I really enjoyed this! Love the artwork and combat seems pretty solid, with the exception of a few weapons. I also love the little skill tree at the lab between plays so you can upgrade and get better each time. Feedback below:
THE GOOD:
1. Cute artwork and love, love, LOVE that we can customize our robot!
2. Sound effects match all the actions, and it never felt too quiet.
3. Skill tree! Plus the MARK shop was a nice feature!
4. I love the voice acting and MARK's humor, but the option to turn him off is a nice feature, as well.
5. Love that you have multiple buttons to fire and use skills. ABXY plus Right-Thumbstick and L/R Bumpers. Control options are nice!
FEEDBACK:
1. It would be nice to skip the preparation phase and let the next wave start.
2. The gun doesn't appear to hit enemies from a distance. Only if I'm right on top of them. Isn't this supposed to be a ranged weapon? Or is it more melee?
3. Flamethrower is nice, but it felt like enemies needed to be closer. The end of the flame hit them and did not damage. Either the hitboxes are off... or maybe the animation needs shortened? That part threw me off.
Other than that... I really enjoyed the game! Very well done. I'll keep an eye on this one :-)
