Mekanaut (DungeonCrawler2023 Jam)

Mekanaut by Eero Höök

Quick How To:

Press F to interact/talk. WASD/Arrows to move. Bump into objects to activate them. Collect resources and grow in power to survive the battles and depths to come.

Notes: Quick spaghetti full of IF-Loops. There are some happy accident bugs related to restarting a run on the Game. It's pseudo "Load Game" and I might use this accidential feature in the future, because I kinda liked it.

Controls:

WASD/Arrows - Move

F - Action / Fire (can hold)

Space - Advance dialogue

Y/N - Agree / Disagree in dialogue

B - Repair

R - Run from Battle

ESC - Volume options menu (only outside of battle)
