The Robo Squad:Hi, I'm Password from Mini Utopian Games. The Robo Sqauad is a platformer where you can switch between three characters to complete the level. Each character has special abilities; for example, Bolt can create a shield around him, and Xoid can shoot a laser which kills enemies and flips switches. The game is very early in progress, but I hope for it to be enjoyable! This is basically my first attempt at creating a serious game, so please give critique and tips to getting better! You can play the current demo
here.Characters:
BoltBolt is the main defender of the team. his abilities, Block and Shield, both have the ability to protect the player from danger. First off, his
Block ability. Bolt creates a block using metal material which is, basically, just a cube. It has a variety of uses, such as pressing buttons, acting as a shield from projectiles, and jumping on it will allow you to reach higher heights. You can only have one block on the level at a time, though, as creating a block will recycle the old one. His other ability is the
Shield. Bolt uses electric energy to form a bubble around himself, shielding him from any danger. However, it requires to much power, and thus while using it, Bolt cannot move. However, it is still a good ability. It can allow him to cross obstacles the other robos can't cross.
ZoomZoom is fast. His abilities both focus on either vertical of horizontal movement. First ability, the
Dash. By harnessing kinect energy, Zoom rushes forward at ridiculous speeds, which allows him to go over long, horizontal dangers, like a row of spikes. However, it has a short cooldown, so he cannot use it again and again. His second ability, the
Hover, is equally as powerful. Zoom activates the rockets on his boots, which slows his descent. This allows him to traverse vertical obstacles with ease, as his can just float to safety.
XoidXoid is the third member of the squad. He is mainly focused on battle, with both his abilities very useful in combat. However, they also have other uses. The first is
Laser. Xoid creates light energy in his arm cannon, and shoots it out in the form of a beam, which damages enemies. It can also hit faraway buttons and switches that would be otherwise unreachable. His second ability is
Crouch. Simply, he crouches down, making him shorter. This can be used to dodge enemy projectiles and such. Outside of combat, it can be used to go through small holes that others can't go through.
