Not bad. I don't know why you named it that. (not Chinese).
ReplyDeleteTake it up with the actual developer, pal. Don't complain to Bart about what he personally isn't responsible for. My theory is that it's short for "machines".
DeleteEnjoyed all three quick jam games. A total surplus count would be cool, see how much leftover money you saved in each level.
ReplyDeleteThat was pretty bad. Having to constantly switch between mouse and kb is no fun; the controls were terrible, and somehow a little dinky pixel 2d game runs at like 10 fps, making the already rough physics feel even worse trying to fight through the stutter.
ReplyDeleteThis is genius!
ReplyDeleteStuck on level 7.
ReplyDeleteMy solution for level seven is fast-twitch, maybe that's enough of a clue. More clues, rot13: Fubbg gur hccre ohggba sebz gur hccre cyngsbez, naq whzc vagb gur arjyl-bcra xrl nypbir jura gur oybpxf nyy qvfnccrne.
DeleteFast-twitch?
DeleteThis was cute. I enjoyed it. :)
ReplyDeleteI'll stick with games that actually LOAD when I click the link. Thanks, anyway.
ReplyDeletethe game opens in a new window, maybe your browser is blocking the pop-up?
DeleteFinished it. It's nice, but I personally found the need to move between mouse and keyboard kind of inconvenient, but I can see how the mechanic kind of demands it. I am not good at fast-twitch stuff, and there were a couple of those, but not so many as to make the game impossible.
ReplyDeleteDeveloper here! Just released a small QoL update that reorders the levels so they make a bit more sense, and adds new key mappings so the controls feel more natural. Thank you guys for playing my game!!
ReplyDeleteNeeds a mute button
ReplyDeleteThese comments are a little harsh! Cute, and fun. I do agree it's mildly annoying when you have to switch back from keyboard and mouse, but many games have that issue.
ReplyDeleteNot sure what I'm missing, I am already stuck at level 3.
ReplyDeleteThere is no way to go back to the exit after collecting the key. :/

That was interesting and fun. Got through to the end, but as others have said, switching between keyboard and mouse is cumbersome. I'm not quite sure how you could achieve the same mechanics with only keys. For the "inputs" you can use a modifier key first, for instance, "c" first and then "up arrow" buys/sells that key. But there certainly is no way to achieve the same for platform objects. All in all, I still enjoyed it so good job dev.
