Congratulations! Today is your first day at a nuclear reactor. As you know, the energy of the nucleus can be unstable, and even more so in our reactor.

The goal of the game is to prevent an accident at the reactor and hold out for the entire working day. And, of course, enjoy the process itself.

If you do not repair the breakdowns in the reactor system, then the power generated by it will drop, and you, of course, will be fired.

If you do not follow the position of the absorber rods, the core temperature will begin to fluctuate, which can lead to an explosion.

_!----IMPORTANT----!_
The reactor rod control lever moves chaotically down or up, the main task is to keep it in the green zone and monitor the temperature, and the chaos of this lever depends on breakdowns, the more breakages the more unstable it moves. The countdown begins when the reactor has a high temperature or when it produces little power.

The game day lasts from 8 am to 4 pm.

Controls:
- W A S D - Movement
- Space - Next sentence
- E - Interact
- Mouse - Balancing Reactor Rods

Interesting game, but it was game over too fast. I did not have enough time to figure out what to do

Fun Little Game I Got Stuck When The Timer Hit Zero But Other Than That Fun Game

Love your game idea! I would love to see more mechanics implemented there. For example adding some interactive features. Simply pressing E and waiting is too boring. But still, nice game and I really enjoyed playing it!

Nice! I made a game similar to yours!

Interesting concept.

I ran into a bug though, where I reset the absorber rods the second the thing was gonna explode and got locked into a state where the second counter was locked to zero. No more breakdowns happened, and time progressed normally. So I survived, but... y'know.

Took me a little while to understand how balancing the position of the rods worked in addition to just fixing broken things. I think a mini map or other indicator showing where things are broken would be nice! Really like the atmosphere, graphics and sound. Nice work!

I love the art and audio. The fixing mechanic could be improved to be more like balancing the rods.

Phew... really difficult to keep this place from exploding. :-)
Fun idea and well executed. Keep it up.

Cool game design, but kinda hard to understand the objective cause theres not much time

I tried a few times but never got past 8am. There seems to be a bug where the timer does not get reset when you fix something so if anything else breaks while fixing, you lose. Cool graphics and atmosphere, though.

Really cool task balancing idea, you can really feel the tension while playing!

Great graphics and audio, but the gameplay loop is a bit repetitive

As mentioned above, the graphics and sound are excellent.
I would also like to allocate a timer for 10 seconds. In 9 out of 10 cases when I saw him, I lost. Because at that time there were 2 breakdowns and I did not have time to run and fix everything... -_-

Well done! Still, people love to fix something) The sound is pleasant, I love pixel art with all my heart and here I appreciated it. I haven’t managed to hold out until the end, but it’s always welcome to blow up and to be fired)) I will play again, great work

Cool game, but... Kick-ass stuffy and boring. There is no challenge for the player. You just wander aimlessly and fix, fix and fix and fix... And also, it was not very pleasant that the fix could not be canceled. But in general, well done).

По арту и звуку - всё прикольно, чем-то напомнило макпиксель.
Однако как то скучновато, отсутствие хоть какого-то интерактива делают игру слишком рутинной :( Было бы классно если были бы добавились мини-игры в стиле Амогуса.
