Toxicity
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
The goal of this game is to fix pipes before too much gas leaks.
We had fun making this game. This project feels a lot more polished compared to our previous one.
Pretty much non stop work went into this game over the last 3 days, so we hope you will enjoy this game as much as we enjoyed making it.
Controls:
1. "E" to pick up wrenches and power cells.
2. "Left Click" to use the wrenches and power cells.
3. "W, A, S, D" and "L-Shift" to move and sprint.
4. "Esc" to open pause menu.
Warning:
The sound might be a little loud. (Didn't have time to add a volume setting.)
Thank you for checking out this project! :)

Fun little game, I can tell you put a lot of time into it. Managed to get 13:57 (so close to 14 minutes!). I really like this style of game, I love the kind of pressure they can put you under, but I do think there are a few problems. I find these kinds of games are best when they start managable but force you to think and act faster until you eventually either start making mistakes or falling behind pace. But I never found that this game made me really feel that crunch. Part of it is that even when sprinting from room to room I always felt that I had time to think ahead, I felt like I was moving slowly enough to stay in control and stay calm. Certain actions also felt a bit slow, picking up wrenchs off the wall felt way more akward then it needed to be and sometimes wrenchs just wouldn't throw even when looking at a broken pipe. These wouldn't be too bad if the game wasn't about speed but having to slow down occasionally for a second or two because your wrench didn't throw properly can really throw off the rythem of the game. Also the games feel a bit long, I would be willing to experiment more and try to optimize my strategy to get a faster time but having to spend 10+ minutes just to have a chance to beat my record is pretty long and repetitive. I think having a faster, more hectic, and shorter game would have been an improvement.
Other then those problems I think the rest of the game is pretty good. Sorry if I seemed a bit negative above but I think the game was close to being great! I liked the art, atmosphere, and sound(don't worry it wasn't too loud) and the basic mechanics were fun to play with.
I'll definitely be following "E.server" to see what you get up to next.
Good luck in your future projects! :)
