The game slowly reveals its objectives as you play.
You have to eventually get enough of the units to the end of the tower. Over the course of the game, you get new unit types and techs to improve their abilities.

I think you've built an amazing ambience here! I really like the combination of the filter, the echoey sounds and the distant but present humming of the electronics.
I'm going to give some specific critiques because I think you've got some really strong bones here! Please don't take this like I didn't like your entry!
One thing that I think needs to be worked on is just a bit more player feedback. It's really not clear when the answer is input. It's fine (and i think good!) that it's weird and mysterious, but I would go into the door and walk around and come out and see that it hadn't accept my true or false either way.
I also think that a little *ding!* when you get it correct would be good. Just something to help confirm.
Typically with escape rooms, the answer to the puzzle is in the room. I'm not sure if the formula here is good or not, but personally, I don't want to reverse interrogate someones identity from yes no answers in this setting. If we got a little bit more information about this Cano, or the setting really leant itself to being about Cano, I could see it working. Like, I don't have a reason to care about this character yet and questions like "Cano Likes Candy" don't imply that level of worldbuilding depth.
Put a door in the entrance! Why is there an invisible wall? Why can't I just leave? It's a small thing that destroys immersion in an ominous and creepy setting like this.
It wasn't clear that I needed to hit esc on the main screen. Not the biggest deal, but I did sit there for a few minutes waiting and hitting other buttons.
Thanks for joining! You've managed to create a really specific vibe and I'd like to see where this project goes!

I think we've got some similar interests! I also made a game with a very similar control scheme. I like how the claw feels to use. It should be a little clunky and unwieldy.
I don't think I got very far into the game based on the screenshots you've provided. I never figured out how to upgrade my hull, so I surfed around near the surface until I tried to explore a series of wrecks and died. There's a cool game in here, But I think it needs some work to help the player understand what's happening.
There's also some audio balancing issues.
Overall though, I think this is a really cool game! Thanks for submitting!
