Very Interesting idea, I love the art style so far, would love to see how the explosion effects end up looking. Keep it up :-D

In my head, I kind of hear those 8-bit sound explosions, super cool! Brings back a lot of memories :-D

the art work is incredible

The artwork is brilliant, and the movement is fluid. It did take me a few minutes to understand how the inventory system worked. The crafting element is well engineered and the sprite effects were a very nice touch.

I managed to get the exam cancelled and learnt a lot about chemistry and the art of nuke-building :D

The crafting system took some time to get into. Once I got the hang of things I had lots of fun combining random elements. Going to have to try that plastic recipe at home. The story behind everything was funny (and I'm pretty sure I know who Vlad is, did notice that "from Kim" on the accelerant). Got stuck for a while until I realised that I could use my security card to get to the good stuff.

My only suggestion would be to try to make the item selection a bit more user-friendly. Only having Q to scroll one way (and the item you select resets after placing an element, but the name doesn't update correctly) was a bit annoying, especially when I had to try lots of different combinations.

Great sound and the end game scene was great.

I enjoyed the game a lot ;) Well done!

We'll definitely work on the item selection some more, but unfortunately that's all we had time to do in 48 hours. We're glad you enjoyed the game! Thanks a lot for the feedback!
