Two nuclear-powered pals. One unstable reactor. Zero time to waste!



Help a pair of toy robots help themselves … out of the scrap heap! Try to keep your fission rate within safe limits as you navigate your way out of the toy factory’s reject pile. Will our heroes balance their instability for long enough to save the day?

Summary



Top-down action-puzzle game. Move the reflector robot to manage the reactor robot's fission rate (too low = shutdown, too high = meltdown), while navigating both robots safely through the environment. The reactor robot produces heat and power, which must also be managed; use power to move and shoot enemies, manage heat with a finite coolant resource.

TIP: to survive you must move the reflector robot away from you using the 'i' key. At the maximum distance your yellow fission bar with decrease and prevent melt-down.
