Promising and fun gameplay. It took me a while to figure out how to switch weapons. Killing Avery and SquareAnon was fun lol. I expected grenades and explosive barrels to deal damage too, but they only jammed the enemies. I also expected to be able to control all my units in a single turn, just like the enemy does, but couldn't manage to do that (by design?). The spread mechanic annoyed me at first, but I adapted by closing in on enemies like a cold-blooded assassin. It felt good to execute them at point-blank range. Still I couldn't progress beyond 3–5 levels, skill issue probably.

Died on the first level.
BUT! I love Valkyrie Chronicles! And with them botching III (and IV), the world needs more games like this. I would recommend adding in story/narrative elements next, something to get the player to want to retry if they die at the first stage like I did. You have sexy robots, give them some personality, make me want to see them succeed/win. 
- really cool transition from 2d to 3d
- i had a hard time understanding what to do, i understand its a prototype and no tutorial
- unclear what determines amount of shots hit? feels very random by just moving a few pixels it goes up and down, i would do a bit more less granular
- kind of wish i could move a bit after shooting, so i could shoot and then take cover, or something similar
- i dont understand why i sometimes shoot back when attacked and sometimes dont
- cool spider drone movement
- not clear that i got loot, would highlight that somehow
- why can i crouch sometimes and sometimes dont?
Good job! Keep working on it theres something nice with the free movement and tactical shootin.

Velocity Noodle 3(d)I was having a good time until the game froze followed by a graphics card crash. Other than that, seems solid.

Project SugarplumI'm a big fan of turn based tactics/strategy games and mechanics-wise this is cool stuff. Camera, moving, and shooting all felt pretty good. Keep up the good work
