      @@HarryDKH It’s 😣 if you’re on a phone/computer that shows emojis, it’s an emoticon to express discontentment/cringe/low sadness.
      Basically it’s the two symbol equivalent (in that context) of « I feel bad-ish and regretful about the thing I mentioned ».
      What it technically represents is someone frowning his closed eyes, or closing his eyes really hard

    Just found this Devlog series today, and I'm loving the look of the game so far! As an aspiring game dev learning to code right now, stuff like this always helps, seeing other peoples creative processes and ideas come to fruition, and learning from them myself. Keep up the good work, and I look forward to seeing our little "Null" robot jumping and rolling around the finished game at the very end of the process!

    Your attention to detail (not just in animation) is really really excellent. The little changes like "Oh the leg pieces weigh less than the body so when the enemy explodes the leg pieces should fly farther away than the main body piece" was a great added detail

    You've probably got some of the best devlogs I've seen. You don't shy away from showing some of the internal work you've been doing but you always manage to make it accessible and nice to look at. Not to mention how lovely this game looks - - I'm not gonna lie, you definitely made a choice I wouldn't have (depth-first development, working on polishing first and more features second) but it really does seem to be working for you and I'm glad to see it.
    Can't wait to play this in a couple years!

    Here are some of my ideas that I came up with. You could destroy enemies for different parts that can be made into player upgrades. Like a flame upgrade to your slam that sets any nearby enemies on fire when in range of the slam, another idea to add onto that is if you set an enemy on fire and they happen to burn, the player could earn new parts that could unlock new possibilities like an electro trail for when you roll, and enemies could be stunned if in the way.

    You could give him a robot dog companion like Rush from Megaman, and he would follow you around, wagging his tail like that.. and you could even ride on his back to solve some puzzles. That would be cool. You already have the base parts in place for it.
