Killer robot in Hangillion

What it is

A laboratory, a warning lamp and a robot with a cannon for an arm. Red sight dots crawl over his chest, one more for each wrong letter. When the last one lands the beam fires and he is, briefly, an X-ray, and then ash.

Everything is drawn in pixels, in black, gray, white and two reds, and it is a cartoon: no real people, no real places. It runs in your browser, with no download.

How it plays out, one wrong letter at a time

1. 1. The robot wakes up.
2. 2. One red dot.
3. 3. Two.
4. 4. A thin sight line from the cannon.
5. 5. The cannon starts to charge.
6. 6 (the last life). The beam.

Guess the word before the last step and he lives. The scene eases back and he smiles.

What you hear

A rising whine, a laser, a hiss and a pile of ash settling. The sounds are made in your browser, so there is nothing to load, and you can switch them off with the sound button.

Setting: A metal laboratory with a flashing lamp.

How to get it

It comes with Hangillion Max: every ending, now and later, and unlimited words. You can watch it loop in the “Ways to die” gallery on the Hangillion menu, whether or not you own it.
