It's a really nice take on the theme !\n\nSometimes the controls seemed a little off, like the cleaner slowly going down for no reason. I'm still not sure whether the tools collide together or not, but it seemed a little weird from time to time.\n\nThe visuals are clean and do the job!\n\nThe music and sound effects are very good. It was fun to see someone using Musescore too, it got me curious and checked it out.

I felt my brain melting while I struggled to move both the cleaner and the drill where I wanted (that is also a good thing I guess). It is so hard to stop the drill from going away while I'm moving the cleaner, ugh!\n\nI must admit, I started with much lower ratings and gradually increased them as the horror faded and I realized that you actually deserved the points.\n\nIt really is an awesome game... and I will never play it again :sweat_smile:","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":655266,"author_name":"Vasco Freitas","author_uid":"vasco-freitas","epoch":1619567669,"text":"This was actually pretty cool, and very fun. I've not seen anything like it. My cleaner got stuck once, I'm not sure why. I like how the infected area spreads and you desperately try to fix one area while the other's getting worse.
