Keep "IT" Alive (RoboDoig)

A minimalist word game for Ludum Dare 46

** HOW TO PLAY **

The goal of the game is to keep a word alive through successive rounds, beginning with the word "IT", and continuing for as many rounds as possible

Each round you get a new set of letters that you can swap in to make a new word before the timer runs out

Once you have made a new word, press **ALIVE** to progress to the next round

You can also press **KEEP** to carry letters over to the next round

As you progress through the rounds, you start to earn powerups which appear at the bottom right:

- **Extra time**
- **Change letters**
- **Extra vowels**

** TIPS **

- The KEEP button is useful for making it further in the game. If you make a word and realise you can extend it with the remaining letters, press KEEP to hold those letters for the next round
- If you're stuck, use your accumulated powerups. Give yourself extra time or new letters

** TOOLS **
- Unity 2019.2.0f1
- Pyxel Edit
- Ableton Live
- "Better Minimal" for WebGL build https://seansleblanc.itch.io/better-minimal-webgl-template
