Roborally hostage drama!\nI had fun trying to figure out how to solve the situations.\nIt didn't occur to me how rockets work until I made a mistake and fininshed the level anyway :D Some more transparens to the player about the rules, like number of shots in the MG mag and also how many rockets if you mount the launcher.\nIt was a little quiet in the game, but I guess you had no time to fix music and more ambience.\nDrag and drop on the commands would have made life easier!\nAll in all, this was fun, and I liked the puzzle solving.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":938385,"author_name":"LDJam user 280707","author_uid":"280707","epoch":1682968474,"text":"Pretty cool game! My only point of feedback would be that the machine gun shouldn't be so RNG dependent. I had a few levels where I tried a solution, and it didn't work, so I'd move on to trying other things, only to re-input the exact same solution multiple more times, and it'd eventually work.\n\nEither make the machine gun have a maximum range, or make it always hit. Especially with the setup reverting after every attempt, there shouldn't be any RNG there.\n\nWith that aside, it was a lot of fun! Pretty unique, and I had a fun time solving the puzzles!","format":"md","likes":3,"spam":"N"},{"id":938987,"author_name":"cavedens","author_uid":"cavedens","epoch":1682975571,"text":"Interesting concept. its fun to program a drone for destruction :D","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":948407,"author_name":"Tnnv","author_uid":"tnnv","epoch":1683045204,"text":"@wighz Thank you!

The reasoning, especially on level 3, was very satisfying. At first I disliked only being able to look through the cameras, but by the end I'd started to appreciate it. There is a bug with the Continue button but it's easy to circumvent by going to the main menu. I hope we get an expanded version of this sometime down the road!","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":956106,"author_name":"Tnnv","author_uid":"tnnv","epoch":1683113128,"text":"@chucks-feed-and-seed Thank you, that's really pleasant to hear!

I appreciated how the puzzles could be thought out before clicking \"run\". In programming games, I generally have to do more trial and error to find the answer. The choice of modules was fun too. It added to the complexity of the puzzle without adding noise.\n\nI liked looking through the different cameras. This isn't something I've seen before. It was a great tool to explore the level, and it went well with the robot escape theme. I think that mechanic was underused.\n\nThere was no risk to hit hostages. They were in the level, but I don't think there was a situation where collateral damage was possible.\n\nThe rocket made sense, but it took me a while to realise how I needed to use it.\n\nNormally, I think an entry should try to enable as many ratings categories as possible, but by focusing on the core game, you made something really good.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":973487,"author_name":"snakemuho","author_uid":"snakemuho","epoch":1683487170,"text":"I feel like my iq increased by a couple of points by the level 3 and level 5 solutions","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":973511,"author_name":"Tnnv","author_uid":"tnnv","epoch":1683488079,"text":"@profugo-barbatus, @mastoast, @pincushion, @snakemuho Thank you a lot for feedback!

Hostages are indeed underused in current levels - the only way to hurt them is to use the rocket, but I'm planning better integrate them into puzzles further.","format":"md","likes":2,"spam":"N"}],"format":"md","images":["ld53\/wayback-placeholder.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1XyDrZkC5uAQxDRilfzWDEsjhVaTFd-O8\/view?usp=sharing","text":"Link"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"68153","g_author":"1360075","g_event":"LD53","g_eventkey":"118","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"291900","g_title":"CQB drone trials","g_status":"WAYBACK","g_place":"99999","g_commentcount":"19","g_site2_node_id":"360999","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"360999","n_urlkey":"291900","n_parent":"332127","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/53\/cqb-drone-trials","n_slug":"cqb-drone-trials","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"compo","n_author":"360075","n_created":"0","n_modified":"0","n_version":"1113941","n_status":"WAYBACK"},"node":{"id":360999,"parent":332127,"_superparent":9,"author":360075,"type":"item","subtype":"game","subsubtype":"compo","published":"2023-04-30T14:13:34Z","created":"2023-04-29T09:26:15Z","modified":"2023-05-01T15:47:18Z","_trust":1,"version":1113941,"slug":"cqb-drone-trials","name":"CQB drone trials","body":"In this game (or rather game prototype) player is presented with a series of trials for a modular CQB police drone.\nHe needs to assemble the drone and input a series of commands for the drone to complete objective - eliminate all the threats avoiding any damage to hostages.","scope":"public","node-timestamp":"2023-04-30T18:30:08Z","meta":{"author":[360075],"grade-04-out":"1","cover":"\/\/\/content\/b8e\/75\/z\/5827e.jpg","allow-anonymous-comments":"1","grade-06-out":"1","grade-07-out":"1","grade-08-out":"1","link-01":"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1XyDrZkC5uAQxDRilfzWDEsjhVaTFd-O8\/view?usp=sharing","link-01-tag":[42337],"grade-05-out":"1"},"meta-timestamp":"2023-05-01T01:55:19Z","path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/53\/cqb-drone-trials","parents":[1,5,9,332127],"files":[{"id":12750,"author":360075,"node":360999,"tag":0,"name":"Drone.zip","size":186324805,"timestamp":"2023-04-30T14:03:40Z","status":0},{"id":12873,"author":360075,"node":360999,"tag":0,"name":"Drone.zip","size":186601529,"timestamp":"2023-04-30T18:26:08Z","status":0},{"id":12875,"author":360075,"node":360999,"tag":0,"name":"Drone.zip","size":186601529,"timestamp":"2023-04-30T18:32:30Z","status":9}],"files-timestamp":"2023-04-30T18:32:30Z","love":0,"comments":1,"comments-timestamp":"2023-05-01T15:47:18Z","grade":{"grade-01":1,"grade-02":1,"grade-03":1},"magic":{"cool":0,"feedback":0,"given":0,"grade":1,"smart":0},"_wayback":{"timestamp":"20230501173628","url":"https:\/\/api.ldjam.com\/vx\/node2\/get\/354295+354590+355726+365269+342738+357953+354812+334586+365516+337689+349878+336624+366127+366154+342965+365929+366213+354564+360999+351980+365343+366075+356143","source":"global-node-catalog"}},"text":"In this game (or rather game prototype) player is presented with a series of trials for a modular CQB police drone.\nHe needs to assemble the drone and input a series of commands for the drone to complete objective - eliminate all the threats avoiding any damage to hostages.","title":"CQB drone trials","wayback_recovered":true,"wayback_source":{"timestamp":"20230501173628","url":"https:\/\/api.ldjam.com\/vx\/node2\/get\/354295+354590+355726+365269+342738+357953+354812+334586+365516+337689+349878+336624+366127+366154+342965+365929+366213+354564+360999+351980+365343+366075+356143","source":"global-node-catalog"}}
