Neat! I definitely think you could benefit from a better tutorial. When you first start its difficult to understand whats going on and what tools fix what problems. I also think some sort of visual indicators for each symptom would help you locate problems more easily as it is difficult to understand how they relate in a long list. The art was really nice and pretty funny (especially the weapon arms). and the sound design and music were great (the robot voice was a great touch!). I would suggest would be the cursor placement for the tools consistent (like always in the top left) as sometimes I couldn't tell where my cursor actually was and also adding some indicator for a part being missing/removed.
Great suggestions, thank you!
cool game. it was hard to understand how to fix some problems but shortly after the game becomes fun. the music gives me goosebumps
Thanks, glad you like it! Any tips on how to make it easier to get going? My brother made the music, will pass your comment along :)
sometimes i wasn't sure what tool to use and after an incorrect tool usage i had to replace the part completely... but then i understand what tool to use. can you rate my game btw?
I made it so that you are (sometimes) punished for using the wrong tool - otherwise you can just spam every tool everywhere to fix all problems. But I agree it can be hard to know in the beginning, you have to really want to figure it out and I get that many players will not have the patience to deal with that. Especially if they're unlucky and get a hard problem in the beginning (they are randomly generated). Will have to think about that. Thanks for the feedback and I've rated your game, I really liked it!
fun game, but i dont understand how to fix certain problems
Any ideas how I could make it easier? There is an easy mode in settings that makes electrical and power problems more obvious. Maybe that should be on by default?
