Very nice prototype! I could totally enjoy a game like that

I couldn't solve any of the puzzles :( but I had a lot of fun! The art and the music art fantastic. <3

Ah, the puzzles in-game weren’t completed–details are in the text at the bottom of the game page at https://qusk2.itch.io/launch-void. Glad you still had fun!

Developer

Yes, I apologize for that.  Communication wasn't the best and we weren't given ample time to plot a good internal doc for the puzzles.  However, I believe the grid buttons are meant to be a type of matrix (prog never sent me the files to test), like so:

BMO is a FACKING fire musician, yes!  Though the main loop seemed a bit too major for what I believe was meant to be a gloomy aesthetic?  

I iterated over a placeholder and ideally, we could polish the screens to fit The End is Nigh (intended to mimic that sort of dark vibe), like so:

Entertaining and well made.

I like the graphics

Really like the point and click adventure design of this game. Audio design is also really nice. I spent a considerable amount of time trying to figure out the maintenance report and panel puzzle which seems pretty misleading.

Hey, thanks for the feedback!

I updated the page to clarify some things - we did not have enough time to finish the game and those puzzles you were trying to solve are impossible. I wrote more information about the puzzles in the description of the game page.
