GGJ20 Project plan

Concept

You are a repair robot. You arrive via a teleporter, which immediately breaks down by sucking items off of you and then exploding. You collect its parts, bring them back to make repairs bit by bit, and each time the portal grows a little stronger. As the portal improves, your items are chucked through it at you. These are upgrades that help you reach new parts of the map.

Upgrade ideas

1. Bottom thruster for jumping
2. Rear thruster for dashing (spanning longer gaps, moving up steep slopes)
3. More fuel or something to allow you to double jump??
