Matbo

A math game where you need to insert cubes into machines to create calculations!

Created by 4 students for a university game development course in 2,5 months without prior gamedev experience. Inspired by Human Resource Machine and Portal.

Controls:

• WASD: Move
• Space: Jump
• E: Interact and pick up or drop cubes
• Shift: Sprint
• Right Click: Rotate held cube

Gameplay tips:

• Don't feel bad about using a calculator for help, that's intended. A basic one can be found in the pause menu.

• Orange chutes show a number. You must enter a calculation using cubes that will result in that number. Press the button on them to abort the calculation and get your cubes back.

• Green chutes are used for adding numbers together into new cubes. Press the button on them when you're done adding cubes, and want the combined cube to be ejected.

Level 11 in the level select is a testing/demo level with a couple mechanics that were left unused. One is a platform that activates when a cube is placed on it, another is a tube that drops a cube when a button is pushed, and a third is a saw that divides cubes by 2.
