Very cool game! I like the command line for moving the robots and the changing camera for individual bots was neat.

The ending was more confusing than intriguing to me though. :/

Little confusing, but loved it. it has a unique way to play. And one by one you start understanding the different command lists and what could be applied for each system. One thing Iw as looking for, a space between my last command, and the new results, so it makes it easy to understand easily where is the new outputs, just few line breaks would made it easier.

Cool little idea! I like the idea of "remote controlling" the robots through a terminal. Flesh this out more!

This was a really neat little game, great concept! The ending is really depressing, but the mood is set super well! I wish it could have been longer, but other then that, awesome work!

Awesome mood and atmosphere! I love how you used the the terminal interface to interact with the game, transition between levels, and deliver the story, all very efficiently and seamlessly. Great work!

This is really cool! I love the terminal interface - I definitely pushed the game above and beyond a simple block-pushing puzzle. Connecting to different robots via the terminal is such a concrete-feeling way to switch levels, and I really enjoyed learning the new capabilities each time. I got a strong Portal vibe from it all, including the intriguing ending (though I'm not quite sure I was really able to put the pieces together on what happened.) Great job overall!

ahh yeah! I loved this one, sometimes I got stuck sometimes when moving towards a non pushable block. Great concept and game. Good job!!

An interest puzzle game, it would be great to have some extra tricks.

Really interesting game, a lot of potential to create really challenging puzzles! I loved everything about it! My only complaint was maybe you could parse command so you could be able to type “m1” instead of “m 1”.

Great game and great mood. I have found a random bug on the second level that for some reason the game stopped to respond to commands except "Help". No problem on the second playtrough

Fantastic! Great "mood" you set here, the robot part is fun (if a little slow ^^). Overall, really really great. The audio is top notch, the graphics are good, the writing is great, it's just a really great game.

Congrats!

Pretty interesting concept for a game, although the puzzle action felt a bit ordinary the command line interface gave it a real nice twist. Would be cool if there was some programming sections although that might be too challenging. Nice graphics and atmosphere, and cool that you even included some storyline too.

Good job, great work on the puzzle design and game mechanics too. At first, checking only those black screens felt a bit like "wtf?", then I started inputting these commands and things started happening and bling! Good job with the graphics and audio, both work really nice and do set some really great mood for the game!

Good Luck there! Cheers!
