A downloadable game for Windows

Station Escape!
You are a robot named Drio on a doomed space station which is on fire!
The heat from the flames drain your battery life, which you must preserve if you want to escape!

This is a personal project of mine where I test my knowledge in Lua to try and make a game. I made it in summer of 2021 and left it for a while, only to pick it up again in 2023 and start updating it.
It is the first original video game I have ever made.

------
P or ESC to pause the game

M to mute or unmute background music

WASD/Arrow keys to move

Moving left (slowing down) will use up less energy

Moving right (boosting/speeding up) will use up more energy

Collect the batteries to restore energy (represented by the lightning bolt symbol)

and avoid the fireballs (youll know em when you see em)

Anyways, thank you for playing.

When I was supposed to complete the level I got the error

As for the game itself it had a fun idea, but the movement felt way too slow for the size of the play area.

Thank you for the feedback, I will try and make the player movement faster and more fluid in the next update.
The error you received is also being worked on, I apologize for the inconvenience!
