Reviews for "Robot Wants Fishy"

Hey.

This really isn't anything too new (you jumped the shark with Puppy, personally) and there's a glitch here that mkaes some enemies move really slowly and spin around in place. Fix it soon please, since it can make the game unwinnable in some cases (like my own.)

Hamumu responds:

I have heard somebody else report this problem, and fixed it by rolling Flash back to an earlier version. I had a recent version of Flash and (obviously) didn't encounter the problem, and then I tried updating to the MOST recent version and still didn't have the problem. So either the cause is something else, or it's a very specific version of Flash that causes it, so I recommend you update to the latest version!

Another One?

I feel as though this sequel was plastered up just to have it. The level design is frustrating and the enemies take hits like tanks. The only fun I really had were the boss fights. I don't want to sound mean, but it doesn't really seem like you tried with this one. It's all the same upgrades, enemies, and tasks. Maybe work on a more direct squeal - Robot Wants Kitty 2. The plot could be anything really. The cat get's kidnapped or got hungry and the robot forgot to feed him so he ran away. Meh, but whatever. It's still better than alot of the other garbage out there.

Playtest much? Oh, it's supposed to be like that.

I thoroughly enjoyed your previous two entries in this series. This one, however, has some issues. For starters, the bat boss flew away from me and won't come back down. It seems he got "trapped" on the upper level, although I can't say for sure since I can't get up there to check. As a result, I felt like had to start over. Later on I discovered you aren't supposed to fight him until later, but it sure looked like you were supposed to drop bombs on the little blue gem on his head. It felt like I was supposed to kill that boss at that time, but since he flew away to the upper level and wouldn't come down, I just assumed that the game was bugged. I generally tend to stay away from games with problems like that, but luckily for you I'm a little more lenient considering you are an indie game developer and your previous two entries in this series are good.

Also, later on in the game, some of the moving pillars in the Processing Station got out of sync, which made it impossible to cross them without taking damage. Fortunately, thanks to the bubble, I was still able to make it through there to get another bomb upgrade.

I think the main issue is not being able to advance through places you are able to get to. In Super Metroid, you are able to pass through some places that you aren't "technically" supposed to be as long as you are skilled enough. When I came across the bat boss in your game, it felt like I was supposed to kill him at that time, but it took a short while to figure out otherwise. If the boss is out and about, one can only assume that you're supposed to fight him. Perhaps it's just level design, but I think you can do a better job of clarifying where the player should investigate next. I do prefer the non-linear approach, but it should be clear to the player which places are open.

The game mechanics, frame rate, and graphics are all great. Just work on the things I mentioned and the game will be a lot better.

Poor

This game is too difficult and non-intuitive. I think I'm missing some key ability because every chamber I try to teleport to, there's something just impossible, like a wall to blast through when I can't seem to blast through walls, or no way to damage the boss at all. And the zones are out of order because I got a double jump ability in the last zone when I can't do anything in several other zones. If the zones have to be played in a certain linear order, you should PUT THEM IN THAT ORDER.

I'm not going to watch a stupid video walkthrough, that is an annoying waste of time, couldn't you have taken the 20 minutes to write up a text walkthrough so you can just skim it and find what you need?

where was kitty?

it was sorta lame cus in the last one you had kitty so i asumed you'd have kitty and doggy and new powerups and what not 0_o it would have been cool.
