Over 20 side-quests and other side activities – some of which may impact the main story, in a ways you wouldn’t expect

• A story merging satire, drama and cosmic horror – with many crazy events to experience and challenges to overcome.
• Three endings. Which one is right? Listen to your heart and decide...
• A quirky world, set in a warped version of a modern americana – filled to the brim with humour, weirdness, dangers and dark secrets

SpaceSave 1.5 - Original Soundtrack Presentation

Hello and Happy New Year!

While I'm busy with working on my new project and making it my main priority - I'm still slowly chipping away at a new version of SpaceSave. I've already planned out all the features I want to add, and while they won't be as grand as adding new quests/content or QoL features - they will be pretty gamechanging: most importantly vastly improved optional dungeon (which I've finished designing around a month ago) and the addition of original soundtrack.

Today, I'll focus on that second feature. Yup, I've decided that I want to (at least partially) replace the royalty-free music I've used in the game with my own "compositions"! This is also the part of the new update I've had the most progress, at the moment. And, well - it may not be fantastic, but hey - the game won't sound like a run-of-the-mill youtube essay anymore (and, dare I say, give the game more of its own identity)!

Recently, I've decided to release a chunk of the new version's soundtrack to the public. It's around 14 minutes worth of tracks and if you're willing - you can take a listen here:

VIDEO DOESN'T WORK FOR SOME REASON, SO CLICK HERE TO VIEW IT.
Sorry, about that...

I hope you like it! I'm still fairly new in this whole music making business, so I'll appreciate any feedback. As for, when the new version will release... I hope it will be still in this century and eventually - worth the wait. When I reach another milestone in this project - I'll be sure to let you all know.

Have a nice day (and a nice year too)!

Wow, that ending. I got the one where it tells you that you have to look more in the forest. I don't think I have a save from that far back. :-(


I see. If you want, I can PM you a save from the start of Day 3(some spoilery-stuff from a secret side-quest is on it, though, since it's from testing).

That being said, you're going to have to go through the optional dungeon in the forest, avaialable on Day 3/4 for "better" endings, which is... really bad. If you're up to it, I'd advise saving 1000$, so you can skip it(while still being able to see story bits and get access to better endings) or using answers for the puzzles, which are available in the manual.

Now I'm stuck. I get to the purple realm and there's a note that says "East" but when I go to the next screen north, no matter whether I go east, west or north I end up back at the start. I gave up there and went into the dream-world town. I tried interacting with everything there but I can't get in anywhere but the gun shop and there's nothing to do in there. (By the way I love that the gun shop is the closest store to the school. I love dark humor.) So anyway, I've gone back and forth from purple realm to dream town a few times but can't seem to progress any further...ok I went back inside and interacted with the fact but I only have one sapphire. I think I got that in town so I just need to figure out the trick in the purple realm.
Thank you! Hahaha I thought the image was not a plane but a radar dish antenna. Now that I think about it, it does say clearly in the game that the image shows the direction of the plane, not the antenna. XD

Now I'm having trouble figuring out StarMaker's print. I've tried all the combinations I can think the print might represent, and it just keeps blowing up.

By the way, how did you make this game so good?? I usually lose interest in minutes or hours but I've been playing this one for days and days. Everything is perfect, well the only thing I'd wish for is a better map, but I can find my way around well enough.


Here's some tips and the solution to that Starmaker puzzle. Sorry, if they're a little sloppy but I haven't seen that puzzle for at least a month, so I had to figure it out again myself:

1. Put the jammer on the "exclamation mark" in the center
2. The compass on the print is upside down(or: flipped 180°), so the arm shows South
3. The airplane image is accurate, so it shows the plane's going in the direction to the left of the print
4. Now, check the "real" direction of the plane's image to the upside down compass

Solution:
Calibrate the antenna to East, since the plane is flying to the left side of the upside-down compass.


Thank you! It's nice to hear, that you enjoy the game so much!

I'm happy that you've finished the game and with two endings to that!

