Houston, we have a problem! by Egor


Take your role as an engineer in NASA Mission Control Center during Apollo 13 spaceflight. Do your best with hints, in order to help the ship to reach desired goal.
HOWTO: In case of emergency make sure to send your guesses for fixes, using console provided. "Modules" and "Emergency" lists are scrollable.
P.S. Special thanks to BlackAngel for help in developing this game.

"Maybe it could be better with less of text" yeah.. had the same feeling during development, but still that was the required evil to maintain the tension.
Thank) I'm glad you like it!)
Nice idea, a little repetitive tbh, but good non the less
I would love to have heard some space ambiant sounds :)
Anyways I liked the game a lot. I've typed 'covfefe' instead of 'coffe' more times than Trump and completely enjoyed this experience.
As for few things I missed:
- music
- radio sounds and voice coverage, that would make this game really good
- actual Deep Space Kraken
Anyways keep up the good work!
I loved to refill the Coffee Machine during space expedition :smile:
I would recommend making scroll faster, since it took ages to scroll through the right panel (under "Sabotage" button).
