Fun game!

It took looking at the comments here to figure out the color coding for the vents. Maybe Change the hint up a little bit that you need a "specific" robot?

Very nice! I like the idea of playing music to haunt things. The game was also gracious with time, which was nice, because I didn't realize the vents were color-coordinated at first, haha. Overall, good work!

Super charming game! Great art style and music, and cool that you were able to pack in a bunch of different mechanics. The only trouble I had was realizing the vents were tied to specific bots, but once I got that it was a breeze.

Your game looks so great, but unfortunately I have low fps (even with low quality) un my Computer. But to be honest - it is a few years old

Thanks for the feedback!
I think I can improve it in a couple of areas like LOD and baking lights.

Love the concept, would love to see this expanded. I sadly couldn't figure out where the purple key was. I visited all the vents and doors I had access to.

Hi! Glad you like it! 
Oh the robots, yeah! it's been a pain point, I think I can help it by adding a dialog once you possess it or make the camera pan to the right location.  I wonder if I can fix it, according the rules.

Music, sound effects, and art style are all really good. The game has a cool, unique premise; it would be neat to see it expanded into a full game. I did have some issues with the vents, however. It wasn't clear where they were. It would be nice if they stood out more against the general scenery.  Also, it wasn't clear that each vent required a specific robot. That took some time to figure out.

Thanks for the kind words and support on seeing this expanded! 
The roombas, my challenge remain on having better communication, hope you manage to complete it. I have a couple of ideas how to fix it, like you said, it needs to stand out.

game ran slow and couldn't find the vents, which is a shame because the idea is killer

Hi, mmm did you try lowering the quality setting on the bottom right? 

Solution on the vents... haunt the roomba in the center and go to the left, near the red door; then haunt the roobma near the red door and go to the right next to the purple door.

I did lower the quality. I'll try your tip out later because I do want to see how this ends

Oh, did you tried changing the quality settings on you bottom right to Low?

Reply
Alon ChechikSubmitted3 years ago

I tried that, it reduces lag but not enough for it to be playable to me, the game looks really cool i believe its a problem with my pc and not the game. Best of luck!!

Haha, such a unique idea! Thought it was great, although I wasn't able to get in the vents with the robots. Any hints?

Thanks for playing it! Well, you need to be close to them, hit space and complete the music sequence. Then it will show an icon above it so you can drive it.
Look for the vent on the Left and the one on the right, the black robot is just a threat, but the other two can go through the vents. 

Now.... if you want the solution.... Left Robot to the right vent... middle robot to the left vent...

Ahh, got it. I always tried using the robots closest to the vent! I noticed that when I explored with the red robot this time, the vent did highlight red, I guess I didn't explore enough the first time around :P

Glad you found the solution, my biggest challenge was how can I communicate how the roombas work.  Guess I do a better job next time.
