The machine that created you is hungry. You must feed it, by any means necessary.

PLEASE double tap pause (Tab or the P key) to lock your mouse to the center of the screen when the main level loads.

CONTROLS:

WASD to move, space to jump.

Space in the air to glide. Shift to go faster.

F repairs a drill.

R calls in a turret.

Click to shoot.

B to buy from the shop.

Esc, Tab and P pause the game.

Also compatible with a controller.

SUMMARY: A first person game about extracting resource from surrounding floating islands to enlarge your own. You must buy drills to extract resource, which enlarges your island, but buying them costs resource which shrinks it. There are also inhabitants who will destroy your drills so you also must buy turrets to defend them.

NOTE: Due to an obscure audio bug, the WebGL version does not have adaptive music. The game is best played in the downloadable Windows version.

BUG: In the Windows version, when starting the tutorial level, the cursor is not locked to the center of the screen. Double tap pause (or in the post jam version double click) to fix this. (This bug is caused by the third-party dialogue system).

NOTE: The post jam version fixes a few bugs (except for the enemies getting stuck in the drills, they can be killed with turrets).

Unfortunately the game glitches as soon as I click on it for the first time :(

Cool concept ! I love the tower defence mechanic

I just had a little problem with a mob beeing stuck in the drill. The only way I found to kill him was to spawn a turret. 

Otherwelse good job ! 

If you want to test back our game for the GMTKGame Jam 2024 : Feed The Beast. Feedbacks are appreciated too.

That's due to a navigation bug that we had to fix last minute where the enemies could not attack the turret. The side effect was that you can't shoot them with your gun.
Thanks for the feedback!

Indeed understandable! ๐Ÿ‘
