Really enjoyed the game. It's a bit easy atm with the slow detection rate, and smokescreen doesnt seem to do anything besides adding a visual smoke effect. But aside from slight balancing / tweaking its a great game imo.

If I had one glaring issue, it was that I couldn't find a way to return to the main menu, so in order to try out all the characters I had to reopen the page in the browser. That said, well done. Very well put together game. I'll have to go back and check out the game this one is based on.

Very interesting idea and fun gameplay. An odd combo that works surprisingly very well. Could've used a bit more sounds though.

Really liked the game and pretty cool idea. Last level was pretty challenging, but very nice aswell. Btw great ending!

This is a really interesting combination of genres, good fun. A couple of issues, firstly no way back to main menu to try out the different characters and I think a little information about each ability would be useful. The robot in particular I couldn't work out what it did until suddenly a box blew up and I realised.

I found easy to get into it, in some way is like a shooter on rails - great for mobile.

It's a good mix of genre! the difficulty kinda shots up when you get to the last part of the levels though :(

I didn't manage to finish it. It was tough! Fun though!

Great game! Especially level 3 is very challenging, and I feel like you get too punished for shooting/shouting/etc (as the red bar fills up fairly quickly). Another thing I would like to mention is that it wasn't quite clear to me what (if any) the benefits were when shouting or demoleculerasing. Overall very good game though, and definitely one of the best I've seen this LD!
