Energy Out by Govoroha

[raw]
made by Govoroha for Ludum Dare 51 (JAM)

EnergyOutговложка.png Energy out is a platformer in which 4 brave robots: a warrior, an archer, a magician and a necromancer have to overcome various obstacles. But every 10 seconds they turn off, because there is not enough energy in their batteries all the time. Each robot is designed for its own purposes: a warrior is stupid, he can only hit with his hand, an archer is fast and can shoot, a magician can drag objects to locations and disabled robots, and a necromancer can resurrect fallen comrades.

Controls: W,A,S,D and arrows - moving; Z, LMB - character's ability; space - jump; LMB and drag - moving objects for a mage.

UPD: Added english version!

Why the robots die I don't speak Russian

Sorry for the Russian, we didn't have time to translate the game((( Robots run out of battery every 10 seconds. A white skeleton-like robot is needed to recharge them.

I had to read the comment here to understand what to do, but it's a very cool idea. The models of the robots and the animation is really great.

@govoroha Really interesting game, I liked to sky fortress aesthetics. It ran a bit slow on my low end machine but can see where the idea was heading.

it is a really fun game to play, sort of fight with yourself, second level a little bit confusing, but looks awesome !

Interesting game! It's unfortunate there's no audio, I think it would add a lot. Regardless, well done!

Cool idea, kinda reminds of Trine but with a brutal 10 second timer.
I think the robots should have battery levels that deplete after 10 seconds, so that the timer isn't so punishing. Instead of killing the robot after 10 seconds, drain one level and maybe allow the player to manually shut down the robot to preserve battery. The gameplay would be the same, but the player will have more room to experiment and make mistakes before losing

A solid entry! I got a bit confused by the puzzles themselves, but the basic mechanics were very solid! The graphics are extremely charming. It's a classic issue, not having time for sound, so I sympathise there. I would have loved the ability to insta-drain a battery/just switch to another robot at my leisure, but I figured out that I could sort of do that by just resurrecting the robots I needed, so that was pretty cool! Overall, solid stuff. Well done!

Great entry. The game is fun and challenging. Robots dying is a bit odd. May be they go on a standby mode.

Great idea ! I felt that a bit more thoughts could have been put in the level design. For example a tutorial level to allow the player to experiment with the robots. Otherwise I found it quite fun. Well done !

Yeah, I just completed level 2! Nice concept and mechanics, with very cool robots too! Well done! And in level 2, the robot may stuck in some gaps.

I really like the concept of the game :) I also particularly loved how nice the animations look, however I think that for robots, the jumping is a bit too floaty! Great entry :)

Поиграл я. Интересный проект с необычным геймплеем. Я понял правила, как играть и поведение каждого персонажа, но мне было трудно определить какую-то стратегию, чтоб я мог идти вперёд. Я бы хотел вначале больше информаций и помощь. Тем не менее, мне очень понравилось. После немножко времени, я мог двигаться свободно, используя способности роботов… Движение персонажей круто. А звука нет? Вас поздравляю за то, что вы сделали. Вам желаю успехов. Спасибо за ваш комментарий ++

PS : Откуда вы друзья?

@govoroha Классно! Я бы хотел посетить Эрмитаж. Надеюсь, что смогу исполнить мое желание в будущем.
Я живу недалеко от границ с Германием и Люксембургом - точно в Шенген. Пока ++
