Save the Reactor by Tvorojok
What if you happened to be in a control room of a nuclear reactor and something went wrong? In this game you have an opportunity to fully experience these emotions! Yeah, and prepare for things to get tense, because the reactor control panel is not a toy for you, and every element here is of vital importance. And do not forget to boil the kettle to relieve your head after a hard day with a cup of hot tea.
P.S. we agree that 15 minutes might be a bit long. We wanted to create the atmosphere of a stressful but enjoyable work and that's why we made a longer play time. As the time passes you start to make small mistakes which can build up the stress even more.

Managed to win finally :v:
The downside is, that it is realy hard. I didn't manage to win the game. :cry:
I recommend to use clearer symbols to represent different minigames, as at first i wasn't able to quickly connect the symbol to the right minigame.
Also i received enjoyable audio and visual feedbacks.
Graphic is just amazing, a beautiful use of pixel art!
The only thing, in my opinion, is 15 minutes too much.
1. You start to make mistakes and blunt a little at the end, because you are already tired. 2. I wanted to exhaust the player so that he could feel the state of difficult work. Therefore, I'm sorry that I'm a little delayed, but what can you not do for the right emotions and atmosphere!
Thanks for playing guys, great job! We discussed everything on the stream yesterday. This game makes you sweat)
Wow this was so much fun, I played for 40 minutes I think.
The art ist beautiful the music perfect for the theme and the visual style,
the gameplay clear, and the story is to real. Definetly one of my favourites in this jam.
Отличная работа ребята. Так держать.
Brilliant game, everything was implemented flawlessly. It was very difficult for me, but it's an exceptional take on the theme and an entry to the jam! Well done!
This game is criminally underrated as of yet here.
Really well done on the game, the various controls are fun and varied and it keep you on the edge throughout the game.
Some button are a bit small which add too the stress but overall I do not have issue with the game. It looks great, sounds amazing and play really well. Top notch!
So what actually is the bottom right minigame? And why is there a trophy looking icon below your time, is there post game content?!?! Also, what does the kettle boiling mean?
The music was also quite good, but I feel like it drowned-out the sound effects a bit.
We didn't have time to insert all the panels, there should have been more mini-activities. That's how it looked:
The trophy icon was meant for endless game mode, it would show the best time you have achieved but we cut it at the last moment..
➕ интересный прогресс сложности
➕ прикольный визуальный стиль
➖ большая длительность
➖ высокая сложность ближе к концу
➖ под конец нет времени читать как действуют модули
⚡быстрая правка⚡: уменьшить врем до 10 минут и облегчить тайминги всех механики
Есть прогресс сложности-и это шикарно! Я, конечно не смогла добраться до конца игры (в виду своей рукож0пости), но как же все хорошо работает. И индикаторы и пояснялочки! Отличная работа, ребята!!!
