When I was reading the description, I was thinking "this is the stupidest, most contrived idea ever to have been conceived."
Then I watched the trailer, oh lord, the trailer. I laughed my rear end off. Seriously, I laughed it off so hard that I can't even find it anymore, it's probably in my neighbours' garden or something.
Now I wish I had time to download and play it, but I don't, but I will sometime in the near future, at which time I will, and then I'll come back and inform you on how awesome it surely is!
Edit: I couldn't resist. "Hooey" I said to my exams in the morning, and so I did download and play your game. First of all, I love the stereotypical Japanese guy... "OCTODAAAADDDD!!!!"
At first, control was terrible, but after a short while I managed to sort it out, and soon after I was wiggling around like a regular old octopus. One thing I might suggest is improving the camera control. As it is, it's a bit slow, I think. Also, when you have your arm stuck out, I think it would be better if you could get a more global view.
I also think I found one little glitch. When I entered the rooms, I always looked at my todo list, and I saw that I had to bring a robot to the boy "within a certain amount of time." So first thing I did was grab the robot and shuffled on down to where the boy was. I dropped it, and after scoring a goal, it said to stand beside him to start the challenge. I didn't, Instead I went and smashed down the tower of blocks, and then I went to start the challenge, so I picked up the robot and since I was already beside the boy, I completed the challenge. I assumed that there would be a time limit, so if that is the case, then I suggest that upon starting the challenge the robot be replaced to it's starting position, or something like that!
Anyways, I found it very fun and I hope there is more to come!
did you use shader?
