I didn't get very well what was the point, looks funny though. I advanced some levels and got stuck :(
I like the filter effect you applied :)

cool idea. and very innovative, haven't seen anything like this before. the robot collective is good. maybe you can expand on this?

Nice strategy game :)
My only probably was that there were a few too many characters for me to care about managing. Perhaps only have a couple in the early levels and then as you go further you find new allies?

Brilliant entry!

Sometimes the portal goes missing. Nice idea though

@JosephLittle I think you are spot one :) Maybe if you could find capsules with more characters in? Thanks for the kind words :D

The filter is great and like the way you've given personality to the robots with the different names and little portraits.

Couldn't find any portals, but enjoyed mining - felt a bit like curiosity cube

Wow this game surprised me. I wasn't sure what to expect from the description and it quickly put a smile on my face while playing.

I like the simple concept and the way things work. The game is quite interesting and is really fun to play. You had me going there for quite sometime too.

I liked the writing it was humorous enough and the little "Ed" (I am guessing it is though) thing was a nice touch.

The overall sounds are OK, I'd love to see some music as it would give some extra atmosphere to the game.

I particularly loved the black and white worlds they looked cool XD.

One thing though, I'd love some explanation as to what each rock does, I had to guess a few of them but wasn't sure my guess was correct or not.

Well done game and great work! :D
