Hi, could you possibly give me a hint for the flashing star puzzle, I've been stuck for ages and I would really like to see the ending, thank you!
Spoiler Warning: Click to reveal
Did you make the connection that the buttons on the machine are corresponding to the windows?
Each window matches the shape of a button on the machine (there are 4 flashing stars/windows total).
You will have to break one window to see the star behind it.
You will have to open the blinds in your ship to see one star.
You will have to move the statue arm to see another.
This is an extremely experimental “your own your own” sort of puzzle, so good job if you got any of it! You might need to draw a map of the windows.
Thanks for playing! (The ending is very silly, but I hope you enjoyed!)
More Spoilers
Ah! So at some point earlier you turned the power off, and need to turn it back on to use the machine :D
full answer: Turn the laser forcefield beams back on and you can use the machine :D Also, sorry for spoiling the rest of the puzzles here, but good job getting coins! :D
Thank you! I deleted my previous comment just in case it was a spoiler. The game is super cute, love the graphics and also the beginning has one of my favorite tropes (won't spoil). Great job!
I love the pixel art
Thank you, and thanks for playing!
Nice mags entry guys
