I really liked this! I used a strategy of starting with Infinity and choosing the Evo points. Then I upgraded the auto fire so I could focus more on dodging, as well as bullets because they were my favorite. After that I could destroy a lot of the enemies before they got near me by using the radar. Then I had lots of Evo points so I went to History and beat the boss! EVO UNIT-01 LAUNCH! :)

Pretty fun game! I actually kinda like the clunky controls and the way you have to alternate your rotation to maximize damage.

That said, is it just me, or does health just not do anything? I died in 3 hits with starting health and I died in 3 hits with 990 health.

Fun game! I agree with SuspiciousUniKorn. Would be nice with a little more impact when you fail.

i like the art style and the colorurs :-) the progression is also fun. you could add a bit mor impact when you get hit or when a robot is destroyed.


didn't they also made an anime about this game?

Thanks for playing and for the kind worlds :).

Unfortynely, we don't have enought time to add some sfxs and visual increments :(. We gonna fix It when the rating time over. 

PS: we are filing a lawsuit against the gainax studio for plagiarism

Music was very good, liked that aspect a lot, felt a little too underpowered to start, but that's point of roguelikes so I can't really complaint! 

Developer

Thanks for playing and for the feedback, it's really important for us :).

Probably the game os a little unbalanced, but we gonna make some chances when the jam's over :).

Robot feels too clunky and I feel like the difficulty should come from other elements of the game.  However....  Really nice combat.  Nice sound effects.  Great palette and graphics.  I really enjoyed it

Nice art style. I liked that you really leaned in to the pink/purple aestethics works really well for the whole vibe of this game. The robot felt a little clunky at first but once you got used to backpedaling and shooting things got better.

Really cool mech game !

First off really like the whole title reference XD Then the game has a very solid retro mood, the sprites have some good detail to them the music tracks are absolute banger and appart from the smooth sprite rotation this feels really authentic to something that could have been on NES or Gameboy.

Gameplay wise i like the Left/Right weapon separation, and the fact that you can switch between 3 types at all times for each arm is a nice detail. 

While the controls are solid, i feel that the choice of tank movement makes progress a bit slow, since you have to manoeuvre more carefully around shots and enemies. Though i do like this approach since this puts the game in a bit more "grounded" territory for the mechs and i feel that's what you intended here.

So overall, real solid entry, good job :)

Thanks for playing and for the very complete feedback :).


Unfortunately we didn't have much time to balance the game and make progress more enjoyable. We'll work on that as soon as the evaluation time runs out.

No problem and i'm sure you will, balancing difficulty and fun with a jam deadline is always super hard so i totally get it :)

Loved the SFX, great pixel art, too! the controls just feel a bit weird, but I think it’s just a matter of getting used to it. Overall great game!

Thanks for playing and for the feedback :). We gonna made changes when the rating time end. Probably we gonna add another movement scheme XD.

The art style is really well put together, and fits so well with all those retro sounds, great work!

Developer

Thanks for playing and for the feedback :). We hope you enjoyed It!
