VERY good loking game. I enjoyed figuring out what exactly I had to do, but I don't know if such indistinctness was intended. If it was - great job, really, very impressive.

Thanks @chertkov It is my first time using Blender to make assets for a game jam so yeah, I am glad it worked out okay!
I was aiming for more of a puzzle game than a feeding mechanic but with the time running out it became a bit of both so... let's say YES. It's intentional :D
Short but fun. I wasn't really sure what to do to fix it quite often, but I guess that's the idea! Fun little story.
I will say though that the jerkiness of the camera and the dark areas in the ship made it hard to find things sometimes.
Thanks @seriouslycrunchy and yeah... the cameras were a mess in the end :D I wanted fixed cameras but ran out of time to smooth them over.
So much effort in one game!!! But I haven't realized where I needed to place batteries.
I liked the puzzle of figuring out where everything went, and felt the modeling really made it easier or more fun to identify things. Pretty complete for a compo game. I wish the little dude had some funny movement animations. I'm not sure this expands to a full game, but I do think the idea could make its way into a larger game. Funny. The mouth on the engine was particularly neat.
Hi @aret24 ! Yes it's quite a puzzle to figure out the order of things. I tried to make the captain give hints too but it might be too obtuse in areas. There is a big blocky pipe thing at the very top of the room up a ramp... once the core is in place and shielded, it will open when you get near with a cell. The video walkthrough will show you if you are stuck :) Thanks for playing!
@thedashdude Thanks! I tried to make the pieces specific shapes to guide the player so that is cool it came across :D I would never dream of making this a full game :D Just a fun experiment for a jam. Thank you for the kind words and I am glad you enjoyed playing.
This was super fun! I loved how the captain would give you hints if you took too long doing something. I am really impressed, I only wish I could skip through the intro to play again a bit faster. I really hope the "Happy Cappy" enjoys his cookie in the end! A really solid game, well done!
Aahhh man! i thought i won the game, i assembled the entire room before i started filling the fuel cells for the first time, when i did i was told i was a true miracle worker and that we where heading to the infamous peace planet for some fun *tea time*, but then, nothing happened, the engine slowly started dying out on me and i was locked in my little engine room. with no more fuel cells and no more commands i tried tossing myself in as fuel with no consequences! haha.. i ended up hitting escape and was returned to the main screen and felt like i completed it, i was happy, but then i checked the video walk-through and realized i was only half ways.
But I did it! i fixed the ship to factory conditions, so i consider myself a miracle worker either way! I want to say... **First try!** but that would be wrong haha
Really enjoyed this game, the graphics where nice, audio was beautiful and you hit the theme pretty well! Nicely done!
Really cool game and i really like it. Try to lit up peaces
Thanks @andidebob ! I had "skip functionality" on my list of things to do.. but it was about 6 items past when I ran out of time :D
@kekkodude Glad you had such an emotional rollercoaster! I did have the plan to make it time out but again, barely scraped in on time so left that one to the drawing board.
Thanks @daniil-tcyvakin , They were not as easily spottable as I had hoped.
Cool game! The graphics area really nice as are the visual effects. The audio works really well too to create a mood just like being on a spaceship! The movement was pretty good, and the jump definitely came in handy. I would have liked the player to be a wee bit bigger though. The game felt polished to an extent also. I didn't manage to assemble much but I saw your video and realised I was overthinking it :). Great entry, and all the best!
Really nice, I did get a little confused with what to do every now and then but even so, overall this is really awesome~ solid entry :D
Thank you @emperor-eagle and @landerack for the feedback and kind words :)
Wow, very visually impressive game. The game play was a little minimal, but it was satisfying to reconstruct the beautiful ship interior. The game also had a good atmosphere and feel, and the lighting was better than any I've seen in the jam thus far. I was a little confused at first, particularly about the controls; I went half the game pushing the objects into place without realizing I could pick them up. Still, a very good entry!
Very impressive! The gameplay is engaging, the humor is good, and the engineer is a miracle worker. There is also a lot of expansion opportunity here, which is very cool if you decide to develop this further.
A very well presented game, the intro alone gets bonus points! I thought the music fit well but the gameplay was lacking, leaving the player to fumble around a little too much, highlights and button prompts for interactions would go a long way to improve this. Still, impressive for one person in 48 hours. Nice work!
really awesome game! I love the talking sound sfx :) I did use the help of the walkthrough at somepoints to help figure out what to do next at some points :D
Thank you everyone for the support and cool feedback!
@jonaspk Thank you! this was my first compo using blender so a lot more time was spent on making assets than gameplay and you are right, it shows :)
@david-knox Thank you! glad you enjoyed playing
@almax Button Prompts! yes of course :D I even did that in my last jam and should have thought of it here. Next time! :D
@avi Thank you and I am glad the walkthrough helped!
What a great set of comments to wake up to this morning. Thank you again everyone!

That is amazing ! So much work done in 48hours : A 3D game with story telling with intro and outro, a lot of interractive assets, and some audio effects that fit perfectly the game. The only drawback for me was the clarity of the gameplay, even though I assembled all the broken piece and put the fuel in place I was stuck with nothing more to do and nothing happened. Maybe you have to do it in a specific order like in the playtrough but if it's the case it's pretty hard to guess. Anyway one of the most impressive entry for me.
Thank you @polegar I do tend to throw a lot into LD :D
