Presentation

The graphics are very original! I realy like it, but a litle bit short :)

The movement is kinda glitchy at time, but it's a well made puzzle game!

- Super nice in play intro and gameplay introduction at the beginning :).
- The climbing/pushing speed seems a little bit slow some times.
- At first it was not 100% clear that i can "escape" by going back to start.
- Nice sliding animation on the player.
- Music is great, sets the right mood.
- Soundeffects of the robot are also nice, maybe a little to load compared to the music.
- Good level design!

Overall a pretty nice game!
Good job!

Thank you @macibacsi56, indeed, we had a few more levels designed in our hat but we choose to draw the entire level (and not use a tilemap). The final rendering is awesome I think, but at the end we don't have a lots of level to present as the process to finish one level is very long.

The limited ability to use items makes the passage of the game more interesting. Nice character animation. I like how the training was implemented during the game.

@euske Thank you :) . What do you mean by glitchy? Is the gameplay impacted?

@chtimy when I press a block under another block, I got stuck in kinda a weird way and had to restart it. Not much impact on the overall gameplay.

Nice fun game.
I love the graphics.
The animation for the rope is smooth.

But i think it need to be clear that we have to come back at the top.

Great Game ! The levels are done intelligently and are challenging. Maybe a button to restart the current level could be great but the game is fun to play (i'm in love with the slide animation !). Good job to the team, it's a very good game !

@shin0nome Thank you for you feed back, I am glad you liked it.
You can reset the current level on the pause menu (escape button).

I really enjoyed this. The character is cute and the art style in general is charming. I like the hand-drawn feel of the robot. The backgrounds have an interesting dreamlike quality which is accentuated by the lovely music. It all combines to create a really great mood.

Nice work on it, I had a lot of fun.

I really love the cute character and animations. It feels like playing a full flashed game, not only LD entry. The controls are also nice and responsive. Gameplay is simple enough but fun :)

Ooh, the rope/ladder placement is a nice idea! I'm so used to platforming without having to think about these things that this took some real thought lol. I also really like the environmental art, along with LuK-2000's animations. Very charming - nice work!

Fun mecanics!

The animations are really nice and the movement and platforming were fluid.

Beautiful art and cool sounds. I found the gameplay a little frustrating for some of the reasons folks said above - the guy was sometimes very slow, and it wasn't always clear what the various tools or boxes were for until you'd already blown it, which then required some repetitive play bogged down by the slowness again. But it was smooth and pretty and eventually made sense, and the whole thing is very impressive.

Thank you :D!

Nice game, I like the graphics, the animations, the overall mood and the puzzle design. However, I ran into some glitches with the rope - sometimes when I try to deploy the rope, it doesn't hang and just stays in a knot.

Thank you @kr0s !
It's a known glitch, I believe that happens when you deploy a rope and jump/fall at the same time :(

I'm not an experienced gamer (I prefer point&click quests) so had to ask my husband to play the game. At level 1 we couldn't use the ladder but got through with 2 ropes.

I like the character and music) Felt a bit frustrated about the time the game loaded (macOS Big Sur, Chrome).

Overall, good job!

Great work! I adore the visuals, the painted backgrounds are wonderful and the robot is adorable, love the win screen at the end of a level :D The little noises the robot makes add a lot to his character and the overall feel of the game. The sound design is great. The world feels alive.

I enjoyed the puzzles though I do agree with others that some of the animations are a bit too slow. Regardless I had fun, great game!

Thank you @natalia-dushkina, we did not try on Mac os unfortunely :/ , why could'nt you use the ladder in first level?

Thank you @pnkvrt , it's our wonderful @ptitbouchon who make those beautiful assets and animations!
Yes it's a little bit slow especially when we restart the level. Next time we will pass more time on gameplay feeling.

@chtimy we just coudn't put it where we wanted, e.g. I could put it only too far from the place it would be useful.

