This is a pretty enjoyable game. I like the central mechanic of it, with the activating robots. The soundtrack is pretty good too. It could have used a few more levels, but I understand that's sometimes hard with the time limit.
Nice concept and graphics. I only wish the camera centered on the newest robot that you picked up instead of the oldest alive robot, plus it was a tiny bit difficult, but fun nonetheless.
Wow, that was good.
Idea was really fantastic, and I liked the animations a lot, rather funny.
Well done, thi sis a rather interesting take on the timelimit - just run out, you got spares. Sometimes the platform detection is a bit wonkey though.
Love the interpretation of the theme. I found the best strategy was simply to focus on the robot with the highest number above their head. Were there any cases where you would have to sacrifice one robot to get another? If not, that might be a cool addition.. :)
Great game. A little tricky but the balance felt just about right for me. The mechanic works well and it's capped off with some nice fluid animation on the 'bots.
Superb. Cool concept and nice execution. Cool post effect too!
Completed it! The idea fits theme very well, I totally liked it! :)
The plataform mixed with selfdestruct robots like checkpoints is a awesome combination!! The psicodelic music and the psicodelic scenario hynotize me :|
The music was a nice touch, so it was quite short making the looping a little...much. But overall the game was a pretty awesome concept and it played really well too. Awesome job on the graphics and gameplay!
Very nice concept! The game is very fun and has a great idea to it, robots that explode after 10 seconds is awesome, just the idea gives this game a very nice feel imo, the robots control well and very responsive. The game is very fun in it self, the graphics fit this and go really good. the audio was great. The game is kinda humorous, and the mood is very well done. Overall very fun and well executed game!
The little robot guy is well done and I like the game mechanic. I especially like the name of the game - one letter short from the name I chose :)
Instant smile when playing this :) great music and graphics too, well done :)
Clever usage of the theme! Nice work! The jumping was bit odd, but otherwise I didn't think it was too hard.
Very cool idea ! Easy to pick up and clever. Fun graphics and music.
This is definitely one of the most complete end to end games and the theme is well represented. The fact that your ten seconds resets with each robot and you are simultaneously controlling all of the robots at all times is pretty awesome.
Good controls, good graphics, good music, great theme - I liked everything about this game except how I kept dying :)
The web please doesn't work on linux, please release a linux binary!
This is great! love the music and gameplay. The idea of extending your life is pretty neat too. The effects cool too :)
It did get really difficult though after some time.
I like the theme interpretation and the robot animations are really cool! Levels are challenging in the right way. :)
Cool use of the theme, the multi-character controls really open up a lot of possibilities. Great visual effects as well.
Nice job, works well. The multi-character control didn't have much effect on the gameplay, though (maybe it does in later levels, though). I always ignored all robots I was controlling except the most recently activated one.
fantastic! the concept was great. the background and visual effects made me feel like I was in an 80's music video... which was pretty amazing
Nice game mechanic. Loved the shaders here and the music added a nice Heavy Metal mood to it. Solid entry :)
Smart concept. Nice graphics!
I think the robots should not collide with each other. Sometime they create unnecessary blockage and the time runs out.
Love the music! gets somewhat tricky later, but its awesome
Good interpretation of the theme. It was original and fun. The robots look cute the levels are bit too blocky. Excellent music for a compo game.
That game was cooperative and amazing :D ... Loved the graphics and effects. Great job on this.

PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
Wow, this game is neat. I adore the idea. My only issue with it is that it's so difficult. I always die right before I hit what I assume is the end of the level!
