I am enjoying my time here! Keep going guys!
Can I find your game also on indiexpo website? The channel is linked with them.
Loved the puzzle side of the game a lot. Made me think enough to care about what to give that poor alien. Graphics were great. Also liked the backstory at the beginning. That was a nice touch!
Great music choice too !
One of the drawbacks for me was the theme. I didn't really feel like I was keeping the poor alien alive but more helping him. I took my time fetching the furniture he needed to power-up its ship but never felt the rush of anything. Adding a timer of some type of countdown would have probably help on that side.
However, it was really a good experience! Good job!
Puzzle symbols & objects were clear enough, a bit harder to differentiate for the material ones. Can't think of why I would have a paint shower in the middle of my vehicle but who cares ^^. I think the symbols are randomly selected, got a lot of couches and wet but no use of the burning station in the back or so many other elements.
Good job !
Decorating the truck at the moment :D

Really great piece of work and effort indeed.
Congratulations!
