I still occasionally misspell my name so I’m not exactly a paragon here XD

And in the final set of repairs under the timer for engine meltdown, I am getting stuck in a loop of “+ 30 Seconds” (which should perhaps be “+30 Seconds”, removing the extra space). The dialog box keeps on popping back up and preventing me from completing the current repair (but at least the engine will never meltdown?)
Edit: Ah, this seems to be the same bug reported by “Horride The Bunny” on the “topics” page up a level form this “Bugs/Typos” one.

I’m not sure that changing up the sequences for the locks every time constitutes a fair puzzle. Having to guess which sequence is being used at which time is hardly in the spirit of a “puzzle” and more in-line with a guessing game. Gollum raging at Bilbo for putting out the “riddle” “what have I got in my pocket?” is entirely justified for this reason. At that point, save-scumming to keep the RNG the same so that anything “logical” can be figured is not untoward.
That being said, the art is fantastic!
The slowest part of this game is putting the potions guidebook into a spreadsheet for quick reference XD That and not accidentally making hot pot out of a slow stew of a potion at the last moment and accidentally screwing it up 😅
The art is lovely! The mechanics are not a drag, there is actual danger of failing but not so much or so little that the game becomes unpleasant or boring. The fact that every decision has to be “intentionally made” (can’t just hold down “accept” and advance) means it’s much harder to accidentally screw up. Hands-down the best back-end not-glamorous feature. This game would be appreciably less enjoyable without it.
Edit: I keep watching that “last updated” information field because this is an enjoyable little game.
