You have been sent to explore another planet for future colonisation.
A fuel leak means you are no longer able to return home without more fuel, and to make things worse a natural disaster will occur in 15 days.
Using your trusty robot and some SCIENCE, mine enough fuel and metal to upgrade your robot, fill up your fuel tanks and escape disaster.
How to Play
====
The objective is to collect enough fuel to escape the planet. To do so you need to navigate the world and find fuel deposits.
Watch out for your power meter, as you move it depletes and when you run out of power you need to wait a day or return to base.
You can only return to base if you are close enough (the orange bar is higher than the green bar).
If you run out of power too far from your base you will need to recharge and skip a day (as well as the chance to upgrade your robot).
When you return to your base you can upgrade your robot to make it travel further and carry more.
You can offload resources at your base without ending the day by pressing "Use" when you are nearby (the green bar should not be visible in the power meter).
When you offload resources without ending the day, you will gain and immediate recharge for your robot.
