My second LD game.

You are the spider-bot on hostile planet.
Your goal is to reach misteryous monolith, but you dont have enought energy.
Only way to reach it is to drain energy from other robots. But they will defend themselwes.

Controlls:

RMB - rotate camera

LMP - move/attack/drain

SPACE - load shields

Tools: Unity

Nice 3D animations! Movement feels a bit too slow.

Hard game :D I liked it. Same feeling about movements

Looks cool but controls are slow and kinda odd and combat is lacking. It doesn't feel like you're really fighting, you're just watching two robots fight.

Pretty good job It would be better if game had TPS camera movements, feel like need to put some more effort to look around :P Random head rotation of the spider was so fun.

Nice graphics, simple and straightforward game idea. The controls seem a bit slow. The lack of cover and different weapons make combat very hard and also very repetitive.

Nice game. Thoigh I didn't find an option to gracefully close it. :) Some UI button (at leas on endgame scree would help)

Very nice 3d models and animation. Needs to move faster and more variety in enemy placement, but the balance between activating shields, movement and attacking opponents to drain their powers makes for pretty intriguing gameplay.

Cool game! Really like the animation of the robot. The movement sound got very repetitive though and it was difficult to tell which way to go. Like the mechanic of having to drain your enemies. Good entry!

My head nooooo :) Cool game but the audio with an headset is really hard to support. The sound swapping from left to right was making me sea-sick. I had to remove my headset to keep playing :(

Very good looking entry! The animations are impressive. Cool gameplay idea, balancing energy to walk and to defend yourself. It takes a little bit too long to walk to the enemies imho. Also the walking audio got a little bit annoying after a while.
Very slick game, well done!

3D jam games seem rare, so very nice to see one here :) Good concept, definitely a good base for more to come? Maybe more missions, more enemies, more gadgets for the bot? Programmability? I'm excited if you let this game grow :)
I really enjoyed it and made it to the monolith ;)

Really nice idea and graphics. I found it very hard to progress very far. More feedback as to what is happening in combat could help.
