I really love the idea of mixing resource management and mech combat. Its amazing. And as I love the resource management kinda games I very enjoyed it. My only issue is that how hard did I try, I couldn't be able to use the Venting Wheel. Its not turning.
Did you put a power cell in the panel? I see this is a reoccurring comment so sadly I didn't do a good enough job D:
Oh my gosh so heartbreaking but yea the mechanic is definitely not working! And it works in my editor too. Daaang. I can see the handle highlights properly when you're hovering it but sure enough it won't spin for the life. Ffffffff
Glad you enjoyed the game otherwise though! So much left on the cutting room floor but I'm glad I was able to at least make a complete game loop.
Ayy sorry to spam your comment but I actually found the error and a fix! Unfortunately I learned a real lesson today hahaha
So the issue is caused by me trying to lock the players view in place in a certain way whenever they interact with the wheel. Sadly this is not supported by browsers. Big sad. I DID find a workaround though it's janky af.
When you click and hold on the wheel, if you hit the escape key also (still holding left click) your mouse will become visible and you'll be able to crank the wheel! Yay! This does definitely mess up the flow big time and kind've makes it impossible to play full screen BUT it is at least playable.
Wow thats really unlucky. Its a problem that you'd never imagine would happen. I will definetly try to keep that in mind when I will need to implement such a mechanic.
Thank you so much for your kindess! I'm sad by the bits I had to leave behind to get the game submitted in time. There was literally less than a minute left in the jam when I got it in! But I'm super satisfied that game actually has a complete loop and the vision itself is still there.

This is really well executed as well taking the power play (pun intended) to the desired level.
Astounding you made it in such time, great stuff.

Tends to be the case with game jams usually, plan small and enrich when you are satisfied... Tend to work for me at least.
Still you've achieved wonderful results per the given time, be proud mate.
woah this is really cool omg
Thank you! I tried lol
Woof! Got it in literally at the last minute. Scary stuff.
Nightmare
Literally under a minute of time left D:
