My first Ludum Dare game! I am quite happy with the result :)

You are a robot, lost in the wilderness. Take the right path through each level so you can get to the next source of power
before your energy is depleted. But be careful, here be predators!

Can't run it - no data folder?

Can't play: "There should be 'Pathfinder complete_Data' folder next to the executable"

Same issue as Sivael

Can't play! You need to package the Data folder with the .exe if using Unity

Same issue, you should select both the data file and the .exe file and send them to a zipped folder, then re-upload that :)

Get an error, and can't play.

Same thing here. I even tried creating a folder with that name, just in case, without luck

Yay, I'm glad you got this playable! You're not the first, and you won't be the last to make that error, it's all good.

Cute graphics, cute concept (I like it a lot), nice interpretation of theme. I wouldn't mind being able to move with the keyboard, but that's a very minor thing :) Good work!

I'm happy at least most people had the sense not to downvote the game when they couldn't play it :D

Wow! What a shame that this was not working at first, it is done really well! I am impressed at how interesting all the levels are considering you only had 48 hours! The game is at its best when plan, wait, and dodge an incoming enemy. I think I made it on my last jump multiple times. Music and death sound are nice and subtle, which I think is good for puzzle games. Great submission.

Great job with this game. The concept worked nicely and the levels were really well made. The "dance" you had to do around enemies felt very satisfying. I wish there were more levels because they were fun to play.

Ye i kinda regret that i spent the last two hours playing overwatch because i was tired, it would have been so easy for me to add more because of the system i implemented to make new levels!

But yeh as i said i was tired xD

I would love too see this fleshed out into a larger release. Very fun puzzle game, and the levels were just the right amount of challenging. Amazing job!

I'm a A* algorithm :D

This is a cool concept, and a nice use of the theme.

What I liked:

* The increasing difficulty
* The increasing amount of tiles on a map
* The relaxing music

What could be better:

* Your resolution is fixed, making the game super small on my screen.
* The sound on/off button is a bit slow to react
* A nice addition would be to allow keyboard wasd / arrow key to move

The idea is interesting, and executed nice. No much bad to say about it except the fact that you could add arrow and wsad controls. The levels are fun and get more challanging at the nice pace. I encourage you to continue this idea, it may turn out really great with more polish!

I liked it! The puzzles were nice, there was a twist in every level, and you can plan your moves from the beggining, giving it extra strategy points!

The music is fitting, the art is well made and the puzzles are well balanced!

You only lack the main menu. Other than that, it's great! Well done! :smile:

Love it. It reminds me the path finding course during class, but with cool graphism on it ;-)
Keep moving forward.
