Developer

thanks)

I had a lot of fun playing this.  The robot was super cute and I enjoyed the universe hopping.  I think that giving  the user the option to click to make the arm extend and unextend would make the controls more intuitive.  Nice game! 

Developer

Thank you for your feedback. I'll do it after the jam

Submitted

Controlling the Robot is sooooo hard. It made me want to quit after 2 minutes. I like the idea a lot and it has potential though. Just make it easier and more intuitive to control.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, can you tell me more about the problem keys?

Submitted

It was hard to get used to the robot moves but then it turns very funny.

I like the way it transports to another dimension to reach their goals.

It was hard to find the 4th piece. Sometimes it gets buggy because the coliision mechanics and the arm cannot be shrinked.

Nice work!!!

Developer

thanks, arm can be shrink, just move the cursor over player

Submitted

kinda fun game , at first the bugs annoyed me but I got used to the mechanics after a while , good job :)

Developer

thanks!

Can you tell more about bugs? I need it to improve my game

Submitted

yes , while holding a cube with the hand , especially with longer hand , it went crazy when it collided with walls .

Developer

Thanks, I'll try to fix it

The game is pretty fun, although the idea of dimension travelling is kinda repetitive (Breaking Dimension, another game in the jam has this idea). The art is lacking and could use some improvements. Sometimes, the gameplay is confusing: I couldn't find the last box in the first level and the introduction of the dimension travelling was introduced kinda poorly.

Overall, good job, a lot of things to improve

Developer

thanks. I'll improve all by the time.

Consider checking out our game too!

Very cool idea. The arm extension mechanic is very cool. Movement is smooth, however I wasn't able to shrink the arm back.Made it pretty buggy. Still very fun though!

Developer

To shrink the arm back you just need to move the cursor over player and hold E button
