Something has caused the power core to destabilize and shut down all the power in the facility! Emergency repair drones are being dispatched on reserve power to get to the power core and bring it back online.
Work within the limited battery life of each drone to explore the evacuated facility and restore power.

Edit2: Re-upload with another door locked that was not locked... And play-tested fully to make sure this does not happen again.
While I was not the biggest fan of this theme and had a very difficult time getting locked into the project I am quite happy with how this game turned out. I think that the result amounts to a good framework that could be expanded in the future - the game itself is nothing special but could be a base for more (should I ever get around to it).
I was disappointed that I was not able to get to audio for this game, I think that a couple of sound effects and some background noise would have gone a long way to making this feel like a more complete game. Unfortunately there are only 48 hours in a game jam, and sounds were a lower priority then having a playable game.
I am happy with how the art turned out, while I of course wish I had more environmental litter to give the world a lived-in feel, at the end of the day I am not primarily an artist and I am more then happy with the results, especially the tile-map (I have had trouble getting good tiling in the past).
Overall I had fun with this game jam, and I am generally happy with what I managed to create. Thanks for playing!
