  • I really liked this game. I enjoyed how easy and difficult it was at the same time. The fact you had to choose if you were going to move really fast with your gun or slow with your feet was a clever mechanic. The music made the game have a really nice vibe to it also. Suggestions: - Allow for the P.A.C. gun to stay at its charged level when you inevitably die to the lasers. - Work on the reset for when you get reset from the lasers. The movement kept going even after being reset and I had multiple resets happen within seconds of being hit by a laser.

Summarise your game!
You play as a damaged warbot, trapped deep underground and only able to move quickly via the use of your guns.

Please explain how your game fits the theme:
Outside of being an instrument of war, the warbot predominantly moves via it's guns and P.A.C. Cannon.

The game is truly very hard! Got stuck at the point where you just got the canon, and heck that timing is just insane for the lasers. May try again at another day. Since that's out of the way, the game is very good! Well polished, very cool graphics, nice and oh god not annoying bgm, well done!

Can't give too many comments since I haven't completed the game yet, but the one thing that drives me crazy is that slow cool down. It feels like waiting for ages before that thing drops to zero. Given the game is on of those fail-fast-retry games, waiting for even 10-20 seconds for a full cool down is just too much.

Any, this is very well done! Like this a lot.

Frustrating doesn't even come close to describing this game. Playing for more than 1h straight should give you a thought about how addicting it is. I hate it, but I only quit because I needed to wash some dishes and not get kicked out of the house. Take this review as you may.
