Summarise your game!
Bitkin is a top-down 2d puzzle game about gathering resources and solving logic puzzles. A brief story explanation is given at the start of the game, and all controls are present on screen at all times during gameplay.
Please explain how your game fits the theme:
You play as Drillkid, the ultimate weapon of the Bitkin! You are created at times of war with the Bitkin's natural enemy, the Rustkin. Using your abilities, you must defend the Bitkin homebase as they generate resources. These resources are used to upgrade your workstations, create new Bitkin, and keep the Bitkin working steadily. Creating different types of Bitkin will allow Drillkid to open chests around the world, which upgrade his arsenal of abilities!
Is there anything you'd like the judges to pay particular attention to?
We are very proud of the Bitkin themselves and the attention to detail we gave to their creation. Overall, the game is probably pretty lengthy if you try to play the whole thing, but we hope whatever amount of time you spend with it gives you a good sense of what we were aiming for. Most of all, we hope you have fun!

I enjoyed solving riddles but going back and fort again and again felt tedious
but still, It was a fun game. great job on your submission!
Thanks so much for playing! It's awesome to see that someone made it all the way to the end!!!
That is totally fair and I agree that it can be tedious - at some point during the planning stages we were hoping to add teleporters to each room that took you back to the workstations, but that never panned out.
Out of curiosity, do you know how long it took you to finish it?
honestly, I am not sure, around 30 minutes to an hour-ish maybe?
Neat game, it didn't seem like there was much you could do to stop the Rustkins from blowing your Bitkin up while you're away opening a chest. Really loved the "character creator" when you're building a Bitkin and the sound effects
Thanks for playing BITKIN! Agreed, developing a more robust Bitkin defense system for when you're away solving puzzles is something we've discussed internally. We're glad you enjoyed using the character creator to design your own Bitkin. It was a funny coincidence that you also made a game about little dudes for this jam :D
Cool concept. It reminds of Pikmin a little
Definitely a bit Pikmin inspired! Thanks so much for playing!
