We are two university students who try to make games, we are working with unity for a year. This is our first ludum dare game and our first game we made together.In Robot Head the goal is finding your body parts and escaping the tower.
[A-S] Movement | [Space] Jump | [Left Mouse Button] Fire
*Moving and shooting consumes your power.
*You can consume enemies' power by shooting them.
*Platforms have different power levels, Use them wisely.
The game is fun but i've been quicly blocked. At the end of the first line, i'm on a platform and the next one is to my left. But you souldn't be a victim of my nulity. The theme is perfectly respected by the way.
I really liked the style and art of your game. The first level was way too difficult and long, checkpoints would help with this. I would suggest to design your earlier levels in such a way that teaches the player the mechanics by having them interact with your game rather than blatantly telling them what to do. Congratulations on making a complete game!
Awesome graphics and sound design! Controls are a bit too unresponsive, i think character has too much inertia, but you can master it after some time. Health indicators directly at enemies sprites is a nice touch. This game is actually pretty difficult. Not because of enemies, but because of platforms placement and controls. Anyway, I enjoyed it, nice game!
Actually, screens shows that later in the game you have some kind of robot legs, but never got past platforms directly after beginning. This controls are difficult.
Cool art style and nice concept the "energy stealing" shoot. But the game has an important problem. The movement is very slippery. You can even slip off a platform unless you land in the center. This is problematic, especially for a game where your moves are limited.
Nice pixel-art! Getting a real '90s vibe here :smile: I'm a bit disappointed that I couldn't rate the cool, fitting music as well.
About the difficulty; Yes it's hard (especially as I'm mousing with my left hand for now), but I wasn't really *stuck* at all; each time I played I got a little further (which is still not out of level 1, but whatevs.).
A small thing: The third and fourth '?' signs can be a bit hard to read as they're on single-width poles.
