I loved the whole 80s vibe it had going on and the game was actual really fun. I know it says 5 but in my book you guys get 6 stars ### 5/5 — Fantastic retro game *2018-12-18* I’m really enjoying this game. The music has to be the best part of all! Some of the levels are tough to solve at first but then there is a pretty clear path. The cute scenes are funny if not a bit cheesy. I recommend it if you love the 80s and classic games! Edit: I just beat this game and I love the story! I’d love to see more levels added soon. New music would be really cool too. Great game, I highly recommend it! ### 5/5 — Totally Awesome ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ *2018-12-18* This game is simply amazing! The gameplay combines platforming of old school games and the character swapping puzzle solving of The Lost Vikings. It does a great job of blending the Synthwave look and sound. It doesn’t feel like a typical rhythm game but you can tell everything is moving to the beat. And you are going to hear it a lot because some of the levels are brutal, haha. My favorite track is the the Red robot’s theme. I beat the first batch of levels, and I would love to see some more! One of the best things about this game is the art! The chunky robots are a throw back to the kinds of games I grew up with and still enjoy. The levels are full of purples and flashes that fit the Synthwave look perfectly. The cutscenes are where things really shine, although it could have used more of them. I really enjoyed the story too! Great game and I’d love to see more from it in the future! ### 5/5 — Impressive *2018-12-15, version 19.85* This little indie game is very cute and very nice it surely made a smile on my face I wold get man when I die and that's why it's very good it's challenging but not impossible that's why I would give this game a 10/10 because it is very good keep it up -Godnub ### 5/5 — Appiology *2018-12-15* GREAT GAME!!! Couldn't stop playing- the music was very upbeat - game length perfect for maintaining my interest! Another winner game winner from Moby Pixel! ### 5/5 — Needs a sequel *2018-12-14* This is what a fun game supposed to be. Challenging, great music and has great comedy. I hope this game comes out for pc. Make more games like this! ### 5/5 — Get this game *2018-12-14* I love this game and can’t wait for more levels 😋😋👍👍 ### 5/5 — Good Game but short *2018-12-11* You guys should more levels ### 5/5 — Love it! *2018-12-09* Great graphics and great music! Fun puzzle platformer!!! ### 5/5 — Норм. *2018-12-06* Приятная графика. Старая, но со вкусом, так сказать. Хорошая игра чтобы скоротать время. ### 5/5 — I really dig this game *2018-12-05* When you’re not bobbing your head to the beat, you’ll be scratching your head to solve the puzzles! The character swap mechanic coupled with the race for time makes for some really intense moments. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ok *2018-12-14* Game is really fun but the gears touch you once and you just die, also I need more than 5 coins ### 1/5 — Can’t turn off sound *2018-12-12* Would have been a fun game but not being able to mute the sound either in game or with the switch on the phone is a deal breaker. **Developer response:** Hey Splash1973! The latest version added a mute toggle in the app settings that allows the device mute switch to mute the game audio. Thanks! ### 1/5 — The game won’t download *2018-12-09* It says I’ve already purchased this game with no additional charge and won’t download, I have already tried deleting it with its downloading animation going on while it never downloads and now it’s not even doing that. ### 2/5 — Fun but has many flaws *2018-12-23* It is a super fun game but there are 2 main bad things about it. 1) if you fall is spikes or anything else if you get hit, and don’t move fast enough you can take two or three hits because there is no invincibility stage 2) there is a timer that rushes you and makes you stressed then you die because of the no invincibility stage you die go back and then have to rush and you die again and after two deaths you have to exit and retry and then you run out of retries and have to wait to play again **Developer response:** Hey Carrott291! The latest version increased the invincibility frames after a hit from .5 sec to 1 sec. Thanks! ### 3/5 — Level 18 *2022-02-18* Level 18 is way to hard I mean it is a good game but LEVEL 18 IS WAY TO HARD!!!! ### 4/5 — Volume option *2020-01-10* Really love this!! The jokes and funny and I love how it's straight forward and challenging!! But I listen to music often and would enjoy playing the game while listening to music but the audio option doesn't actually work and that's a bit disappointing so please look into fixing that bug!! :) ### 4/5 — Cooooooooooool👾 *2018-12-09* I love this game and it makes me think about how to use the music but I don’t know what is the music for.so i love this game. ### 5/5 — Impressive novelty *2024-03-10* This is the game I never knew I needed, until now!
