Yes - I'm new to game jams!
How does your game fit the theme?
The game is themed around "starting up" your own company- you even get to start up robots along the way to get there!

This is a lovely puzzle game! The controls feel great, the visuals are clean and cute (even if a bit small), and the level design is really smart. I like how you have to try some levels at least twice to see what will happen. The office-style background sounds gave me a bit of anxiety, but honestly, they fit the vibe really well. Great job!
Thank you for the kind feedback! I found your message in the discord and I appreciate that you and some other chatters took the time to play!
This is a great game concept! The art style is great and there's so many puzzles you can make!
I really like the style of the game, the little robots wake up animation is great! I had some issues waking up my friends sometimes though, even when standing right next to them or on top of them? Eventually it would work though and I was able to get through the levels. It's a really cool idea and a great puzzler for sure! I did miss my jumps a little too often though, but that's just cause I'm bad haha! Really great game and amazing idea for y'alls first game jam game!
Polished presentation, sound and a good design idea. Only real gripe is the viewport size made me miss the first robo body change that would give me 2 robots, so I thought I was soft locked. User error for sure, I just missed the lil cube body.
Wonderful! Great graphics and sound (my favourite was the little whirring noises when a new robot is activated). Well designed puzzles and levels. A great effort!
Very cute game. The platforming feels very smooth, controls are easy to get and the whole level design is great and I loved the attention to detail such as the shadow below to know where you are going to land, only that it was a bit notorious when you jump and it teleports in between the floor and the platform you are standing on. Great job overall!
nice 1st game. The puzzles are solid, the mechanic is interesting.
Crazy fun! Would love to see even more kinds of puzzles come from this game!
Fun concept! Really cool first game jam submission! Love the theme!
I was not able to climb the first ladder after the intro. Art was great althouth a bit small.
The ladder itself wasn't working when you walked into it, or you struggled with the puzzle?
ok, I found the issue. It looks Opera was not showing the whole screen, so I couldn't see the platform to jump in. Once I tried on another browser I could go for the next level.
Good to hear!
Wow, this is an insane first game jam entry! So much content!
