This is actually very cool and impressive. Very unique as well. The problem is that it does get repetitive after a while.

Wow, that’s a lot of content for a jam game! (Or maybe I’m just very bad at clicking a dot at the right time, which is why it took me a while to finish.)

Explaining the game while playing is always great. The overall theme/design/mood feel polished, unique and well-done. The sound effects really helped here!

I’m not sold on the minigame: at first, it seemed smart and fun, but then it gets repetitive. (Maybe one or two extra “twists” to it, near the end, would’ve been nice?)

Ya the original plan had another twist where the beam would drop in and out, but we ran out of time to implement that. Thank you for playing! We really do appreciate it.

Really fun puzzle game. I think it really cool how you took inspiration from IRL history and turned them into game mechanics. well done

I liked the idea of the entire game been played with the ship computer only, very nice! The music was very good as well and it's variations work very well with the moments of the game!

Very cool game! 😄

Definitely sells the idea of sending commands to a spaceship! I did not really like the synchronization minigame itself, but the mood definitely sold the game for me.

Well done!

Top notch presentation once again as we come to expect from you guys. A nice game over all it had me at the edge of my seat the whole time. Very well done.

Interesting take on the theme. When I started thought I could play on hard... change my mind but could probably have played on a little bit harder setting. Enjoyed the game and the helping Apollo 13 make it safely back to earth... going to try hardiest difficulty and see what happens

Great visual take on the theme, good work :)

I tried my best at the moving crew part but couldn't finish it, I'm too slow at reading and syncronizing to find the solution :P

Ooh, the visuals and sounds are very good!

The section with the whole moving crew from one module to another was a bit confusing at first, but I figured it out eventually! You delievered a great game as always!

I like the parts when there are critical situation happening during travelling to the moon, fortunately there is always enough time to set things back to normal. Good entry!

The atmosphere and authenticity is fantastic.  It was a little hard so I did not get through as much as I would have liked.  Great game though.

There's a slight bug where the voice goes "Launch aborted... holding... roger." continuously, and the play game button wasn't immediately obvious, nor was the core mechanic, perhaps due to the distractions of the filter, but it was overall quite enjoyable once figured out.

This is great! I love the retro theme!
