:dog: You are LD39, the space dog, on the *USS WISHBONE.*

Are you a Good Boy?
-------------

You have four power consumers, three batteries, two chargers, one reactor. *What could possibly go wrong?*

The *WISHBONE's* main reactor was struck by an antimatter asteroid! Now, she's running on emergency power... with the crew fast asleep in cryo stasis, only this dog can help the A.I. prevent disaster!

:dog::video_game: Windows (Recommended)
------------------------
:globe_with_meridians::keyboard: Browser (HTML5)
------------------------
*(Windows download is only 30MB, and the browser version has some sound issues)*

How to Play:
------------------------
- Place batteries in the slots to power the ship's systems (Shields, Weapons, Helm, Cryo)
- Certain situations need certain systems to be running.
- If Cryo Vault is without power too long, the crew will slowly thaw... and die.
- Be a good boy and listen to the A.I.
- Recharge at the Charger Manifold

- :keyboard: Cursor Keys to move and Space to interact
- :video_game: GamePad to move and Button A to interact

Can you save the ship?!?
------------------------
Every couple of minutes, a new crisis will hit the ship. LD39 is tasked by the A.I. to be a Good Boy and power the correct systems so the ship can continue its mission!

There's about 20 minutes worth of "Crisis" events in the game. It gets pretty hard, but the initial order of events is identical (but the timing may vary!). It helps to practice and experiment, and use your downtime well!

Hints:
-----------------
- Crises end faster only if all the requested systems are powered.
- Check the TODO-List in the screen corner!
- Once the Cryo Power is restored, injured crew slowly heals.
- Batteries don't recharge when the Reactor is empty.
- Don't forget to pick up your Space Doggy Treats!
- Be *very well prepared* for the [(Spoiler - 31toR ni uraM ihsayaboK).

Recommended Version:
--------------------
If you can at all, do download the Windows version! It runs better than the embedded version.

Known Issues:
------------------
- Gamepad doesn't work in Internet Explorer or Edge
- Some Sounds in Web Version have an unpleasant "click" (only half-fixed)

Changelog:
-----------------
- Moved the alert text down a notch, as it was covering the game on some screens
- I found some of the broken sounds and replaced them (this also causes less voice spam at times)
- You were often only getting the basic doggy treat amount, no matter how well you mastered a crisis :frowning:
