Took a bit to get used to the movement, but pretty fun. Kinda felt like playing rock paper scissors with giant robots xD

Would be amazing if there was multiplayer!

I really loved the visuals.

clever idea, good controls, very polished!

I love the concept, but it was a little confusing to play at first. I think this could work nicely as an Overcooked-style multiplayer game.

Damn this is sick bro who doesn't like to play as giant robots. I would love the enemy robot have a bit more intelligence though he was mostly just standing there.

Developer

You're totally right. There is some AI behind his actions, but seeing as we didn't have time to add multiple rounds/levels, we had to balance him to be quite easy. Maybe we'll add that functionality soon!

It's alright I still enjoyed the game 👍

Really cool titans and love seeing the wee robot scramble up and down!

Submitted(+1)

You really nailed the mech aesthetic! Very novel gameplay concept too.
My only criticism is that the victory/defeat screen doesn't do much to explain that [Spacebar] is used to restart the game.

Great stuff!

Cool game! The soundtrack was nice, and I liked the visuals.

Submitted(+1)

I love the look and idea.  Feels just a little clunky figuring out where the paths work and where exactly to go to activate powers.

Submitted(+1)

That's one epic game right there! The music and the sound effects give the whole experience that extra punch, and there's a LOT of punching in this game already

Great idea! Controlling a Titan from the outside has never occurred to me, but it works very well here

Developer

It finally "clicked" for us once we slapped Shadow of the Colossus together with Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime and mech brawlers like Robot Alchemic Drive  :D

Epic game

Great concept!

Submitted(+1)

Love the concept! I would play more of this, maybe you could customise your titan?

Developer

If we'd flesh this out into a full game, we'd indeed add a campaign of sorts where you can unlock new mechs and possibly customize and upgrade them!

So uncommon take on the jam's theme o_O I like it!

Submitted(+1)

Great presentation and fun concept.  Curious if there is another lizard thing crawling around on the enemy robot.

It probably could have used a tutorial or slower start to ease the player into the game loop, it's a bit overwhelming at first. 

Good job overall.

Submitted(+1)

Very nice premise I could see a storyline with this with even more advanced mechanics!

Submitted(+1)

I really like the art style and think this is a cool way to interpret the theme, gotta rate this when the submissions close

Submitted(+1)

Very cool! Was very toy-like. Art direction very awesome. I'll be back to rate this later when submissions close!

Submitted(+1)

very cool idea, makes me imagine a multiplayer version with many little people operating a big robot together

Developer

Exactly our thought! A Nintendo Switch port with 2 players per robot would be the dream :D
