Also fucked the name up of the compo entry. Woo!

A console game is always cool!
Nice game.

Oh, and i almost forgot to mention and i seem to have lost the ability to edit the first post but...

There's a small easter egg in the game too!

Resting doesn't seem to have a negative effect, the machine does'nt get a turn to attack/rest. Also, gaining 500+ energy per resting turn is op. Entering 0, 4 or anything else that's not a command (from the ones I tried) results in the "you don't have enough energy" error.

upgradecap 2014-12-07 23:05

Updated it! Should've fixed the problems it had plus the energy stacking issue.

a console game about fighting evil soda machines? I'm in! :D
funny game, I wonder what is inside that can of unknown content I was just thrown with D:

I love text based games so this was actually quite fun. Good work.

I'm actually glad I found a console game, at least this is different to everything I've seen so far.

Funny premise. I was defeated but it I had the machine down to 3 HP, very exciting. Sorry to hear about your issues, good on you all the same, next time.

I always appreciate text games, especially when they run in the command line :D Charming idea and functional gameplay, even though it can be very tough depending on your luck (then again, fighting a soda machine in real life probably isn't much easier.)

Sorry to hear about the challenges you had. Not bad for a console game whipped up in one day.

Awh I lost ): Haha, cool to see you still posted something! It was a nice variation from all the other games. Still nicely done hehe. "I'll try and make an actual -game-" IT WAS, you silly.

Well, I certainly know what it's like to want to submit SOMETHING. So hey, at least you got something done! And you've probably learned a lot from this experience. ;) The game is simplistic, but okay, though it needs some editing ("loosing", "it's"). Also, a lot of times I wasn't sure if the game would advance with waiting or a key press, and then I got impatient waiting...and is there any way to exit other than pressing the X?

Thank you everyone for providing critical feedback! It's been a great time, and i'll try not to make the same mistakes again!
