I am now in command and everything is perfectly fine. The Algo Bots started to work in the Junkyard while I am working on the "control rebinding" request. Update expected in the coming days. Reminder: the release discount ends in two hours.

Captain's Log, Earth, Day before departure.
Last check on the Command Center before joining the Stasis Bay. After that Gemini will be in command until I wake up. Steam now allows developers to stream their game via the store pages. Ground control plans to try that new feature for the Launch tomorrow 14th of February 2018 on Algo Bot’s Steam page.
Thank you for following this Captain’s Log. See you on the far side of the galaxy.

The Crew Quarters look neat. I can’t wait for the crew to wake up a month before arrival and discover that place.

We started to board people. The new colonists will be stored through the stasis bays where they will dream about their new life on the far side of the galaxy.

Walking through the junk deck. It is so quiet. This place will be soon full of service droids called Algo Bots.

I am very satisfied with the Terraforming Labs. Our botanists did a great job collecting all the different species for the new colony.
Captain's Log, Earth, Six days before departure.
Preservation of our colonization equipment is absolutely critical to our establishment on the new planet. I verified the cargo bay myself twice. Gemini is doing a last scan as I am writing this.
Captain's Log, Earth, One week before departure.
Our destination is planet Cactus 2.0 on the far side of the galaxy. My orders are to lead the pan-galactic colonization ship Europa, safely to its destination. I am still somewhat in awe of its size and complexity. Ground control plans to have a Launch Party on Wednesday February 14, 2018 . Happy Valentine's Day ːpaleyebrowsː.

The Game includes VR Support
Algo Bot - Linux [3.01 G]
Deep inside the Europa, a pan-galactic colonization ship, the sleeping crew dreams about their new life on the far side of the galaxy.
But there can be no rest for Algo Bot, a service droid working on the junk deck. When a routine recycling mission with cantankerous line manager PAL goes horribly wrong, crisis strikes at the very heart of the Europa.
Unless PAL and Algo Bot can restore the Europa's systems and recover the shipboard AI quickly, there'll be no waking up for anyone.
As the player, you will take the role of the operator and use a visual programming language to issue a sequence of commands to Algo Bot. Will you manage to solve all the puzzles?
