You are a scientist piloting an interstellar research vessel.
After a sudden cosmic storm forces you to crash-land on an unknown planet, you must rely on your trusty companion — Taco, the garbage collection and recycling robot — to gather resources from the alien terrain and help you survive until you can return home.

你是一名驾驶着恒星际科研船的科学家，因为一场突如其来的宇宙风暴迫降在陌生的行星上。为了存活下去回到母星，请你的好朋友垃圾清运回收机器人“塔可”帮忙，收集星球上的各种资源，度过难关吧！
操作 / Control
1. Use WASD to move Taco around and collect resources scattered across the map.
2. Taco’s storage capacity is limited — remember to return to the storage tank to unload materials.
1. 使用 WASD 操纵塔可上下左右移动，收集地图上的资源
2. 塔可容量有限，所以请记得回到储藏罐清空资源
注意 / Attention
1. Taco’s storage bag is fragile — if it breaks, return to the ship for repairs!
2. Some resources may react with each other... and then... click!
3. I really just want to go home... 555...
1. 塔可的储藏袋很容易破，破掉的时候请回到太空船维修！
2. 有些资源会互相反应……然后……砰！
3. ~~我真的很想回家555……~~
Can you find the ending? XD

Annonucements on Bugs (V1.1 update)
Most bugs have been fixed, thanks to @fan and @imos.Some tiny bugs might persist:
* The container of robot might become invisible on certain devices, but it should functions properly.
* The container of robot become invisible after being repaired in H5 version of game, but it should functions properly.
* Spilt ore might "push" away the airship.
We are also aware that the tutorial is too simple and the task guidance is not so clear. As an emergency fix, we have uploaded a version with cheat codes:
* Hit "K" to win the current level (Better after the dialog).
* Hit "L" to lose it.
Though the latter might seem quite useless, we did add it on purpose. Please feel free to try them out.
Additional Tutorials and Other
The in-game task guidance is too vague, so I'll explain here: To win a level, you have to collect enough ore of each type indicated by up to three canisters near your airship. To store ores into canisters, wait in the colored zone in front of the canisters for about 3 seconds. Taking too much ore at the same time (too heavy, in a word) might damage your container, which will eventually break it. In that case, you have to park at the green zone near your airship until your container is repaired.Some ores have special characteristics:
* Lava ores damage your container on contact, and "annihilate" when they meet ice ores. Try to avoid such reactions by spiltting them with other ores, or simply put them into their canister asap.
* Ice ores shrink over time in your container and on the ground other than ice terrain. Try not to spill them.
The game tasks are auto-generated, so are the maps. It can be as simple as collecting only stones. Or as hard as collecting three different kinds of ores. Try to adjust your strategy accordingly, or combine your driving and floor-sweeping skills like a real sweeper.
How to reach the ending (Spoilers)
After you have completed five to ten levels (this is auto-generated, too), there will be no more dialogs (the last line should be "goodnight", or "晚安" in Chinese). And if you lose after that, you will reach the ending of the game.In fact, the intended expereience of the game is that the first three levels get gradually harder and introduce new ores. And after that, there will be infinite similar levels since they are generated. At a certain point, player will lose a level, rather out of difficulty or boredom. And we want to surprise them at this point.

Bug公告（V1.1 更新）
大部分漏洞已被修复，感谢 @fan 和 @imos 在V1.0后的不懈努力。
游戏还有一些小问题：
* 机器人的容器在部分设备上可能会变得不可见，但应该能正常工作。
* 掉落的矿石可能会“推开”飞船。
我们也意识到游戏内的教程过于简单，任务引导也不够清晰。作为临时修复方案，我们上传了带有作弊码的版本：
* 在关卡内（最好先看完对话）按下 K 可以直接赢得当前关卡
* 在关卡内按下 L 会直接失败。
虽然后者看起来何意味，但我们确实是有意加上的。欢迎大家自由尝试。
补充教程与其他说明
游戏内的任务引导比较模糊，这里做进一步说明：
要通关一个关卡，你需要收集足够数量的各类矿石——这些类型由飞船旁最多三个储罐所提示。
要将矿石存入储罐，请在储罐前方对应颜色的区域停留约 3 秒。
一次携带过多矿石（也就是太重）可能会损坏容器，最终导致其破裂。
此时你需要停靠在飞船旁的绿色区域，等待容器自动修复。
部分矿石具有特殊性质：
* 岩浆矿石：接触容器壁时会造成损伤，并且在遇到冰矿石时会一起消失。请尽量避免这种反应，用其他矿石隔开，或尽快将它们送入对应储罐。
* 冰矿石：在容器中或非冰地形上会随着时间逐渐缩小，请尽量避免让它们掉落。
游戏的任务与地图都是自动生成的。
有时任务可能很简单，比如只需收集石头?
飞船边上满地都是，屑女主不愿自己下船捡，非要让机器人去，你看把机器人的袋子搞坏了吧x
The top right screen with the bits falling into the bag was wonderful too!
Taco doesn't look like a fast robot so it was kind of weird to see it zoom around. Perhaps the level could have been more condensed in size and then Taco could clean up at its pace... like a roomba.
Good job!
EDIT: I almost forgot. During the starting dialogue there was flashing between the bubbles. I was not a fan of that.
Bag mechanic was a bit wonky, but really fun idea. I never broke it, but I drove carefully :smile: which was difficult because the hoover is very fast.
Web version on itch seems to have a lot of freezes. Eventually I downloaded Windows version and everything was alright there.
Very well done :heart:
I love the artwork! The music is pretty good too. The play controls are okay -- I think it would be better if there was a visual indicator to show that you're in the right place for a pickup, and maybe if you didn't have to be at a COMPLETE stop that would help? That was the part that felt the weakest. But that's the only complaint I can make!
