Perfect gameplay loop. Is there a way to fix your ship?

Thank you! The ship can't be repaired, I thought it would make the player more careful to operate it.

The concept is creative and I liked the idea of driving your ship while investigating that was so cool! The graphics are also nice and I hope at some point you add some kind of a story and maybe enhance the terminals/computers somehow. Overall great!

Like everyone else said, I really feel like you nailed the atmosphere on this one. The gameplay loop was pretty fun as well, hope you turn it into something bigger :)

I like The atmosphere and the concept, but I'm stuck at the beginning. How are you supposed to know which part of the ship is broken? Also when I try to type in the part it doesn't allow me to write

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! The broken parts of the ship emit sparks and have different textures, it's mentioned in the first log message. It's strange that typing doesn't work... Try changing the language, also input is only available after selecting a field with the mouse. If that doesn't help, I will try to figure out the problem.
