so well with the bright colorful vibe conflicting with the plot, and the graphics kind of look like they'd come out of some corporate marketing video as well. I think one criticism I have is making it easier to fling the people back into the building, even with the slight vertical control they'd often fly way above the building and it would become almost impossible to try to save two people at once as they came down. Other than that, it was super fun! Great job!

Developer

thank you for the wonderful wwords, really.

i agree with you on the difficulty and the accuracy of the trampoline, i fixed it and just waiting for the voting period to end lol

I ADORE the art style of this game! Definitely agree it's a blend that it's like really cute video game art but with the graphic style of a company trying to indoctrinate you into their hivemind and how you managed to convey that was beyond me. So so well done! Loved the mechanics and the game feels polished with great physics! Very original and well done! great job!

Thank you sooo much wow.  I feel like the game could have been more balanced but yeah you know, 48 hours ahah

Haha the game felt great either way! But totally get you on the 48 hour thing. The time restriction is the most brutal part of these jams!

Looks very polished, the style gives a perfect corporate dystopia feeling, where everything looks like a "masked evil", or as you put it "absolutely not-evil", so I love how it all comes together in the game. The gameplay is easy to get but hard to master (I'm awful at it but there's joy in getting the hang of it!).

Overall I really enjoy it, great work :)

You really made my day thank you. There's lot of stuff that needs to be tweaked or changed, but I'm really happy that you did enjoy it. Thank you so much :) all praise jeff

I really like the visual style of this game. It seems like trying to play it cooperatively with another player would only make it harder, though.

Developer

Thank you! Yes the difficulty definitely needs some tweaking, I'm currently thinking about ways to make the game more fun and engaging.

Well done for the are, the music makes it very nice too, the game is nice even though it lakes some kind of motivation to continue very far and the rythm is a bit slow, also I killed so many workers haha!

Developer

thanks for your feedback, we sure could have used a few more hours ahah. I'm really happy you enjoyed it. 
about the killing of workers: Sometimes you have to decide who has to live.. and who has to die :(
