Fun game! I love the concept! I think some parts should be a little better though... Like the feet or the boosters don't really work and you don't really move a lot so spaming robots was the best strategy. I really would love to see some updates to this game after the jam! Great game!

This is soooo fun to play. I'm truly obsessed. The mechanic is solid, and the delivery is good. If it has some more diverse mission type, and parts, this can be my steam to-buy game. Amazing job! Please check out mine as well!

I loved this game. So fun to design little machines to fight the other castle. It's one of those special jam entries you can just keep playing!

 My only feedback is that the theme was a bit lacking. Take away the Mario and Luigi clone enemies, and I wouldn't be able to tell that the theme was considered.

Thanks for the feedback! The premise is that you're building the overly complicated, barely functional boss robots that Dr. Eggman uses in boss fights.

Really great game! Lots of polish and variance for the short time. Took me a minute to get an effective machine, although once I did those good guys were toast :)

I enjoyed the  create your own death bot and it felt satisfying to finally make the perfect machine to destroy the heroes. Great concept!

Very cool concept with good art and decent polish! although the game seems a bit unbalanced, and was easy for me to beat on first try - maybe this would be fun as an endless highscore game where it gets harder and harder?
