Very hectic but a lot of fun to play. Best I've managed is 112 seconds, gotta be quick to avoid the meltdown!

It seems like there's a lot of fun minigames here but the game feels pretty unintuitive and frustrating. I couldn't really last more than 30-40 seconds.

amogus? Fun game, although a tutorial would be really helpful. Also I couldn't avoid radiation
