Nuclear Dash by Cosmo-LC

[raw]
made by Cosmo-LC for LD 39 (JAM)

You are a robot in the midst of escaping a nuclear power plant that is on the brink of meltdown! Hurry, escape the power plant before it melts down AND before you run out of energy! Need more power? The only choice is to plug into the outlets scattered about the level, bringing the plant ever closer to meltdown. Tread carefully and budget your resources while running out of the power plant!

Controls: WASD - Move E - Use

Goal: Reach the door at the right side of the level. Which way to go? Walk? Jump?

i finally won! took me a while to figure it out. nicely done for a first LD game. Music or sound would be nice (just place audio source and listener on camera).

It's nice for a first try. Keep on making games, they can only get better from here!

I tried several times but wasn't able to win =( It's nice a nice little game but could be tweaked a little. For starters, a restart button would have been really nice!

I love the irony in the game.. It is a power plant.. A robot escapes from the power plant and while trying, it runs out of power! I like the graphics.. And the very last step.. Oh that step is so tricky. Good game.

Decent game. I couldn't restart my game when I died though (or at least I didn't find out *how*to restart). Some music or sounds would've been nice and really add to the game if you ask me.

Very nice! It reminds me of my humble beginnings. Keep up making games. They will become better each time!

It a cool simple game, I would love to see some audio both music and sfx and a restart button when you lose. But besides that it is a good, that is pretty challenging also, the small wrong moviment you make you make you lose. Good game !

Good first submission, As you probbaly know a few things could have made it better like sounds,music and animation. I did like the idea of the robot havint to charge himself. I do wonder what the top energybar was for. I made it to escape. One thing maybe nexttime add a restart button so i dont have to refresh the page

That was nice, I had some fun with it. The art was ok, and the robot was really funny. I liked the controls, they were easy to use. I was never able to reach the top after 4 retries so I gave up. A restart button would be so appreciated, however, reloading the page didn't take a lot of time and the game starts directly so the lack of a restart button wasn't a big problem for me.

Really hard game. Nice start. Try adding some music and SFX. You can find a lot of free material online!
