5urv1v0r

Submission for the GMTK Game Jam 2020!

The theme for the jam was "Out of Control," which I incorporated into this game in two different ways.

The first is from a lore perspective, as this game takes place after a robot uprising in a post-apocalyptic steampunk-ish world. (Get it? The robots went 'out of control'...yeah i know it's not that creative)

The second is from a gameplay perspective, as you are playing as a healthcare robot whose only job is to help humans...the humans, however, are terrified of all robots and will flee at the sight of you. It is your job to get them safely to the exit zone by "herding" them towards it.

The levels are procedurally generated with an ever-increasing amount of people to save. It's basically reverse pac-man.

Contrary to the splash screen, a gamepad isn't actually required (definitely recommended tho), and you can use WASD to control the camera. Arrow keys for moving around. Press F to switch perspective.

KNOWN BUGS:

1. After loading a new level, the game will randomly crash.
