ZERO GATE is a short physics gate jam game.

Mint coins into a vertical shaft, fire marbles to charge them,

pulse the magnet to align the load, then watch the gate open.

Only coins that pass through count toward the floor target.

• 10 floors of hand-tuned peg layouts

• Marble energy + magnet pulse combat loop

• 8 upgrades (mint, auto, capacitor, flux, chain, rubber, amp, mag coil)

• 3 lives — fail to fill the progress bar and you lose a life

• Overflow progress carries to the next floor

Made for a GMTK-style countdown jam. Browser / HTML5.
