In this small game, you play as an electrical engineer, maybe? Anyway, you were getting ready for a big date in a rented tux when your boss orders you to get the new high-powered experimental safety net working so his joyriding boss flying the malfunctioning Dragonfly doesn't crash and go splat.

In this tiny minimalistic work that satisfies the premise of the speed-if in which it was entered, you play as someone in a walled quadrangle surrounded by all the items in the premise. An exit leads east.
