Polymath

STORY

In the far future, mega-corporations have a monopoly on every aspect of human life and simply getting-by is a premium expense. Planet Earth is a distant memory and humankind compete with crude AI and androids to serve their corporate tyrants in space colonies.

Do you keep your head down and do your job?

or

Can a simple construct like you save humankind from annihilation?

It's up to you to make the right choice...

And Make it Pronto!

Instructions

Controls - WASD or Arrow keys

DEV MESSAGE

Thank you for checking out my game. This one took longer than expected.

I hope you enjoyed this silly dystopian sci-fi horror mash up.

I'd like to give a special thank you to my  pal Rob and my brother-in-law Oliver for helping with some of the daft product names. Some of them still bring a tear to my eyes.

I've got a feeling this might be my last Bitsy game as I'm excited to work with Pico-8 to make more ambitious things.

If you enjoyed playing it, please consider donating a couple quid and/or sharing with your friends on social media.
