Ahead of Steam
Made for Practice Jam 2025 #2 (https://itch.io/jam/practice-jam-2025-2).
Themes:
Steam - You must stay ahead of the steam to get out of the room.
Glitch - A glitch in the heating system has caused serious steam leaks and broken pipes.
Triangularity (bonus objective): You can take the risk of collecting tools and fixing broken pipes for extra points.
About the Game
You are trapped in a room with a glitchy steam heating system! Due to a bug in the heating system's controlling software, steam clouds are leaking all across the room. You must move across the room, one square at a time, and get to the exit (the green flag!)
You can collect tools to fix broken pipes (for extra points), and bombs to clear up one steam cloud at a time.
How to Play:
On the player turn, use the mouse to click on and move to any square adjacent to the player, unless the square has a steam cloud or a pipe. If you have tools or bombs, you can use them instead of moving. You can only use tools and bombs on adjacent broken pipes and steam clouds, by clicking on their squares. Collect tools/bombs by moving onto squares with their icons.
After each player turn, a new steam cloud will pop up on a random tile next to another steam cloud. Watch where you step...if the cloud pops up on your square, it's game over!
