This was awesome. Well done. I just had to get to the end and I'm glad I did.

Developer

I'm happy you enjoyed it, thanks for playing to the end!

Great project...I really liked the last level solution.

Developer(+1)

Thanks so much! That is probably my favorite as well.

Getting cables to behave is a challenge. Well done on a nice game. Congrats. I struggled a bit in level 3, but that's pobably just me.

Developer

Thanks! the cables took several days on their own just to be usable lol. Level 3 is probable the one I'm least satisfied with, but I'm glad you enjoyed the game overall.

Very fun puzzle game, and great usage of the theme! I encountered a few bugs, but I won't hold that against the game. It's genuinely a great, fun experience. Good job!... this rover/bot is just awesome xD

A quick note on the levels:

  • Level 2: Like veryseriosSALMON mentioned, I was completely stuck at first until I realized I could basically connect it through the wall.
  • Level 3: If you connect the top part first, it gets pretty hard to get back down because that gravity thing keeps flinging you upwards.
  • Level 4: I managed to get myself completely stuck here, and it seems impossible to get out :) (see screenshot - unhappy rover/bot :(( ). Maybe I deserved it, though! :D
Developer

Thanks for the feedback! having gone back to check, I see what you mean with level 2, not sure how I missed that lol.

Level 3 definitely could use some more polish.

You shouldn't be stuck in that screenshot, if you disconnect the right plug and then connect the left plug into the right outlet, the door should open, unless it's bugged.

Thanks again, I'm hoping to make a full game out of this eventually, so the feedback is extremely helpful!

yes my bad, meybe Ive had to spent few more seconds thinking :D

Submitted(+1)

this was so cool i loved it and were you supposed to complete level 2 by connecting it through a wall

Developer

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

That's definitely a bug lol, getting those cables to play nice was more of a challenge than I thought they would be.

Great job on this, puzzles increased in difficulty perfectly, never overly difficult. The robot plugging in these giant sockets really worked, the art goes really well with your concept. Would definitely play more of this if you developed more levels, great job.

Developer

Thanks so much! this was my first time making the art assets myself, so I'm glad it turned out well.

I'm definitely hoping to remake this into a full game at some point.

I liked it, and it reminds me of the incredible machine games. I could see having the vents blow side ways or platforms that move, etc. as additional obstacles to control.

Developer(+1)

Thanks! those are great ideas for puzzle elements.

Submitted(+1)

Good game here is some feedback :

-the cable is very bouncy and often jitters in a weird visual bugs

-you should propably use colours or other means to communicate which socket activates what

-currently you can get stuck in preety much every level and softlock yourself(sometimes its plugging in the wrong socket , sometimes its the physics with the cable or reduced jump height)

overall it's still a very fun experience and the puzzles are well-made GGs :3

Developer(+1)

I really appreciate the feedback! That cable gave me a heck of a time to get to be even slightly stable lol. 

And good to know about the softlocks I did my best to make sure there wasn't any, but I guess I missed a few.

Wow, I love this game! Very fun and engaging =)

Keep adding levels!

Developer

Thanks! I'm hoping I can expand on it sometime after the jam.

Submitted(+2)

This was a fun puzzle game that left me wanting more.  Hope you continue working on this and extend it!

Developer

Thanks so much! I'm definitely hoping to work on it more, just a matter of finding the time lol.

This game is right up my alley! Reminds me of a game I played last year called Mind Over Magnet. The connecting mechanic is very fun and you introduce new mechanics like gravity very natrually. Nice job!

Developer(+1)

Thanks! Mind over Magnet was definitely an inspiration.

Wohoo little guy. I liked, that I had to think to solve the levels, not "just" connect the wires.

Developer

I'm really glad to hear that! Puzzles are super hard to judge while creating them , so I'm happy they made you think a bit.

Fun enjoyed it! I suggest you telegraph what will be powered when a socket is connected to make it less confusing

Developer(+1)

Absolutely agree, I'm hoping to work on this more at some point, and that will definitely be a priority.

A Very funny little game.

Developer

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
