You should add more levels and release a post-compo!"},{"author_name":"mlepage","author_uid":"61867","time":"Dec 15, 2015 @ 3:42am","epoch":1450150620,"text":"The dancing robot with headphones was just great. Nice dialogue, I like the bit about &quot;budget cuts.&quot; All in all colourful and fun.

I love the excessively pleased face of your radio contact as he lays down the news of budget cuts, while the robot coolly grooves to the music. And the beat-sync is a nice touch too, by the way. Good job!"},{"author_name":"Windmill Games","author_uid":"39002","time":"Dec 15, 2015 @ 1:39pm","epoch":1450186440,"text":"Good job with the audio, the track along with the humorous dialogue and nice art give the game a very nice and unique feel! It really is one of those games that plays a ton better than screenshots give it credit for.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The only downside is that it was short, but I guess that in it self is good critique, wanting to play more :D"},{"author_name":"SamH","author_uid":"26183","time":"Dec 17, 2015 @ 12:59am","epoch":1450313640,"text":"A bit short, even for a compo entry, but I liked the music.

A scientist will guide you by radio as you explore and discover.

The whole thing can be completed in a couple minutes. Hopefully I'm better during the next competition and can concentrate on more game content.\r\n\r\nThank you for playing my game!\r\n\r\nAs stated in the Compo rules, I created all music, graphics, and code during the 48 hours.\r\n - Music was done in Renoise.\r\n - Graphics were done in Piskel and GIMP.\r\n - Code was written in Neovim.\r\n - My game uses the excellent LOVE2D (http:\/\/love2d.org) graphics\/sounds library.\r\n","title":"Robot Explorer"}
