Cute! ♥ You just need to move forward, but it's a very atmospheric way to move forward! There's a certain charm to it. Well done! ♥

Loved it.  Made me question my existence and thinking about futility more than any other game in the jam! I love the art style and the 2 pixel PC.  Seriously great approach to the theme and a work of art.

I forgot to switch off the oven fr.

Really simple short and sweet game and idea, love it!! I was at first confused about how to play by holding down the button, otherwise was nice and kinda meditative too!

Submitted

Quirky interactive experience with comedic dialogue :) The style complimented the situation very well

Submitted

Nice and Short. I would've loved shorter landscapes, longer appearing dialogue boxes and more indication to where the robot frooze. I love Pico 8 games. Great job!

Submitted

Nice Story!!Nice Game

Submitted

Think first, good robot, right? Really interesting mountain game!

Seriously though, this was a fun little piece of art, thanks for making it!

Submitted

Interesting concept! I didn’t realize I had to keep holding right on the second part of the mountain. Clingy really do be climbing forever haha.

Good job!

Submitted

I think i missed a small tutorial but the game is very fun and the feeling is quite good !! :D

I played this for years trying to figure out what I was doing wrong, but then my room flooded thanks to global warming and I've lost all understanding of existence. So thanks :|

Submitted

It took me quite a few deaths before I realised I just needed to hold right. but afterwards, it was quite a zen experience, with a fun ending! Nice work!

Submitted

Amusing as always. I know it is ultimately a joke and the punchline is really great, but I actually think the simplicity of the mechanics actually really complements the game at a narrative level, and there is an interesting story here in the environment about time and the scale of things.

my only feedback is perhaps you could provide a clearer indication that we did in fact reach the end, because after the first screen I thought I messed up at first, but then again perhaps that just makes it even more amusing.

I think that the low-res art here really emphasized the bleak scenario, and the elementary understanding of the situation that the robot seems to have. Condensing a whole dramatic worldwide story into the background of a singularly focused robot is a really cool narrative trick, and I think the gameplay of just doing one single thing forever drove it home all the more. My biggest request would be for more clarity with the mechanics. I also let go of right after clearing the first screen, which then made me fail and less interested in replaying. That aside, very positive impression! Thanks!

Really unique experience about a smol robot guy climbing a mountain!

I think you did a really good job at conveying the robot's loneliness, the ambience was really well done

Submitted

It took me a while to understand what I had to do, but good job!

Submitted

That was interesting! Being forced to hold down that right arrow really makes me feel like the robot who spent centuries scaling a mountain. Good work!

Submitted

i love this game! it's super funny that whenever you stop you freeze to death (even though you are a rboot who is not even alive?!) very silly game

Submitted(+1)

This is really interesting, the game mechanic of holding to move can definitely be frustrating if needing to pause etc but it definitely works as a metaphor for pushing through the climb. 
The water section terrifies me as you are climbing down and the water is rising. I also found it very interestting the first time that I noticed the clock. Storytelling with no text. 

Submitted

This game was very funny thank you :D
