This is super cool! Awesome pixel art on the player and enemy sprites. Would be great to see more of that in the environment. Super fluid motion and nice touches to the mech on slopes (which is never easy in platformers!) interesting enemies, with distinct attack patterns and looks. Would say I only found out I could jump higher by reading the comments, after being stuck in game thinking, I'm sure I must be able to get out of here / up this tiny hill, I'm a giant mech! Also was good to have clear bullets that could also be destroyed. Just adding in some a single backing track and less placeholder ground and it'd be totally up there. Oh and realised we have some similar mechanics! We'd have been a good team! Look forward to seeing what else you do!  Thanks really enjoyed it!

Wow! Thank you for the great feedback. You pretty much hit the head on everything. This was a great experience for me to learn from. I think I have a good grasp on what features I missed on this project to apply to my next game jam. I'm waiting to review your game until I have a controller. I was not doing well with the keyboard inputs.

Nice job, I really enjoyed the fast pacing along with the platforming in the underground levels. One thing I'd suggest is that, when pressing Q and switching to high speed, it'd be cool if the high speed was instant instead of having to press A or D again to move.

Thanks for playing. I agree, there are situations where it takes too long for the run mechanic to kick in. Looking ahead I will probably spend more time on testing the movement systems.  Thanks for your feedback.  I appreciate it.

Nice work on this! I liked the detail in the animations when the mech feet go on the ramps and the kick from the rockets. 

Developer(+2)

Thank you. When I was working on the foot movement, I had to tell myself someone would appreciate it.

I think jump is too short, robot has booster should jump higher.

I fall on green pit , I can't go farther

Developer

That's my bad. I should of included an in-game tutorial. You press "Q" and "E" to switch between higher jumping or faster run speed.

Nice idea, I like the possibility to change the 2 weapons .  Good Job

If you wanna try my game would be great.

Developer

Thanks. There is a secret third weapon in the game.  I will be sure to check out your game. Thanks for playing mine.

Really good fast paced, high energy experience! Felt so fast and fluid. Only thing I would suggest is maybe add some music for quieter areas.

Developer

Thank you. I was going for something fast and destructive. You are right. I need some background music and probably some boss music.
