Unfortunately I couldn't leave a complete review because I wasn't able to get the second to work. I tried using a controller too, but that also only controlled the red ship. So maybe this is for 2 controller set-up? It seemed pretty solid. There's a boost jump feature and a "hover"/Slow-decent mode, so there are fleshed-out mechanics there. And I'm certain I need the blue ship to help get to the end, so design on the first level is solid, but wasn't able too continue.
I wasn't able to start the game in Linux with proton-hotfix or proton-experimental, but it worked fine with proton-9.0-4. Whoop! I didn't have a second player, so I could not make it off level 1. Still, love the space ships, the music, and SFX. This would make a fun puzzler/platformer. Nicely done!
Good to know someone got it on Linux. I don't have the time to tinker with it right now. Serves me right for procrastinating all week to check out the other entries.
I really liked the overall idea of the game, and I thought the movement was well done. The main issue I ran into was not being able to control the second ship, there didn't seem to be any way to switch characters so I wasn't able to make it past the first level. I think the idea has a lot of potential especially if there's a way to switch.
Not sure if this game has an ending. I got to a level where the red robot immediately falls if you don't hold the thruster and right, then I had to jump off a buddy onto a higher ledge with a lever on the top right. Whenever I touched the bottom-right corner, the level simply reset. I tried a bunch more times, but it always just reset. Simple yet fun concept, though!
Hey Thank you for your rewiew.Yes there was supposed to be one more level but I messed up and put the same level.Sorry About that.
Edit:Fixed it
