Gentrieve 2 is a "Metroid"-style 3D action game featuring completely random & customizable worlds. The year is 3080. Mass Generators are creating everything, everywhere. However, thieves often steal Mass Generators in hopes of creating robot armies & fortresses. Thieves are terrible programmers, though, and their creations become uncontrollably hostile & fortresses wildly convoluted. It is your job to clear out these fortresses & return the faulty Mass Generators. Be warned, when the Mass Generator is taken offline, the fortress will soon implode!

Been playing today and overall I like it - but I do have a questionsthat doesn't seem to be answered somewhere.

What do some of the powerup thingies actually do? There is one that looks like 3 matchsticks, another that's 3 spanners. I think that spanner one might be a healing because I was full health already when I hit it so nothing happened. I couldn't see any stats change when I picked any of them up though. Is there actually a list of powerups and what they do anywhere?

By matchsticks and spanners,

I assume you mean this: I.imgur.com

And this: I.imgur.com

Those two arent powerups, instead they are recharge stations. One recharges weapons, the other recharges health. Though the weapon one seems to have a glitch in it, doesnt seem to always work.

If you look at the area map, you'll see that the recharge rooms have the same icons in them, so you can see just where they are once you've found them; you'll find more recharge rooms of both types as you progress. Wheras rooms that have actual items in them will display as a blank orb on the map screen, showing that you already got what was in there. All of the major powerups and stuff though will explain themselves once you pick them up, so it's pretty easy to get the hang of most of them. You'll get most of those from boss fights, but there's a couple that are found elsewhere.

Hope that helps!

Ok, that does make sense. All the weapons I've found so far seem to have infinite usages though so I'm not surprised I couldn't see the recharge working!
