This game was made for the GMTK Game Jam 2021. The basic concept is to bind (or join together) different key action to different objects to solve puzzles. The catch is, you only have 1 key per input to use which can lead to some interesting scenarios.

We did as much as we could, but ran out of time to flesh it out much more. Please forgive the lack of music, sound effects, and overall polish. On the bright side, all art and assets are our own.

We hope you enjoy!


Controls:

Drag the key from the bottom to an object (Player, Fire, Robot, Arrow, Arrow Dispensers etc.) to use that action. Actions include moving, interacting, sprinting, and attacking.

Once you give an input to another object that isn't the player, that object must somehow be destroyed to get your actions back, keep this in mind when solving puzzles.

You can quick equip/de-equip everything to the player with by pressing "Q".

You can also equip/de-equip specific actions to the player by right click that action if it is open.

Once you unlock the "R" key, you can restart a room by pressing at any time (even though it appears it must be assigned).
