The concept was cool, but I didn't really like that the punch action was very slow, and disconnected from the rest of the game.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback. I wanted the punch to have some 'wind up,' but I'll look into trying to make it feel more satisfying in the future.

I wasn't expecting the mouse phase to revive, really nice idea I haven't seen yet. Great pixel art too! GG

Developer

Glad you liked it! I'm happy about how the revival mechanic turned out.

I like the idea of playing both the mech and the mouse and the art style is really cute.  I'm just sad the movement feels so slow.

Developer

Thanks, and I'll try to improve the movement in the future. There was some slowdown that I couldn't find the source of.

Incredibly cute art, especially the mini mouse in the section after you die. Well done!

Developer

Thank you, glad you liked the mini mouse part!

Really love the art style, especially the GB style menu! Feel free to check out my submission too if you have the time!

Developer

Thanks! I'll check it out!

I like the Gameboy art style, and I liked that when I thought I was dead, I learned that I was actually a smaller mouse inside the mech who can fix it, good little twist. My suggestion would be to add sound effects/music to make the game feel more impactful.

Developer

Glad you liked that part! I will definitely add sound effects in a future update.

I am postively obsessed with the gameboy reminscent artsyle, it works so so well for this really unique concept!!!  Definitely a game I would be interested in playing more of!!! 

Developer

Thank you! I'm a big fan of the original game boy, so it was fun to work in GB Studio for this!
