Nice bejeweled-like. Interesting super moves

Developer

Thanks!

Could tell the effort put in in trying to make the match-3 satisfying, and that part I think this did a pretty great job. My main feedback is the game seems to present you with a wall of text that doesn't actually seem to be necessary at all to play or understand the game.

Developer

where?

Submitted

The first place is the screen that shows all the multipliers

Submitted

Interesting match 3 game. I like de skills of the different characters. Maybe you could add more backstory to each character.

Good job!

Submitted

A Match 3 with different characters and skills is something that never crossed my mind, but it ended up being quite a cool combination. I specially enjoyed how each power charged by matching a different piece. Awesome work.

Submitted

A good ol' satisfying Mech Candy Crush. Sick music, vibey concepts of the mechs 

Developer

yep you get it! tho the mech upgrade and purchasing mechanic is a bit different from traditional candy crush.

Submitted

Fun game and cool music!

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

It's a good game and can be use for education.

Submitted

A simple and fun match-3 game that fits the jam theme perfectly. I really love that this can be played on mobile! Great job on that.

Developer

Thanks!

Love the character design in this one, loved the vibe of this game, great submission, great sound design, the effects are very satisfying, I definitely give it a 5/5 star rating.

Developer

Thank you so much! I've always wanted to make my own match- game.

Submitted

I really like the sound effects, I like that there are several levels; it adds a lot of playtime. The only thing that I don't like it is the IA ilustrations, but the rest is quite entertaining

Developer

I'm always happy to collab with somebody who wants to do the art. I'm a programmer not an illustrator.  Without AI images this project could never have happened.

Submitted

very satisfying to play, I want to test this on mobile later. The animations and feedback feel very polished. kinda robotic candy crush

Developer

It's touch compatible but IDK how well it fits on a smaller screen? That's a goal for sure tho.

Submitted

Fun satisfying puzzle game, really enjoyed playing it. Great support for mobile too. I didn't really get the difference between the robots though.

Developer

I am guessing that you didn't notice each one had a power that could be activated. That performs a special move, like deleting a piece, swapping a column, etcetera. If so, I need to make that much clearer! 

Submitted

Niiice! The music is adorable! Nice and polished game! I enjoyed the idea that every robot has its own unique abilities! Would be cool to have the next level start automatically, like in candy crash ;] But even without it I think the game is awesome!

Developer

good point! or at least make it trivial to move on.

Submitted

I really liked the Smash sound, you should put it in all combinations haha. I thought it was really nice, I even reached phase 6 with only the 2 Robot.

I didn’t quite understand it, because it suddenly showed that the mission failed. Is it due to time or a maximum number of combinations?

Developer(+1)

There's a 20 move limit. The header should get more agro as you get closer to that, I think. Thanks for raising the issue!

Submitted

Wow crazy FX very satisfying when you chain combos. Id love to trouble you in the future for a mobile apk file. I do long bus rides at times and having a game like this would be awesome!

Submitted

Wow that's a surprisingly complete game. I like the gfx and music. I am a sucker for match 3 but, it has been done to death... I see some fresh ideas here but I'd like a more complex upgrade tree personally.

Developer

Thanks! I wanted to keep it accessible. More upgrade types are appealing, but the real choice / tree comes from choosing the type of bot to use.

Submitted

1 star for ai art :(

Developer

And yet, the jam is sponsored by multiple companies that offer that as part of their portfolio.
