Great atmosphere! Reminded me of Shadowrun games for some reason :) I liked your work with lights, especially! Thanks for a Linux build. We also made a game for LD46 in Godot engine!

I really liked the atmosphere the audio and lighting created. Solid entry! And quite challenging.

Challenging. Always seem to lose one mainframe easily. Is there a way to turn them back on? Loved the little passages when you can hide forever.

The graphics and lighting is great, and the music complements the atmosphere very well. A small criticism I have is that the turrets feel quite underpowered, and I found that usually I was better off just punching the drones, so they either need some re-balancing or I just didn't get the mechanic fully :P. I also absolutely love Keep the IT Alive.

I won :p That was nice. Cool lighting. It creates an interesting mood combined with your music.

Interesting game, Turrets feels overpowered to me since they can't be destroyed

Interesting game, pretty challenging. The atmosphere was great, it's good to have a tutorial at the beginng even though I had some trouble figuring out I had a character I could move around.

Beautiful, short Jam-Game. I think the length of the game was just perfect for a Jam. I liked the Idea and how you delivered it. The Music and Soundeffects are really cool, the Graphics and animatons are just onpoint. At some point it was a little to easy. In the end I just placed Cannons in front of the portals and there wasn´t much else to do then, even though I lost one PC in the beginning. Well Done, Thank you :)

The idea is good, the controls are good except for attack - spacebar. I feel that mouse click for attack may have been better. The graphics and sounds are cool :ok_hand:

Very fun! It's really satisfying to smack those things with my keyboard for some reason, even if that is mostly a backup to the turrets. I didn't realize there was a second computer until it was too late to save it, but I did alright just focusing on the one anyway. I love the moody lighting as well and the music is great. Great work overall!
