Search for your lost mother as space pilot Meredith.
Uncover all the dirty secrets of the DISSOLVER company.
Rebel against the system by installing a repair upgrade to repair things instead of just dissolving them.
Bail out your junk eraser ship before the DISSOLVER year is over. After all, if you don't bail out your junk eraser ship, it will never tell you anything about what happened to your lost mother Elaina.
Decide who you will trust and rely on: your surrogate father, a loyal DISSOLVER engineer who has raised you ever since your mother went missing? Your actual father, a man you have never seen before? The rebels? The aliens? Can you even trust your own junk eraser ship?
Can you save the world by repairing things instead of destroying them?
Meredith: She grew up in the childcare unit of the DISSOLVER company. One day when Meredith was still a teenager her mother just didn't return from work. Determined to find out what happened to her mother, Meredith got her pilot license and is now about to board the junk eraser ship 3LS4, the very ship that returned without her mother Elaina.
3LS4: Junk eraser ship. Returned without its pilot Elaina after its last flight. Refuses to hand over Elaina’s pilot logs, since they are protected by the pilot association’s psychological safety agreements. Its particle dissolve projector is powered by a supermassive black hole at its core. If it could move on its own, it would be considered a weapon of mass destruction. Since it has been somewhat erratic ever since returning, it is scheduled for erasure.
Dexter: Meredith's surrogate dad. As a loyal DISSOLVER engineer he happened to be around when Meredith's mother vanished. He mentored and supported Meredith all the way through her studies, but he cannot approve of her boarding a ship about to explode. After all, that's what it did to his laptop when he tried to get Elaina's pilot logs out of junk eraser ship 3LS4.
3LM4R: A customer facing unit working on the DISSOLVER station. He strongly reminds Meredith of Elmar, the customer facing unit in the DISSOLVER kindergarten.
Mikhail: The top mechanic and inventor of the rebels – that is, after Elaina left. He still knows how to install, use and upgrade her most important invention: the repair particle projector.
Chen: Young tractor ship pilot and rebel. Since his home planet got destroyed by a junk eraser ship crashing into it, he was partially raised by Mikhail.
Naaib: The leader of the rebels. He refuses to tell you anything before you have proved your merit.
XorX: Alien tractor ship pilot. He doesn't seem to be very sociable. Maybe that's just because he's an Alien. Maybe.

Reviews
Not the 5 hours developer promised but I enjoyed most of the time I played. There are some questionable game design choices, like [spoiler] disabling repair particles altogether if your inventory is full, [/spoiler] existence of "Take a walk" button, some "endings", etc. I mostly enjoyed the novel part, but the ending was so brief I was stunned. Gameplay is repetitve in nature but the game finishes fast enough for it to not be an issue. I felt like there's only 1 useful upgrade out of not so many though I haven't tried hard mode, perhaps the situation is different here. Game is probably inspired by Flash titles and brings back both nostalgia and worse than possible default controls. Overall a good game and not that far from being a perfect choice to occupy yourself for an evening.
Entertaining game with a unique control idea. The gameplay itself doesn't change too much between the levels (or repeats of them), but you get extra tools (and goals) that change it up a few times as you play, and the story was interesting and another reason to keep playing. Based on the number of possible endings I didn't unlock on my way to the best one,I must have either been lucky or there are more possible branching points than I realised!
