Story

A special operation was carried out to extract the most important radioactive element from the bowels of the Earth by using a specialized robot. The robot successfully reached the element. It turned out that the element is extremely unstable and emits destabilizing waves making the robot UNSTABLE! Suddenly lava rises! Your mission is critical – deliver the element to the surface by controlling the unstable robot.

The robot is now under your CONTROLL!

--------------------------------------

Instructions

:tada: Win condition – reach the top of the level.

The robot can do one of three actions:
* Dash – robot performs jump in the direction to the cursor
* Jump – robot performs long jump upwards
* Shot – robot shoots a projectile that kills monsters and destroys crates

:bulb: Shots can be used to perform a small jump in a reverse direction

Actions are queued randomly and will be executed one by one on mouse click. The current action is displayed on the robot's monitor face.

:notebook_with_decorative_cover: If actions are performed too quickly – the robot will be overheated and shut down for a short duration (_2 seconds_).

Good luck! Help the unstable robot to bring the vital element to the surface!
