Relay - remote control somewhere else
Shift to start
WASD to move, Backspace to reset. Shift to change between rovers.
Put together for the GMTK Jam 2020: Out Of Control.
Shamelessly inspired by Baba Is You (a babalike) - the objective is to get a rover to a goal. Rovers, being a long way away, get instructions from relays. If they don't get instructions, they will automatically shut down.
Four and a bit playable (and solvable!) levels
Level loader included! You can make your own levels by dropping a 32x24, 8-bit bmp into resources/levels in your extracted loader. Use the following colors:
#000000Wall#FF01FFStarting rover
#FF00FFRover#FFFF00Goal#00FFxxRelay of size xx
(ex; a pixel #00FF04 creates a 4x4 relay)
