I felt like a hacker. Like a total badass astronout fixing the ship to stay alive. Space-MacGyver ;-)
I really like riddle games where you have to find out which input generates which output. It feels like solving a mystery. And your game fascinated me. Visuals and music is also great.
One question: Is there an ending? I quit the game after flying in one direction for ~5 minutes. I would be nice to have a target, which you need to reach in order to survive.
