Hi.

You are TERRY. Toast-Ejecting Recoil and Reload sYstem. A toaster, technically.

You wake up and find yourself in a strange place. Eerie... With many of your internal components missing. Salvaged for scrap! Oh no! You should probably try to get back home.... (Home... Ahh... Willy's Wheat Farm... the idyllic pastures and solitude...)

Anyway, back to business....

* Shoot toast by clicking.
* This will recoil you in the opposite direction, so shoot downwards to move upwards.
* Popping balloons will boost you further.
* Upgrade your trusty toaster by trading in energy cubes. Upgrade your:
* Weapons
* Battery power (ammo)
* Altitude (max height).
* Watch out!
* The later enemies will go for the energy cubes directly as they spawn, STEALING them from right under your nose.
* Escape the foreign planet's harsh climate and gravity, and return home.

* Press F for fullscreen.

Tools


* C++ using ARK2D Framework, with Emscripten for WebGL build.
* Photoshop CC 2017 for art and animation (not the best tool for the job).
* Reaper DAW with ReaSynth VST and ReaSamplomatic5000 VST for music. Drum samples are C64, I think.
* BFXR for SFX.

Update Note


* The updated version on Game Jolt is < 1hr extra work after the deadline and only includes cost of upgrade changes. Try that one if you so wish!
