How To Play

Keep the train moving! If your Speed Reaches Zero, it's Game Over!

Use first-person controls - W.A.S.D and Mouse.

The train has many devices like the Engine, Turrets, Shield and Coolant Tanks. Insert a Battery into a device to power it.

Click+Drag to Carry a Battery

You’ll need to make sure that the Engine gets powered often, or else the train will slow down. But remember, if you overheat the Engine, it’ll stall.

(Hint: Use the Coolant Tanks to reduce Heat quickly!)

Pretty nice game! I really enjoyed playing it, but after few minutes it came easy to control heat and speed.

Wow, this is really ambitious! I was having some trouble with the web version on my computer - the window was not "catching" my mouse, so any time I tried to look too far the mouse would leave the screen and I lost control. Also, I had a hard time keeping track of what everything does in game. I recognize that this is kind of a janky solution, but you may want to consider having text pop up over items that just say "coolant" or "gun".

Nice job! Also, make sure that you visit other people's games - your game will not get featured if your account is not tracked reviewing other people's games. Good luck!

Fun idea, but needs more polishing.
