This was a very well done game. Very few bugs that I could see. All I found were that the camera could go inside houses and the health/ammo bar would go inside rocks. My only complaints are that it's too easy. the enemies simply aren't difficult to fight. Would be cool to see more difficulty scaled as you went on. Great job!

Amazing game! Cool graphics and gameplay. The best part though, is enemy creatures. Boss seems very complex. I noticed that you can shoot through the doors if you stay close.

@kyle-bowman, thanks for playing our game :3
We tried to make it a bit easier so more players would complete it, and probably went a bit too much

It's just a short fun little game that works with the theme well. No issues except for the game drags a little bit especially having to wait for the outlets to drain. Wish when you drained the outlets it got crazy like a horde in L4D instead of just sitting there waiting.

awesome style, fun gameplay, good music and overall concept. but if I had to neatpick i would say that camera movement limitations(only left and right and not up and down) weren't needed i think. i wanted to look around the map, sky and stuff. and another thing was that I would have gotten more then 2000 if not that 1000 energy limit. Overall awesome game!

Very nice! The most action packed and adrenaline pumping game I played today. The soundtrack was awesome! The only change I would made is A: Make the game shorter or B: Bring more gameplay variations to the table. The way it is now, it overstays it's welcome a little. After entering the City-Level, I had the feeling, that I've seen everything the game has to offer. Weapon variations would've been awesome. The weapon you have is kindo overpowered with it's range, speed and accuracy. It's basically a walk the park. Add some challanges, keep the player on it's toes :)

Nontheless, awesome entry. I'd say it was even the best I played so far today.

Wow, incredible result ! I did not expect the level to be that long, with a final boss and explosion and all :)
That was very fun to play, a bit too easy as others already said. I love the graphics, it reminds me of old Windows 95 games. I don't know how you manage to create this gigantic level in 72 hours, you must have some kind of level editor I guess. The boss model details was very impressive too.
Potential bugs I notice: the plugs don't like vertical slopes and get stuck easily, the ennemy attacks the machine but it looks like it is invincible ?

@piggles
Yeah, we know about waiting for charge problem, it was planned to add after the boss and we simply ran out of time
Thanks for playing.

The game totally got me for the graphics, the style kinda reminds me of 'Megaman Legends' (which is always a good thing!). My feedback has been already said, the camera went into buildings sometimes and the level feels a bit long and repetitive (I don't mind having a shorter level for a jam game), but you guys did a good job overall, playing this was fun, instructions are clear and fits the theme.

Oh! And I really like the way the HUD is shown, it blends with the game.

This game is perfect. There are important MEGAMAN/ROCKMAN feeling in 3D ! A few bug with HUD which stay behind wall when camera move but its nothing. The retro style is perfect, the music is perfect, the game play is so cool and original !!! I love it !!! (maybe too easy) ![megaa.jpg](///raw/bc3/41/z/32ffb.jpg)

Good game, simple art style but it really works well !
It wouldn't have bothered me if the game was a little bit harder.
Nice job overall, keep it up !

Yes! An old school style graphics... I actually enjoyed the game and it was fun! and funny... there are a few bugs like the spring joint of the plug is a bit annoying and the enemy when it closer to the power core, it's rotation are going crazy like sometimes floating or airwalk, etc. And the gameover screen scared me a bit, like why you instantly make the screen appeared and stops the music, that time I was focusing killing some bad dudes and then boom dark lose screen lol. Overall the game is very fun to play, idk why but this is the best fun game to play with for a game jam so far! it would be great to see this in multi-player game.

Fun game, like the art! I found the battery getting stuck in corners a little annoying.

Pulling the battery around was a little frustrating, but overall fun game!

Really cool game, amazing work for 3 days. But way too easy for my taste. And maybe a bit faster movement and abilities to dash, roll etc. instead of making the game so long...
But no flame, still amazing entry! :D
