Checking the news one night you hear a report about a notorious serial killer has broken out of prison and is on the run. Nothing too out of the ordinary for the news..... until your house gets hit with a total electrical blackout. Try to stay alive by pumping the gas in your generator to keep the lights on in your house. The man outside has a piercing glare.

GAME JAM SUBMISSION DISCLAIMER

Some of you may remember that I tried doing this for day 4 and it ended so badly that I corrupted the entire project basically making everything broken beyond repair. I got really bummed out about it especially since I contacted one of my 3D artist friends to help out. (It left me so burnt out I didn't do day 5 of this jam)

So I decided to work on a Day 6 version to reintegrate the stuff I did. I've basically have had to work from scratch so the advantage has not been that crazy. (Especially since this project is now WAY DIFFERENT)

The way I am interpreting it is since I wasn't part of this specific chain of games I believe I am in the right to do this. If not I understand. I just want to get something up for my friend.

I've absolutely loved doing this game jam and it's community I hope to see it again in the future. 

(Hopefully with less days tbh)
