D. Scaler (Kenney Jam 2026)
This game was made for Kenney Jam 2026. With the theme being "Scale" I wanted to think outside of the box. Whilst drinking a good cup of tea an idea came to me - descaling the kettle!
Mr. D. Scaler is a small man, small enough to fit in a kettle, but his kettle-cleaning prowess is unmatched. Armed with a descaling gun, blast away that pesky limescale and watch it dissolve before your eyes! But be quick, the kettle is on and if you don't get out in time you will be boiled alive!
Controls:
Use your mouse to rotate and left-click to shoot.
You can shoot one projectile at a time or hold the button for a constant stream.
When the game has ended, press esc to get your mouse cursor back.
Bugs:
Unfortunately something has gone wrong with lighting during export and I ran out of time to fix it so the main gameplay scene is much darker than it should be.

This was a fun short game, the intro was hilarious and a really good addition. The gameplay was simple but fun. Great job!
Thank you so much for the kind comments
Love the backstory + intro! Haha. Great dual interpretation of the theme! Quirky and zany in the best way. :)
WOW! This is my favorite I played so far. It's really simple and short but for some reason it was very enjoyable and satisfiying to play. Thank you for making this.
Funny, cute, short, and fun! Kind-of reminds me of firefighting simulator games? Very neat, wish you could turn off the music in-game.
