I did not really understood how the game works there isn't any explanation on what cards do and I didnt know you could zoom out. For the rest I liked the music and models look funny. I like the concept of placing cards that do actions. Well done.

I really liked the concept and the Ui was quite nice, I liked how you were able to change the actions of the robot whilst its moving. Overall a great game!

Developer

Thank you

Good game!

The graphics are quite good (especially on the card!), and i would’ve love to see a customly design UI, since it’s such a import part of the game ! The level design seems good enough, you show one card at a time, although having a description popping up when you get a new card you never saw would’ve been amazing to understand what they do ^^’. And I had troubles knowing I could move card during the play phase since the back slots for the cards get removed. I really like the fact that you did your music yourself! It fits, and the sound effets fits well. I must also notice the challenge there is of doing a 2D game-design but actually implement it in 3D. It add something, even if it makes it hard from time to time to see the environnement (spikes have the same color of the sky)

GG!

Thanks for the feedback, I'll post a new version with everything you described fixed and polished after this jam :)

Nice idea <3

i love it! the idea very cool!

Great concept, unique puzzles, and funny death animation. The Australian zoom took a bit to get used to, but other than that, it was a pretty good game!

Like the concepts, the puzzles are hard but doable, the music is catchy, overall good game, well done!

Nice game, I had a lot of fun playing! But i'm stuck in the level 6...

Developer

a lot of players were able to solve that level.

If you want I can tell you the solution :) 

Submitted

No thanks, i'll find the solution

Nice game with a great concept! I agree with the other comments that the levels are a little too long/slow, and I would have liked my cards to remain in place when I reset a level. And for the last level I would have liked an indication that I could use the explosion in a different way.

Submitted

The game was simple and the levels were straightforward and entertaining. Some of the bugs hampered my ability to finish the game but besides that, it was a good experience! Nice work!

Submitted

I feel like my experience was very hindered because I didn't know how to use the turn around card, but other than that good game!

Developer

This build works almost on all screens but some will have a problem with the aspect ratio (The jump card is too big on the first level). this was fixed here:

The game fits the theme pretty well, I like how the AI has a prominent role unlike a lot of other games this jam. One big thing I would suggest for the graphics is to just make the whole game 2d and use sprites (even if they aren't animated). That way it's much easier to make the graphics look clean. The robot sprite in the thumbnail looks pretty good. As far as the actual gameplay is concerned, it has some potential but there are a lot of small problems that add up:

  • There's a lot of dead space in the levels which means a lot of waiting for the robot to walk through them
  • The charge meter isn't really necessary but it can be frustrating if it runs out
  • The tiles disappearing every time you start the level even when you need to use them is kinda annoying and can be confusing if you don't realize you can move cards while the level is running
  • Some of the levels are a bit long, it can be really tedious to have to get multiple turn around dodges in a row while also dragging all the cards you need across the level
  • Every time you reset the level, all the cards go back in your hand so you have to place them back every time.

Most of these issues are very fixable, and I completely understand them with the intense time limit Lol.

This Game is really nice. I'm not the biggest Puzzle fan, but I still had some fun! ^^

Of course, the graphics could be much better, but they are good enough for a game jam.

The Music is nice and pretty fitting for the game.

I'd definitely like to see a bit more of this! :)

Submitted

I like the concept! My only suggestion would be to speed up the game. The levels look unnecessarily big, and the robot is already quite slow. But, overall, great game!

Congratulations on your submission!

the game is quite fun and i think it could be improved

  • inverted zoom felt weird first time playing
  • the robot flies out of orbit if it touched spikes or that bean thing in level 2
  • 3d environment is nice to look at

overall not a bad game

Developer

Why is the second point a bad thing lol

Submitted

its not necessarily a bad thing, just something you could fix if you have enough free time
