Beautiful game I must say! The wall jumping is a bit bulky and quite frustrating though.
Reviews for "Robot Phone Home"
for someone who has no love for platform games, well done! the things i like most are, the monochromatic palette, the simplicity of the graphics (even though they are nice), and the soundscape. well done!
I love the atmosphere it's great easy but clear! Although the wall jumping is kinda annoying because you slide off very fast.. thats the only thing
I really love these exploration/platformer games. This one was pretty good, though it felt a bit...shallow. Not many upgrades to find, no secrets (unless I missed them), and it felt like you could've done a lot more with the storyline to really complement the sense of loneliness and desolation the graphics (and lack of other characters/enemies) convey. I was sort of expecting some big revelation, or a sad ending, or something to trigger some emotion. There was also no reason given for why our little robot couldn't do all these things from the beginning, which is kind of needed in games like this.
The jetpack was more painful than it should have been. There's no indication given of how long you can use it, or what refills it. The vertical spaces in some of the spike areas seemed to suggest that you could rest on the wall to refill it, but that didn't seem to be the case. A gauge on the side of the screen would help immensely. The controls also seemed a little wonky; I'd go from not being able to stop my fall, to rocketing back up into ceiling spikes before I could stop it.
Overall, though, good game. Other than the jetpack, the controls seemed to be spot-on (I'll assume the times I attempted to jump and just fell into a spike pit were player error, not the game itself), and while I wish it were longer, it was still a nice time-waster. Kudos.
great gameplay, great graphics and sounds, good dinamic lighting this is a very enjoyable game i have a "forum" and i will post this in it, i dont know how to do one part but is fine ( i think i need the jetpack but i dont know eher is it)