Nice game, loved the art and general aesthetics! I had a few issues with the rope (like if it was stuck at the same level of the player) but other than that it's pretty enjoyable, congrats!

@natalia-dushkina, ok I note what you say for potential improvements.

@kotzi Thank you for your feedback. Yes it is when you are deploying the rope while you start falling, the rope detects the character not the ground.

@chtimy I am not sure, cuz I also had the bug without falling. However, maybe if you are very close to the edge this colliding bug happens?

@olddadou , yes you also are in the zone of detection :)

cool puzzle game. Took me a while to understand what to do in the first level :D yes, I don't ready until I am stuck, but that's also a reason many people got stuck at our game.
The little robot guy is really nice and well animated. I also loved the music - have to say the character sounds are a little "scretchy" in constrast to the chill music.
So far I only played 2 levels. But I'll keep it bookmarked to come back later. Right now there are too many games and too little tim ;)

Awesome little puzzle game!
I especially liked the graphics.
My only small criticism is that movement is a tad too slow making it a bit annoying to restart levels.
In any event, good job making this ! :)

this is phenomenal! The most colourful game from the deeper and deeper theme I've played yet.
I love playing with ropes & ladders, it reminds me of world of illusion.

It was impressive the amount of controls that were available in this! Setting and climbing the ropes was especially well done (and animated, to boot!). The sound effects were a bit harsh to my ears, but I'm sensitive to sounds so it may just be me :). Great entry!

@noskro thank you for your feedback. I hope we will push more levels :)
Also, you are right the fact to return once the treasure is taken is not clear. We are thinking about it to improve that. Thank you again.

@gamedev-and-architecture Thank you !! Yes, we increase the speed for some moves for next version.

@stewthepoo Whaou thank you very much for your feedback! it's really cool to read that and motivate us to continue.

@nvrskipgameday Thank you :) Yes we use a lot of time to make the both features. For the sounds of the robot, we gonna decrease the sound level for next version.

That's a really interesting gameplay concept, and I absolutely loved the art, animation, and sound

I love the idea of going back! And the robot is really nice! Maybe you can make a slower progression so the game feels longer and better balanced.

This game is super duper, but good gob it is hard. I've tried the second level 10 times now and can't get it right. Learning skills incrementally over many levels is always nice, instead of being thrown into the deep end.

I think one thing that could be improved is reducing the amount of failure conditions that cause you to have to restart the level. A box on top of another box, a box next to another box, not using a rope when you should have, etc. It would be nice to be able to fix these things rather than restart the level. Being able to pull a box could probably help.

I hope that doesn't sound too negative. Seeing how cool the game was, I got very excited, so it was a big bummer to get so stuck on the second level. Great job though! The level art is super cool, I like the bleeps and bloops, and a lot of love went into animating this little guy!

I like the idea. It's a nice little puzzle platformer. The only thing I don't really like is that you don't know what the level looks like, so you're forced to fail just to learn the whole level. The puzzles were good enough that I feel like you could have let the player scope out the whole level and come up with a plan before they began. I liked the animations and the art and music. Overall, great entry!

@tom-ruxley Thank you for your kind feedback! We are glad that you enjoyed it.

@yetanother Indeed, we are working on a more balanced version of the game. We hope to finish it soon.

@madbarron Your critic is not negative at all. We are aware of the points you raised. Level 2 is difficult. This is my fault because during the process of creating levels I thought that it was too easy... but in fact when you don't have the solution loaded in your brain, it is difficult indeed (I had trouble the next morning to remember the solution haha). I think that your approach to "reduce the number of failing conditions" is great, we will look into that. thank you for the feedback.

@human-writes-code Thank you, the game loop looks a bit like "get stuck and retry". @madbarron also pointed out some ways of improving this point. We also think that we could add something like a probe or be able to look far away with the camera.

Thank you all for your kind and constructive feedback!

Excellent game, the graphics are great and the music very cool, I like the sound effects of the character.
