Loved the visual style and concept, a bit tedious to grasp everything but the game loop was pretty enjoyable :)

Great art, and I enjoyed the gameplay loop! Tough but pretty interesting!

The game is really great, everything is perfect (special mention to the art that is gorgeous) except for the difficulty that is insanly hard... But the difficulty won't stop me from putting you a 5/5 cause i know that this is hard to balance in a jam so good job :)

It was a bit hard for me to get a grip on things. I love the art style though.

Simple yet fun! I love the visual style

Really beautiful game and well polished. Would be nice to force a robot to stop what its doing and go somewhere else.

This game is gorgeous! The gameplay is unique, but a bit hard to grasp in my opinion. Once you do grasp it though, there's a nice loop underneath. Well done!

i really like the way you interpreted the theme, but felt like what you were doing wasn't super clear at times. Overall though, the game was really neat!

This game is gorgeous! It looks like lots of effort went into polishing the game which is great! My only issue was it was slightly difficult to control exactly what I wanted the robots to do, otherwise, great work!

Game looks absolutely gorgeous. It's really hard though. Maybe some more control of individual robots would help ease it - like selecting where to go upon clicking on them.

But overall nice game about managing colony of robots.

Style is awesome, the robots are very adorable! I love the take on the theme, which I find simple yet very clever. I couldn't get more robots to spawn, unfortunately.

Great, completed game! Gameplay is amazing, you need to get through the tutorials, but as you figure out how to play it's a sweet spot regarding difficulty and offers pleasant smooth gameplay focusing on balanced and reactive resource management. With time it's getting more and more difficult, so it's a great challenge. I love the art style, it's beautiful, music is great as well!

Thank you for such wide feedback!

The art is amazing guys, great job!

Really great artwork and the music is very fitting to the setting.

The art is simply incredible.

The game design is very cool, but the difficulty a little bit too high for me. I wasn't able to have more than 7 workers, even when trying hard.

I love that kind of game and you nailed it. Very well done, really.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback!

Yes, it's was very hard to find a balance. To be honest, we just didn't have enough time to set it up properly. Made last balance fixes in the last minutes :D
