An unpaid and overworked robot who is happy to do his job, D.W.I.O. must clean up an infestation of sewer creatures moseying through the Coffee Co factory and recover precious coffee beans. Was the infestation a work of sabotage by Top-Hat Tea-Rex, the CEO of the competing monopoly? Will Coffee Co keep growing as a peaceful, non-aggressive corporation? Perhaps.Uncover the story of a conspiracy against the factory through 3 cut-scenes as you progress through the game. Dismay, dishonesty, and death are abound!
Gameplay
Explore 10 levels worth of content, repair broken pipes, and use the steam found throughout each level to jump when protected by heat armor, lest your circuits fry!At the end of each level, after all leaks are fixed and all valves are shut, send what's left of the coffee supplies found locked away to the main factory floor! Here you can see your progress as the central coffee bean storage fills up.
