I was a little bit confused even after reading the manual but I did successfully extract and send some material to SC Corp! Overall a cool entry - the audio particularly stood out. Nicely done!

Nice mood, but although I was able to send some material, I was confused what to do and when exactly which button worked. I liked the thematic graphics and the great sound.

A bit confusing at first, but after messing around with the buttons I managed to send a bunch of materials around. Really like the graphics and the story telling, I took me a while to realize that I was indeed Stuck In a Loop. Pretty fun overall!

I like a bit of a puzzle, so I figured out really fast in wich order the buttons had to be pressed. Sadly the game gets repetetive very fast, although the music and the great mood more than make up for it.

Really cool game! I got to the end screen - I liked the ending a lot :)

It is a bit confusing at first, but I think that works for the game (once you've read the mannual it is simple to figure out).

The music and sound effects are great - really sets the atmosphere.

Had some fun with this one, enjoyed the "cryptic" manual :)

Oh.. after some tinkering with controls I finally managed to fill full scientific contribution and capsule state. After that a new day began and I faced with that I should do the same operations and the same routine. It was boring, but I continued to do so and managed to fill all bars for 5 days in row, but I don't know if got closer to the ending. After that I decided to quit the game. The concept is good and I like somehow setting, but I didn't figure out how to get to the ending. (I also think that idea with the manual is good also)

Interesting concept, though it gets repetitive very fast. Also keyboard shortcuts would help a lot.

Is there an ending to struggle towards? Any hints on how to achieve it?

Thank you all for your feedback! @kuro @dmitry-mozgin as you mentioned the boring activities, a hint: at some points or with some statements the system wants you to stay in the loop, one could look for a way to resist and escape it :)

very attractive design and elaboration of colors!

This is an excellent job at establishing mood. I really felt like a serial number.

Good game, finally got it to the end! :D

kuro 2020-10-17 04:23

@leora Ha! I finished it! Thx for the hint .) Interesting ending.

Very cool game! I really liked the music and the mood! Nice work!

It was fun whilst it lasted. I liked the simple but effective art style

Concept is very cool but the game is quite confusing
