I did things that seemed right, randomly picked up a wrench (didn't actually know I needed it), figured a vacuum is probably good to keep generators cool, hit \"Source of the problem\" with my wrench \u2026 :D I was happy to see that my guesses seemed to work and lead me to victory, but at the same time I feel like I just got a bit lucky there. Still, the atmosphere is quite interesting; with more mechanics, and a clear tutorial (e.g. splitting the game into several levels, where the first is a very simple ship with only a single generator, then adding more and more difficulties in the following levels) this could potentially be as fun as Keep talking and nobody explodes \u2013 a 2-player co-op would have a world of possibilities!
