I actually did a video capture so I can look back on this one for inspriration.
Besides that, that's a unique gameplay style, I've never seen anything like that before. Music was cute, character art was great.
Only thing I didn't like is that sometimes it felt like I was winning because of luck
from comments: I would like to see the number of lives of my robot, as well as the timer of launching arrows. Because without them it's hard to guess when something is going on in the game.
Great job!
A health bar for the character would be nice tho.
A polished mini strategy game. Well done.
Strangely I really liked how the player looped back to the beginning and applied the new skills the player learned to levels that were previously challenging.
The gameplay is also unique and interesting, and I enjoyed trying to master it. I do kind of wish my little robot guy would start shooting faster, but I think with a little tweaking and balancing, this game is well on its way to being something retail worthy. :)
Nice tune!
One thing that'd make it more playable would be cover ( either solid or destructable , space invaders style ) , as on the level in this screenshot, I got hit from every angle when the enemy bullets just went through the walls. There's no real tactics here. :frowning2:

Very good overall. Had fun playing it and would gladly play more levels!
