Looks like some conceptual piece. Mantained me entertained at least. The simple gameplay stile, raw as it is, fit very well tith the game too. I would make the text slower. Is hard to read. Also you used Love engine, me too used a lua based platform(Tic80).

It's a neat take on the theme. There's some repetition in there that normally might be unpleasant but I think it really drives home the Vacummba experience and solidifies this game for the stuck in a loop theme. Well done!

I was not expecting ending. A nice simple story based game.

Cool little experience ^^

There is a little bug if you try to continue up instead of jumping when on the desk (it made me restart from the beginning twice):

Error

map.lua:15: attempt to index a nil value

Traceback

map.lua:15: in function 'isWalkableAt'
main.lua:222: in function
main.lua:265: in function
[C]: in function 'xpcall'

Just a little glitch, but I thought you should know :)

Neat game. The way the text scrolls is a bit weird.

Very good written story, I almost immediately felt where it going, and it become sad, but there is a hope (not for humanity, tho). As for game, it is very simple, I'd say its VN genre. Art is simple but pleasant, and robot has great personality. Good work.

This was a funny game. I always love games with a story and an ending. Tough to do in a game jam time frame. All in all this was great work and I was glad to help Roo....errr.Vacuumba(tm) fly! Great work!

Simple and fun! But the story is a little bit sad :(
