Even though the factory has been out of service for years - if not decades - a small robot is still doing his job maintaining the machines.

The dungeoun is regenerated each time. If you like the principle of the game, it might be worth playing through it more than once.

This is our contribution to Godot WIld Jam # 35 (Lost Tech). Good luck, have fun!

We appreciate any kind of criticism, good or bad.


CONTROLS:

  • Move with the arrow keys or WASD.
  • Press the space bar or just click to shoot. You shoot in the direction where the cursor is pointing.
  • Press E to pick up a gear when you are nearby, and E again to throw it when it gets too annoying.
  • Press X to self-destruct - if it's charged (don't worry, it's not really a self-destruction).
  • Press CTRL if you want to take another look at the items you have collected.
  • ESC to pause and unpause.
  • If you are playing the game in the browser, it may not be a good idea to press CTRL and W at the same time, because in most browsers that is the shortcut to close the current tab.


ATTENTION!!!

The HTML5 version of the game may be a bit jittery in the browser. If so, please consider downloading the file. The zip file of the Windows-Version below comes with an .exe and a .pck file. Please make sure both files are in the same directory when you run the .exe to play the game.

With that said, of course, have fun! ;)


SPECIAL THANKS:


SOURCE CODE:

I plan to release the source code as soon as possible. I just need to add a few more comments to make the spaghetti code easier to understand.
