I really like this concept. The vacuum cleaner was cute enough to make me care for him.\n\nThe drone was _very_ fragile and hard to control, this made it a good challenge and fun to play. The random room generation was a nice touch!\n\nThe vacuum sound became old very quickly and I would liked to see some more sound effects, like for example when the drone crashes! a bit of music would not hurt  either. :laughing: \n\nOVERAL: \ud83d\udc4dvery well done by focusing on the gameplay, I enjoyed learning the controls and feeding the vacuum! this game has a lot of potential. in the future maybe you can add more obstacles like a cat who likes to hunt the drone or even more furniture.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"tomdeal","author_uid":"1005275","time":"2020-04-20T12:42:04Z","epoch":1587386524,"modified":1587386524,"text":"It's like flying a real drone, I keep collecting the debris :-) It's a real challenging but fun game.

I have a few points though:\n\n\u2022 The controls are a bit laggy, it takes a while for the drone to respond after you start moving. Not necessarily a bad thing, it makes the game a bit more challenging, but you can increase the difficulty in other ways without messing up the controls.\n\n\u2022 The game punishes way too hard, I have a health bar on the side of the screen that is just for show, the drone breaks immediately after one hit, come on allow me to make more mistakes and hit more stuff please.\n\n\u2022 The sound is great but it repeats a lot, after a while it ended up being quite annoying and stressful.\n\nThose are just minor details that could easily be solved with more time for play testing and designing, it doesn't make the game unplayable or bad in anyway.

Controls are something I wish I would have spent more time tightening up. Along with a more forgiving crash model that would drain drone battery rather than just make the thing explode (however I did enjoy it at the time when it would crash into a bunch of pieces!). I agree that the sound is repetitive. I recorded it all with my own devices and that is on me for not getting more done!