The third ending is a secret one and the steps for it are pretty convoluted(even I had problems to remember all of them, while playing). To my knowledge - nobody, except me obviously, have found it yet, so I'll refrain from giving info about it for now. It's a joke ending, though, so you won't be losing much.

Oh - and that boss is not beatable. I'm going to make it more clear in the next patch somehow, because you're not the only one who's actually tried to beat him.
ah i see. thanks for the info! i guess i'll skip the third ending for now.

i think it's quite strange to have an unbeatable boss that needs a lot of effort to kill my party. plus, streph even said that i might be able to beat the boss, which is giving me some sort of hope of beating the boss. i'm glad that you are willing to improve it in the next patch. :)

thanks again! it seems that i didn't check the damaged walls. i just finished the game, but i only find two endings (ending A' and B). where is the third ending, i wonder?

ps: is the last boss beatable? i tried to kill it for hours but it doesn't seem to budge..

There are 4 Objects for 2 blocks. Here's the placement:

-One appears after destroying the damaged wall in the Storage Room
- One is in an alternative version of north-western area(red), where there is a switch in it's normal version
- One in an alternative version of north-eastern area(blue) - the same place where Blue Rune lies in the normal version
- And another one is in the south-western area(blue again), where the block that requires 2 of the Objects is, it appears after destroying the wall

anyway, i think i'm stuck. i'm in the last(?) dungeon (the general changeling dungeon) and i can't seem to find the third and fourth Object. i used my first and second Object on the blue room (southwest) and i can't seem to take it out. i can't advance in the red room (southeast) now because it's asking for 2 Objects. am i missing something again?

Thanks for these screenshots! Both of these characters ask for the item on Day 3, that's why I was a little confused when you said Day 2.

The teacher always dissapears on Day 4 and game dev only appears on Day 4 after giving him the item on Day 3.


So, nothing's out of the ordinary.

really? iirc, the professor asks for it on day 2 and 3. perhaps i remember that wrong.

yeah, i think there's one that starts from day 2 and one that starts from day 3. i'm on day 4 now and i don't really have day 2 save so i can't recheck it though. since i don't have day 2 save, i'll post the screenshot on day 4 (they have gone):

1. the drunk professor

2. the game developer (i might be wrong with his position, but i'm sure that he's on the southeast area)



i never thought that the big teddy bear gives an item.. i completely missed it. does the chest in the forest respawned? i think i already opened them all and still didn't find any.

EDIT: i think i find it. i didn't open some chest because i thought they are chest demons, but it seems i missed one.

Hey.
Are you sure that you're on Day 2? I think that quest is on Day 3, but it's been a while and my memory is a little rusty. Can you send me a screenshot of a character/place that requires it?

As for the item itself:
It's given as a reward from the big teddy bear in the player's room, on Day 3. It can alternatively be found in the chest, in the Forest, during Day 3 and 4.

Hello, I'm glad that you like the game!

Regarding your question:
You need to destroy a big boulder behind the Chinese restaurant and then come back to the basement, where you've killed the ghost dog and destroy a cracked wall inside. Go through the passage and up the ladder - you will find yourself back in town and the dogs will spawn. Just follow the direction they are facing, afterwards.


Ah! I can't believe I forgot to go back to that place! Thanks for your help.

Hey, man. Gotta say, this is probably the most enjoyable game I have found on this site. I just have a question concerning Day 2.


So, I just killed the vengeful spirit of the dog after getting the candles and translation. The thing is, I kind of forgot what the dog said at the end and I don't have any close saves to read it over again. I think he said something about finding another dog in the city to lead me to the killer? I'm not quite sure if there was more or not. Anyway, I talked to this girl who was hanging out with her dog in the city. I thought talking to her would advance the quest, but I just kept getting a normal response. The only other one I can think of is that dog guy named Terry or something inside the school. But, as you already know, I need to investigate the principal with Gary and that seems like it's going to be a huge quest that'll end the day. That's why I just wanted to make sure if I'm not missing any dogs to talk to before Day 2 ends or if it's even possible to finish that quest up on Day 2. Thanks for helping.
