you can see the progession on the game, really cool, it could be a stand shop to you buy the upgrades too, it could be cheaper because you need to stop there it would be fun

Speed, repair, production.  I couldn't quite figure out what these upgrades do.  Does it upgrade the machinery or the robot?

Overall, fun race-against-the-clock game!

Another note:

One funny peeve that I have in games (this is not a criticism of your game), for example, in an RPG the game graphics show a giant pile of treasure with gold and jewels and swords and armour, but when you click it, you get... 100 gold, only.    So, in your game, when the factory machine breaks down, I can see a box sitting on the conveyor belt.  I want that box!  lol. 

Developer(+1)

Thanks for feedback and your time, the speed is for the robot movement speed, production and repair for machines, they decrease production and repair time.

Sorry that you not able to collect the box on conveyor belt, This box is under production, lol.

The theme is well interpret it this one. I got mission failed on the first level, but I’m not sure why. I repaired both machines.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for your feedback, may be you didn't collect all the boxes produced on the level time.

I love the retro style of this place. It reminds me of the classics. Everything is so well coordinated; it's small but elegant. It has so much potential! I assure you it gets a 5/5 full star rating xD

Developer

Wow, thank you!! , I really appreciate the kind words!, I’m so glad you enjoyed it.

Very enjoyable game - the upgrades are quite simple but I like how each one makes a perceivable difference.

Developer

Glad you liked it! I'm happy the upgrades hit the mark for you. Thanks for the kind words and for checking out the game! ❤️

Hi! I am not sure why "E" does not make the character interact with machines.

Developer

You should stand on the repair area to start interact

The sequence from stage selection to the loading screen was a great reference! (ツ)ノ

Developer

Thanks so much

Completed the game! Was hoping for all 5 levels to have some victory screen :o

I started just to run between two factories and repair them, without touching the third one. This tactic worked on all levels, so my gameplay is not changed by all of these new mechanics, like spikes and oils

But still completed! Was very interested in what new will be next :)

Good job

Developer

Thanks for feedback, I noticed that so in last level you will need to wait for doors between the the adjacent machine, you will still in need to collect the boxes that created by the third machine at game start, and you also correct about victory scene, it would be more engagement.

Pretty fun!  I managed to beat all the levels, only died once on the first level figuring out the mechanics and controls.  I'd have liked a little more feedback (maybe an audio cue) on where to stop to repair, I found myself often walking past it.  It was fun upgrading and finally getting to max upgrades on the final level =).  Sounds and music worked pretty well together with the game.

Developer

Thank you so much, I saw that it was sufficient to change the color of the repair area when standing on it correctly.

Submitted

Neet loop with the upgrades and repairing. I wish there was a bit more audio feedback on things like clicking the buttons. Also, the art wasn't consistent. Congrats on finishing.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for feedback, My artistic sense isn't high.

great work, I would replace the machine if it gets broken too often like that xd

Developer

Thanks you so much, i would do the same thing.

Submitted(+1)

I really enjoyed this, but for some reason the last two levels got ridiculously easy. On all the other levels I made it just in the nick of time, but on the last two I had ten to fifteen seconds left.

Developer

Thanks for your time, this happens when you start them with coins that still with you from previous levels, but i took into consideration the entering without any money.

This is a fun challenging game, great work!

Developer

Thanks you so much

Fun game ! A bit challengine at first to understand what's going on and it would be great to have a visual indication on which machine broke because only having the audio queue can be a bit challenging, but had a great time nonetheless !

Developer

Thank you so much for your feedback, but there is already visual indication on broken machine, when 

machine broke the fix area appears, on interact the indicator appears, on finish fix both the fix area and indicator disaapears and the fix sound play.

Submitted

Yes i was not talking about the broken indication that is good but I meant something to tell you which one broke, because (at least if you are not in fullscreen) you cannot see all of the machines on one screen so you need to remember the position and go check there to know if it broke but i need to manually go look at it, when the gameplay wants me to stay and wait at a machine to grab the cards/boards for the level completion.
