Really great start here! I think with a little more polish, this could be something stellar. First off, the pixel art is super charming! Although, many things were a little small. I also often had a hard time with the controls. Attacking felt pretty unresponsive, I had a hard time getting the robot to attack where I was going, sometimes he wouldn't at all if i hit the button and if I did get an attack out, there wouldn't be much in the way of feedback to show that I hit something. I love the idea of charging an attack, but I had a hard time telling if i was actually charging anything, even looking at the HUD. The hud is a bit cluttered, and after playing 5 or so rounds, i still couldn't really get a feel for how energy worked. Honestly, if you tightened the feel of attacking, you'd have something really special here! The game sounds great and has a super cool aesthetic, and with some tweaking the gameplay could really help it shine!
