Ludum Dare #27compo
10 Second Robot
If the game doesn't run on your machine, download the love application here: https://love2d.org/ and then download the love.2d file. This also works on linux.
-------
You are the first hyper-intelligent humanoid robot.
Unfortunately you run out of battery every 10 seconds.
-------
Controll the robot with the left and right arrow keys. Jump with the up-key.
Pick up white energy to keep you battery charged, but watch out for the red energy which will drain your battery even quicker!

Doesn't run on my system. :( The screenshots look very nice though.

I enjoyed this once I figured it out. The game over message is delightful. :D

Need more things to do to be funny : another gameplay brick, or a better level design. The character is funny and the music is nice.

I would put tha character closer to the left edge of the screen.Gives the player more time to think.

I love your art and music, the art is a really cool kind of surreal and the music sounds like early 70's techno

Great visuals but the gameplay is a little simple. I also think the movement speed is a bit slow. Good attempt.
tiffi26 Aug 2013, 09:41
Loved the background and the player sprite

Hypnohustla26 Aug 2013, 09:56
It looks very nice. I loved the character. Maybe it needs some additional game mechanic to keep the player interested? Solid work though.

Nice game, fab graphics!

Fun game, great graphics and a cool soundtrack.

Lovely character!

Loved the visuals!

Cool graphics, cool idea. I wish there was some more variation.

BradleySmith26 Aug 2013, 22:08
Really nice visuals and aesthetic you have going. I made a game about a robot too. :)

Zuige26 Aug 2013, 22:10
Nice visuals but not very much to play here. Also, there's no way to reset game?
SasoriDama26 Aug 2013, 22:12
Nice looking game. It was kind of hard to see the batteries so you could pick them up. Good animations and backgrounds too.

I like the graphics (particularly the robot and the that background you've done is awesome) and LOVE the music like I think it's the best so far or close to it! Controls are a little bit frustrating, could do with working on the game feel in the post jam version and adding variety and difficulty to it.

That's a pretty awesome robot.
alts28 Aug 2013, 04:23
Mechanically very simple. I really live what you're doing with the blend modes in the background. It looks really nice.

Crowbeak29 Aug 2013, 12:25
I was streaming when I played your game: http://www.twitch.tv/crowbeak/c/2837159

Great Aesthetic overall. Would have liked the player to be closer to the left and faster as well. BTW, walking left also makes the number flip.

MuciojadPL29 Aug 2013, 15:51
Not bad. I like the main character, it's very pleasure. In the long run gets a bit boring, but like a 48 hours work is quite not bad :) ++ for good graphic style!

PaperBlurt30 Aug 2013, 12:20
real nice graphics. are you from sweden too Linus?

headchant31 Aug 2013, 11:19
Not a fan of the controls/physics in this one. Great graphics and ambience though.
GeorgeBroussard31 Aug 2013, 19:45
Nice art. Agree with others on the movement speed, etc. Just didn't feel right. Some places where you can't avoid a red dot. But, a very nice effort for 48 hrs and a nice base to build on. Keep going! Polish and add to it.
Jellycakes1 Sep 2013, 18:09
Really cool, like the aesthetics in the background, and the whole game kind of gives me machinarium vibes. Nice to play, a little frustrating when the character slows down however it still becomes enjoyable when the acceleration works in your favour. Good job on this.

Jupiter_Hadley2 Sep 2013, 22:32
Love the graphics and the game itself is pretty awesome. I featured it in my LD27 compilation video series, if you'd like to check it out :), http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W1OMEshCeQ0

I like the graphics, but that's pretty much the only thing I liked very much, it kind of drags on and it's really easy once you figure out how it works.. The music was just okay. So.. Thumbs up for graphics. I guess I'm going with the majority opinion here.
Jools644 Sep 2013, 13:10
This game has awesome graphics. I really like the details like the number on the character's face actually moving around. Unfortunately the game-play was a little uninteresting. Just collecting white orbs and avoiding red orbs got pretty repetitive.
All the same, great work. I loved the aesthetic!

Cute graphics, but not that interesting a concept. Powerups were kind of hard to make out.

Gaspard_5 Sep 2013, 17:08
Liked the graphics, but gameplay is a bit empty...
Nice Game over message!

Nice visuals, simple controls, pretty nice

Colapsydo6 Sep 2013, 09:42
The character and the background are wonderfull, it create a unique atmosphere. However I found really hard the way the hero just stop when you are not pushing the key anymore. With more fluidity it could be even more fun.
Is there an end ? I went till 266 seconds but the landscape was still changing.

I never knew carpets made tvs slow down that much ;-) The robot was too close to the right edge of the screen for me, that did make the game a lot more intense though.
Linus Lindberg6 Sep 2013, 19:37
@Colapsydo: There is no end but you can reach a point where it will run out of new objects in the background and there will just be empty sky :P

It felt like I was running through molasses. The music was pretty good and the visuals were pretty good.
kirbytails714 Sep 2013, 18:53
Not great gameplay-wise, but I like the backgrounds.






I like the main character.
The music is ok.
