In this short game you play as a maintenance automaton repairing a clock that is getting destroyed by chaotic energies.


It was done in ~10 days for a game jam requiring less than 5 minutes of gameplay.

Use the arrow keys or WASD: left and right to move, up to jump, down to repair.
Don't let chaos reach the inner gears. If they break, the game ends.
You can use the K key to suicide and restart the game.


Images and animations are all done by programming, using canvas drawing primitives.

So it was not what I was expecting but it had a lot of fun factor and love the clock and gears and just was pretty fun, A fun element here and that's what makes this fun because you can never have too much of some stylish games like this one no but really this was a nice and fun game, The concept was different and unique nice work on the art like the gears and such, Was pretty entertaining and I love the visuals and gameplay and that's what makes this game, A good game here fun entertaining and unique

Thanks!
I've just noticed that leaderboards and medals are not working, maybe I'll try to fix them if I'll manage to find the time to do it. It's 5 years old, but it still holds a special place in my heart <3

So, funny story: I first played this a while ago and just now came back to it. Only today did I notice that I could jump. That made the game *so* much better. Without noticing that part, I'd been forcing myself to scale and descend every tower of gears. I found myself hoping that the machine would break down so I wouldn't have to deal with as much of it.

This time around, I could use the established structure as a tool for reaching the rest of the structure. Combined with the deepening music and the chaos magic's understated but steady increase in the background, it felt more like a willing contest.

...doomed, but willing. Very nice!
