How does your game fit the theme?
This game fits the GMTK 2026 game jam's theme of "Count down" because of the various attributes that are counting down in each phase. The debt is counting down with each bit of money collected. The amount of rope or fuel remaining is counting down with each second. The amount of ammo is a limited resource that is counting down. The amount of time remaining to pay off the debt is counting down.

(Optional) Please credit all assets you've used
I used some fonts from Kenney: Kenney Mini and Kenney Thick. I also used some scripts by Juju Adams: Input, Scribble, and ScribbleJr

The art is so charming, I think if you added upgrades at the end of the jetpack section this could be a great incremental game!

There is just something charming about a game with hand-drawn art & human-made audio, love it! :D

Goofy idea, I really like the way there are two phases, and the way the countdowns in each phase is a physical ressource.

The sound effects are really what elevate this entry, haha. Good job! My one nitpick is that the text is quite difficult to read with that font at that size

Developer

Thank you, I appreciate the note about the font size

Lol the sound effects are hilarious, still don't get what i'm supposed to do on the bats section though, overall simple and fun game

Developer

Thank you!

I love the hand-drawn style and I found the sound effects funny XD I didn't manage to beat the game but maybe it was a skill issue. Overall the game is fun!
