Arc-Lighter
Arc-Lighter: Game Introduction
Waking up in an empty space station, you are a robot. Here, the initial signal from the base station is the condition for your survival, while the router can expand the signal range. Both players and base stations require continuous battery replenishment to ensure survival.
Players need to pass through rooms, collecting battery and router resources to survive, while expanding signal range and exploring ways out by installing or removing routers properly.
At the same time, players will see fragments of information in different rooms, which seem to point to what happened here…
And these things will affect your final outcome.
So, welcome to explore here, explore the map, and at the same time, explore your ultimate decision in your heart.
在空无一人的太空空间站中醒来,你是一个机器人。在这里,初始基站的信号是你生存的条件,而路由器能扩大信号范围。玩家和基站的电量都需要不断的电池来来补充,以保证生存。
玩家需要穿过一个个房间,一边搜集电池和路由器资源维持生存,一边通过合理安装或拆除路由器,以扩大信号范围,探索出路。
与此同时,玩家会在不同的房间中看到一些信息的碎片,而这似乎都指向了这里曾经发生的事情......而这些事情,会影响你最后的结局。
所以,欢迎在这里探索,探索地图,同时探索你内心最终的抉择。

And the gameplay works well, good job :D
Gameplay-wise, it’s a solid robot escape mechanic that fits the theme perfectly. The immersion is top-notch, supported by some really impressive audio and music production. You can tell a lot of heart went into the "feel" of the game.
One bit of constructive feedback, while the core loop is well-executed and complete, the gameplay felt a bit monotonous after a while. Adding some more mechanical variety or diverse content would help keep the engagement high for longer sessions.
Overall, it's a very high-quality indie project for a jam! Great job on finishing such a polished entry.
Our web version runs normally. But if you choose to download the game to play, please choose the GAME_Data.zip file. Enjoy your game!
Maybe I've encountered a bug, but all the items in the backpack are depicted as blue rectangles, has been quite confusing.
The graphics really impressed me—everything looks beautiful.
The sense of zero gravity also feels incredible.
Good work -- well done!
I like how the screen dims slowly to tell the player that they are out of the range of the router and that they are in danger, and the fact that the timer gives you just enough time to explore more of the room that is out of range leads to some very tense situations.
Also, I like how the objects are floating around the various rooms. I think this also adds to the atmosphere. Great job! I hope you will expand on the idea and the adventures will continue!
