My battery is low …

… and it is getting dark …



Description:

With only a few points of science left to scan for the mission 

and with the battery running critically low - 

can you help Rovar plot the path that completes it's mission?

You better steer Rovar with care or the already low batteries will run out before the mission is completed!

Delay the inevitable as long as possible to uncover all the secrets buried in the Martian dust.

Controls and objectives:

Click where you want Rovar to move and it'll drive there.

Rovar's Energy drains while driving.

Collect science artefacts and batteries with extra power by having Rovar roll over them.

The Mapscan™ system has conveniently *marked out all the points of interest on the planet map* so keep an eye on it as well as the energy bar.

When the energy bar inevitably reaches 0%, Rovar will not be able to move further and will lose contact with you.


Game Development:

This game was developed by a team of six enthusiasts (and two doggies) Most of the aspects of the game where developed during the first 48 hours of Ludum Dare 50, from idea to final build. All assets in the game where made by the team.

We had an amazingly fun time doing this! <3

We were also a part of Ludum Dare 50! Find us here: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/50/battery-low/
