Presentation
"What To Do When Your Drive Is Full" or as it's full name *"What To Do When Your Drive Is Full And You Can't Delete Files Because It's Your Holiday Pictures With Your Wife And Your Dog"*, is a puzzle game about cleaning your hard drive. The goal is simple: get your files either in the trash bin or in the cloud and don't forget to compress them when needed!
The game is only featuring 8 -not so difficult- levels because I started working on this only on Sunday afternoon (couldn't find an idea with this s\*\*\*\*y theme).
Rules
- Files come out of the hard drive in random order, always on the same side
- You must use arrows, splitters and zippers to get them in the correct output (internet or trash)
- Files can enter the outputs on any side
- An already filled output will not accept any file
- Files can touch each other (I don't want them to but I had not enough time)
- One file cannot collide with a wall
- One file should always be on a tile (cannot be the gray void)
Tiles
- Wall: Decorative tile with the functional equivalent of the void. Files can't go there
- Drive: Where your files are stored and will come out when you press the play button
- Arrow: Used to redirect files in another direction
- Splitter: Redirect one file out of two in one direction and the other one in the opposite direction
- Zipper: Will compress any file on it into a .zip
- Bin: One of the output, can accept anything
- Internet: The other possible output, can also accept anything
