TRASH-OUT is a game where you control a robotic arm to save a polluted pond from drowning in garbage. As Earth's cleanup robot, your mission is to collect and properly sort waste before it's too late.

Gameplay

Guide your robotic arm across the screen to grab floating trash and dispose of it correctly. Each piece of waste must go into its designated recycler. Get upgrades to make your cleanup operation more efficient. The better you sort, the faster you can restore the pond to its natural beauty.

Objective

Victory comes when every last piece of trash has been cleared from the pond. But beware: if garbage accumulates faster than you can collect it, the pollution will overwhelm the ecosystem and you'll lose.

Controls

Use your mouse to control the robotic arm. It turns out that it also works quite well on tablets/smartphones.

My Little Message

TRASH-OUT is meant to remind us that it is our responsibility to keep the earth clean. While AI and technology can help, we shouldn't blindly rely on automation to solve environmental problems. Human awareness and action remain essential.

All assets (including graphics, sounds, music, ...) were created during the jam.
