Liking this game's visual aesthetic and writing a fair bit! Being an absolute loser for reading manuals, I found this game an interesting play. Trying to decipher terrible manuals and succeeding brings me far more joy than it should, and this game contributed nicely to that sweet feeling. The graphics overall are very nice, and I liked the background music and sound design as well. Got crushed to death pressing random buttons the first time and survived for so long following the manual the second time that I just had to close out the game. :P Nice work!

How does your game fit the theme?
Managing the gauges can get out of control easily. Instructions are laid out in a way is hard to understand, making it hard to control. When a gauge runs really low, certain elements block the screen, making elements harder to see / manipulate.
