This is a good game! I like the style you started with using doodles to tell the story. The gameplay is also fun, as I have to constantly shoot the robots while finding the best position to hit the electricity. The level design is also great, starting with robots that can't kill you to learn mechanics, then slowly build up to deadly robots.
Clipping robots over stacked office chairs with electric cords, felt me feel so empowered. Slowly walking to the corner office, knowing its days are numbered.
First game? Amazing! The mechanic was so slick, and great level design! Loved the intro sequence! Can I ask on how you made it possible?
Loved the opening sequence, and the cinematic robot dying was fun to watch and really cool, although it did sometimes interrupt the normal game (I would suggest having it only trigger the robot set was like 4 or higher or something that way it doesn't happen so often and feels more epic when it does).
Thank you. I agree with the feedback here to. I had bigger plans but time was short. I learned a lot about scaling my expectations and time management, to say the least .:)
I initially wanted to make the cords constrain enemy movement too and make that important to the game. Then they would be RigidBody2Ds and would wrap around walls. I sunk a good deal of time into that but it turned out to be beyond my level of understanding. My failed experiments are still in the source code, embarassingly.
The little cutscene for killing robots, although it can feel pretty good when you shoot a lot of robots at once, it can also be a little offputting, since it interrupts gameplay constantly.
Last room was intense! Found it to be pretty fun. Liked the story told through drawings. Graphics could be improved. Good job!

Can't wait to see this polished and expanded!

Overall though pretty nice game, good job:).

Interesting mechanic, It was weird that lines can pass through walls. I really liked your intro style!
Thank you. Totally agree with the cords clipping.
