Number Station by Sloan Kelly

[raw]
made by Sloan Kelly for LD 39 (COMPO)

You are alone.

A rescue ship is on the way, but it is 10 hours out and you have a dwindling oxygen supply.

You can chop down the local vegetation to extract oxygen to top up your suit. You will also need to located batteries and the ship's radio that you seem to have become separated from.

Make sure you have enough power before the rescuers arrive! That radio has to be transmitting for them to pick up your distress signal.

Use the W, A, S and D or arrow keys to move. Chop down trees by running into them. Drop off batteries at the radio to keep the signal broadcasting.

Source code for Unity 5.6 is below as is the executable for Windows.

Your link is broken! The most common way of hosting files is to post them in a publicly accessible folder on Google Drive or Dropbox. You say you're using Unity, so you'll probably want to upload a single zip file with all the files necessary to run the game.

Graphics were consisten and sound effects were fine. Could have used some music, even just a light drum beat in the background can do a lot for a game. It felt more like the oxygen was running out more than the power, and the trees barely gave any oxygen... poor trees. I can see that you did that to make the player keep moving around, but once I found out 3 batteries fully charges the radio I just went around chopping trees til the time ran down, then went back and plopped in 3 batteries for the win.

---

If I could change one thing on this game I think it would be that you need to collect a certain number of batteries to power the radio to call for help before the time runs out, and then just make trees give more oxygen and there be less trees. Then it would force the player to go out and get the batteries as opposed to just wasting time til it gets close to the end.

---

It feels like you probably just ran out of time or perhaps got stuck on something along the way. But it is better than quite a few of the games I've played so far. I'll look forward to what you make next time!
