It's easy to get lost, when I first had the opportunity to "deploy the new robot", I had no clue what I was doing neither where I was ; I couldn't even tell if I finished the first level and went to the next ...
Otherwise, the robot is easy and fun to control, good job!
Given the slower pace, I think there's a pretty big mistake here in the design, which is making me repeat the same play area over and over. I played two levels repeatedly, then died to the bee because it attacked me before I could charge my gun. This happened twice and I was sent back to the beginning. And not only do I have to replay the same level, but the disks I have scanned already have come back, so I need to go through "side quests" and not just proceed to the exit. Combined with the slower pace of the game... well, it's a tough mix! Methodical gameplay can be fine, but it doesn't bear repetition well imo.
I think there's a really cool sense of unique character to this game and I would have loved to explore more of it. But when I get trapped and my slow-repsonse controls make it easy to die (eg fall in a pit w/ two snails) then it's so extremely disheartening to restart from the beginning. Sorry!
Very strong on the execution side here, I'm sad I wasn't able to really sink my teeth in and explore this world some more.
Cool game :)
Every time i get 8 data points before i die... means a lot of runs before i can level up.
