One thing to note is that I'm pretty sure I got softlocked because the second package I had to deliver was outside my signal range and I didn't have enough money to buy a battery to extend it.

Also, your battery drains 10\u00d7 faster while you\u2019re out of range.\n\nUPD: The Web version has been updated with a fix for the noise overlay and a few small UI improvements. These issues were actually present in the original build but only worked correctly inside Unity during testing, and broke during export.\n\nI also added a killbox at the bottom of the level to prevent potential softlocks \u2014 previously, certain situations could leave you stuck. This doesn\u2019t change the gameplay, it just makes it possible to recover from errors and restart if needed.\n\nThe original version will remain available as the desktop build.\n\nThere\u2019s no ending \u2014 it\u2019s meant to be played as a small sandbox focused on flying and delivering at your own pace.\n\nControls are simple:\n* WASD \u2014 movement,\n* Space \u2014 grab a package with the hook,\n* Mouse \u2014 navigate menus and interface.\n\nFly carefully, don\u2019t lose your cargo, and restore the signal step by step.","title":"Signal Fading","wayback_recovered":true,"wayback_source":{"capture":{"original":"https:\/\/api-jam.ludumdare.com\/vx\/node2\/get\/430501+430502+430503+430504+430505+430506+430507+430508+430509+430510+430511+430512+430513+430514+430515+430516+430517+430518+430519+430520+430521+430522+430523+430524+430525+430526+430527+430528+430529+430530+430531+430532+430533+430534+430535+430536+430537+430538+430539+430540+430541+430542+430543+430544+430545+430546+430547+430548+430549+430550+430551+430552+430553+430554+430555+430556+430557+430558+430559+430560+430561+430562+430563+430564+430565+430566+430567+430568+430569+430570+430571+430572+430573+430574+430575+430576+430577+430578+430579+430580+430581+430582+430583+430584+430585+430586+430587+430588+430589+430590+430591+430592+430593+430594+430595+430596+430597+430598+430599+430600+430601+430602+430603+430604+430605+430606+430607+430608+430609+430610+430611+430612+430613+430614+430615+430616+430617+430618+430619+430620+430621+430622+430623+430624+430625+430626+430627+430628+430629+430630+430631+430632+430633+430634+430635+430636+430637+430638+430639+430640+430641+430642+430643+430644+430645+430646+430647+430648+430649+430650+430651+430652+430653+430654+430655+430656+430657+430658+430659+430660+430661+430662+430663+430664+430665+430666+430667+430668+430669+430670+430671+430672+430673+430674+430675+430676+430677+430678+430679+430680+430681+430682+430683+430684+430685+430686+430687+430688+430689+430690+430691+430692+430693+430694+430695+430696+430697+430698+430699+430700+430701+430702+430703+430704+430705+430706+430707+430708+430709+430710+430711+430712+430713+430714+430715+430716+430717+430718+430719+430720+430721+430722+430723+430724+430725+430726+430727+430728+430729+430730+430731+430732+430733+430734+430735+430736+430737+430738+430739+430740+430741+430742+430743+430744+430745+430746+430747+430748+430749+430750+430751+430752+430753+430754+430755+430756+430757+430758+430759+430760+430761+430762+430763+430764+430765+430766+430767+430768+430769+430770+430771+430772+430773+430774+430775+430776+430777+430778+430779+430780+430781+430782+430783+430784+430785+430786+430787+430788+430789+430790+430791+430792+430793+430794+430795+430796+430797+430798+430799+430800+430801+430802+430803+430804+430805+430806+430807+430808+430809+430810+430811+430812+430813+430814+430815+430816+430817+430818+430819+430820+430821+430822+430823+430824+430825+430826+430827+430828+430829+430830+430831+430832+430833+430834+430835+430836+430837+430838+430839+430840+430841+430842+430843+430844+430845+430846+430847+430848+430849+430850+430851+430852+430853+430854+430855+430856+430857+430858+430859+430860+430861+430862+430863+430864+430865+430866+430867+430868+430869+430870+430871+430872+430873+430874+430875+430876+430877+430878+430879+430880+430881+430882+430883+430884+430885+430886+430887+430888+430889+430890+430891+430892+430893+430894+430895+430896+430897+430898+430899+430900+430901+430902+430903+430904+430905+430906+430907+430908+430909+430910+430911+430912+430913+430914+430915+430916+430917+430918+430919+430920+430921+430922+430923+430924+430925+430926+430927+430928+430929+430930+430931+430932+430933+430934+430935+430936+430937+430938+430939+430940+430941+430942+430943+430944+430945+430946+430947+430948+430949+430950+430951+430952+430953+430954+430955+430956+430957+430958+430959+430960+430961+430962+430963+430964+430965+430966+430967+430968+430969+430970+430971+430972+430973+430974+430975+430976+430977+430978+430979+430980+430981+430982+430983+430984+430985+430986+430987+430988+430989+430990+430991+430992+430993+430994+430995+430996+430997+430998+430999+431000?authors&parents&superparent"},"object":"objects\/sha256\/0a\/0ac6f34c5cb016ec6eff9d300d676fb31a6c677c519b29e62ad1118cf7e3cf38","record":"shard-3\/json-live-urgent-v3\/records\/a9f596d9d63a2f1beeda80cb9e95e9586e2b1cc0ba3fb43a549cdfa9ea5429df.json","sha256":"0ac6f34c5cb016ec6eff9d300d676fb31a6c677c519b29e62ad1118cf7e3cf38","source":"https","stored_at":1784022522}}
