Gatemender (the "Warp-Gate Repair Arcade Game") is a game developed by Erik Letson for the inaugural December 2020 LibreJam. It is a top down arcade game where the player controls a ship trapped in the middle of an asteroid storm. The only path to freedom is a warp gate, which has already been damaged by the storm. Luckily the parts to fix it can be found by blasting the asteroids, allowing an eventual escape. The player has three lives to spend, and a new scene and gate is generated upon completing the last. Letson has since started work on the tactical role playing game Heart of Gold, though the project is now on hiatus.
