Robots Don't Get Scared

I played the game throughly, it was nice game. Also I always appreciate when someone tries other than pixel art, so thumbs up for that :) Theme wasn't that much present in this game, story does start by robot falling apart, but after it you are reconstructing yourself. So maybe you could have implemented theme more in someway other. About gameplay, maybe speed upgrade shouldn't have been passibe ability but ability to run whenever player wanted, as initially it made overall platforming bit harder, as you easily went too far. Though you get used to it. Also jumping on ceilings had bit weird collisions. But your game was nice entry :) I liked the jumpscares and their dull faces when robot didn't give any reaction ^^

Awesome game, solid metroidvania with funny enemies

I thought the jumpscares was hillarious. They weren't neccecary, but they gave a unique personality to the enviroment and the protagonist without breaking the flow like NPC:s with textboxes would have done. In general, I like the idea of the game being a parody of haunted houses. I think it would have been even cooler if the scenery looked more like a stereotypical haunted house.

I like that the look and animation of the character changes when you collect upgrades. That is a common overlook even in large scale games. The rolling animation looks espacially cool.

I played this two times and didn't notice the non solid blocks singleshot mentioned and other people didn't seem to do so either. What I'm trying to say is that it's no big deal. I once submitted a game where you could get an infinite score by doing absolutley nothing. Nobody even noticed.

One of the main things that can ruin a metroidvania is too much backtracking but here I think you've solved the problem: You make it so the upgrades make the backtracking easier. Difficult jumps are then upgraded to be jumped with ease, longer sections can be backtracked twice as fast with extra speed. Genius! Definitely something I'll keep in mind if I ever make one!

I think others hit well on any criticism I would have with it (jump precision, some graphical stuff, etc) but I thought it was great overall! And I'm afraid to admit how many times I got jumpscared and rolled my eyes at how pathetic I am. Thanks for that hahaha

A very fun silly little game!

I like the look of the robot and monsters but everything else kinda looked bland and samey. Having tile design variations for the level would have gone a long way. Even just having a top layer for tiles you walk on vs wall tiles would have helped.

Some of the jumps were a bit too precise, and once you go the speed up, one tile platform became super annoying, I found myself slipping off after barely walking on it. Also the target gates and some of the cracked walls didn’t have collision? I got the gun arm first, and broke though cracked blocks before I got the power up that told me I can now break them?

But that's about where my complaints end, the concept was nice, the story was humorous, and all the spooks were drawn appealing. Really well done for 14 hours of work.

Hey Ethan. Cool game.

I liked the art and sfx. I liked how the other characters look at you. I think the game suits the theme really well.

The one thing I should mention was the jumps were precision perfect. It wasn't too frustrating though because it wasnt like we was diying so was quite happy about that.

there was one point where I was like: "Yes, Yes! YEAH!!!"

Good job.

I had a really fun time with this, maybe Im a little bit biased because I love metroidvania games! The powerups were fun, the story and art were charming & I instinctively knew where to go throughout the game, very well put together!

Kevin the 🤖 is adorable - good work on this! My biggest frustration was that the jumping mechanics were a bit... slippery? Like I just always felt that I was falling down holes after sliding off of a collision, but I still had tons of fun and enjoyed your whole game :)

Played through the whole game and it was kinda fun. It was confusing though to were you are supposed to go.

Fantastic! Loved the art and theme. You have a talent for cinematics!

This was very entertaining. The cutscenes and humour were great. The gameplay was fun too. To put this together in such a short time is impressive.
