How does your game fit the theme?
The perspective switches between a small robot and large robot. The large robot is also built to scale (climb) a mineshaft. Haha, clever.

Challenging game with a fun concept. I think the climbing robot visuals was my favorite part.

Really solid concept with a neat execution.

Just out of curiosity, how did you find this game? I was intrigued since it didn't show you as having submitted anything to this jam. When I checked your account, you haven't replied to any other games since a year ago, and didn't reply to anyone else in this jam.

Great game , especially for a jam ! This type of game are generally in coop so it was a much challenging experience. 

Its oddly satisfying to make the bot climb !

And as others wrote, it was difficult to understand at first what to do and how to find the machines, but after a couple of try it's become clear. (Classic Jam problem haha)

Honestly a really fun experience. Good balance of pressure and stress. Obviously needs a bit more polish, but there is so much more that this could grow into. Great ideas!

Very cool and fun concept!

Wish it was a little more transparent what you were supposed to do initially, but once you get into it, it becomes a pretty fun little game.

Thank you for playing and the feedback! There was supposed to be a mini intro tutorial where the player would walk through each activity before starting the main game, but we ran out of time. We intended to put that in after the game jam concludes!

Wow, it is such a great game ! I love the idea and it fit the theme on many aspects. It was challenging but not frustrating. I had a feeling of pressure all along and a lot of fun 😊 The art style is very cool too !

Congratulations for your submission ^^

gah! so fun but challenging! love the concept, i will admit it took me a couple of tries to figure out what the heck i was doing and why i was dying! some of the signs are a bit confusing, color matching the signs to the top right would help! also the "up/down" for the shield was not obvious to me at all, i kept trying to jump and interact and nothing was working- that could just be my stupidity tho lol... i did get it eventually, after all! I think dying frequently was part of the fun tho :) poor lil robot! i will help u escape one day!

I know the signs to the rooms were not very apparent - I meant to have them redone but ran out of time, so that's an apology on my part :). Making things more apparent is definitely going one of the tasks after the jam (including introductory tutorials). Thanks for playing and glad you had fun with it!

Frantic and engaging!

The constant managing idea is great, but, not gonna lie, it's very stressful. I also got a bit confused with the signs at first. Overall a fun game!

Developer(+1)

Ran out of time to re-do the signs. They're definitely something going to be redone in the near future. Thanks for playing :)

Interesting idea with active management and a nice visual style
