yes

Summarise your game!
The player is a new AI OTIS that has been installed in a new machine. The player will be presented with a machine interface that houses multiple components. Each of these components will have a specific puzzle that must be completed if the component is randomly failed. As the game progresses, the player will choose new upgrades. The player will balance performing different puzzles with time management to reach the goal of finishing all three levels. You are an AI that progressively learns more about its situation and how it fits with the theme of the jam.

Control is via Clicking. Tutorial and intro scenes can be skipped using escape. Pause menu with Escape. Escape can also be a shortcut to go back to rooms.

Please explain how your game fits the theme:
We use the story most to fit into the theme interpretation where there is a twist that relates to how the AI you play as learns what its purpose is. Second to this is the interpretation that you are a weapon against faults in a system. More specifics including spoilers are in the GDD.

Is there anything you'd like the judges to pay particular attention to?
in level three you learn about the "twist" though there is a cutscene that emphasizes this if you beat that level. Please give it an honest go and hope it's fun :)
