Reac'this by DevUndead
You are an employee who has to monitor the fusionreactor. It is in an experimental state and runs for the first time a week to prove that the idea is working.
It is day 3/7 on the experiment. Meanwhile it is 01:30 AM and nothing strange is happening. You fell asleep. But then, the alarm goes off. Oh no! And the connection to the outer world is also gone. When you look over to the control window, you see that there is a strange behavior on the reactor, as it is glowing strangely.
In this puzzle game, try to stop the problem, before there is a need for a meat wagon! But your manager was not making it easy for you.
About
This is a low-poly puzzle game.
The theme of this jam was "Unstable". So I decided to make a game, where the reactor gets unstable, and you as the employee have to stop this!

Thank you all for playing my game and the feedback!
The music is cool
Don't ask me how i found that bug but if you go in a locker and spam the interact button you will pass the rest of your life in there
But I liked the music and environment :)
One thing I noticed however, sometimes, at least on the web version, while turning with the mouse, sometimes the view snaps 90° in some direction. Also, when unfocusing the game, I couldn't get it to trap the cursor again.
Those minor things aside, it was really a nice time to play through, great job!
Other than that, cool game, was fun
Also, godot gang
Thank's for sharing this game. I've played it, the idea is nice! I was confused what exactly to do and it was try and error :sweat_smile: So a little more guidance is appreciated. As you've written it's one of your first projects made by Godot, this was a very good starting point to grow on!
The cooling part with the three butons is hard to understand, and I think there is a bug beacause "cooling the reactor" was checked only when I called in the manager office (the last thing I did).
But well done :slight_smile:
I know the cooling part is confusing. This event is a timed event and can happen multiple times in a run. This is the reason it only finished after the last checklist is done (except the leaving). As it is working as designed and not a bug, it's a task I will correct post-jam.
