On the terminal is a microphone and a note that says "AT TOGGLE POKER CANNON WITH COMMANDER TO BACK CHANGE SOON MODES" which I assume has something to do with the cantina, but I don't know how to progress from here. --[[User:BrightBlackHole|BrightBlackHole]] ([[User talk:BrightBlackHole|talk]]) 21:22, 8 February 2022 (UTC) |
| − | On the terminal is a MICROPHONE and a note that says "AT TOGGLE POKER CANNON WITH COMMANDER TO BACK CHANGE SOON MODES" which I assume has something to do with the cantina. If you PRESS BUTTON, you will be prompted to "DISPENSE?", but entering a command will cancel the prompt. I don't know how to progress from here, if anyone has made further progress please post further information --[[User:BrightBlackHole|BrightBlackHole]] ([[User talk:BrightBlackHole|talk]]) 21:22, 8 February 2022 (UTC) | |

| | I'm fairly sure that the maze is a reference to Nethack, a roguelike dungeon crawler. The Invocation Ritual, a step of proceeding towards the endgame, involves a bell, a candle, and a book, so this seems like a pretty deliberate reference. https://nethackwiki.com/wiki/Invocation_ritual [[Special:Contributions/162.158.89.156|162.158.89.156]] 13:25, 28 September 2021 (UTC) | | I'm fairly sure that the maze is a reference to Nethack, a roguelike dungeon crawler.

| − | After you PRESS BUTTON, if you respond "YES" it will dispense an item which you will find is an EVA suit, now in your inventory. After you exit you'll get the code "GRILLEDCHEESEWITHBACON".
| |
| − | Afterwards you can return to the lift, wear the EVA suit and go to the orange floor. There you find a corridor with a tear in it, can't figure out yet what to do there... [[User:Boefjim|Boefjim]] ([[User talk:Boefjim|talk]]) 09:45, 17 February 2022 (UTC)

| |
| − | Done some further investigation, the note says to switch the goo cannon, so after WEAR EVA SUIT in the lift and going to the orange floor, you should TOGGLE GOO CANNON and FIRE GOO CANNON which fixes the tear.
| |
| − | You can then continue to SYSTEM DEFENSE where you PUSH SKELETON with a note called "THE OMEGA CODE", reading it seems to kill you in most situations so far. You can then PRESS BUTTON to active point defense. Leaving the orange floor will give you the code "KAREAGEDON" you can then safely go up to the red floor and FIRE GOO CANNON to kill the alien, which will give you the save code "PEIKINGRAVIOLI ".
| |
| − | On the red floor you can SIT ON COUCH and PRESS BUTTON to toggle shields, seems to have no influence as long as the system defense is also on. EXAMINE COUCH however says that the couch is lumpy and uncomfortable. I am suspecting there is some way to get an item from the couch but no idea what command to send to do so.

| − | Huh, you can SEARCH COUCH and you find a metal cube! It is "A DULL METAL CUBE WITH MARKINGS THAT READ STAYALIVE IFF TRANSPONDER MODEL 3235 DASH B". IFF here is presumably https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Identify_friend_or_foe ... so it will probably stop something else from attempting to kill you?

| − | Speculation: if you turn off the shields while the system defense is on, it will eventually be safe(r) to leave the station in the shuttle, if you have the IFF transponder (because you won't bump into the shields, and the transponder will stop the system defense from shooting you). Maybe. Some current remaining mysteries:
| |
| − | (1) Could you do anything else in engineering apart from getting the EVA suit? Is there a way to break the safety glass? Is there a way to speak into the microphone? Once you've left engineering, you can't come back again (because you get dizzy but no longer have any pills).
| |
| − | (2) If you go back to your room (green level), it says that it's so white that you can't see anything. Is there a way to make it less white so that you potentially could see some object?
| |
| − | (3) Still wondering about the left escape pod door and/or the voice control for the shuttle on the brown level.
| |
| − | (4) What's the deal with finding an intact envelope?
| |
| − | (5) What's the deal with the pool of water in the laboratory and the laboratory notebook?
| |
| − | (6) Where can we usefully use the omega code, large blue laser, or rubber ball? They all seem pretty destructive in most contexts... [[User:Schoen|Schoen]] ([[User talk:Schoen|talk]]) 05:12, 5 April 2022 (UTC)

| − | OK, I got something else (which may constitute victory!). From PEIKINGRAVIOLI, you can SIT ON COUCH, SEARCH COUCH, PRESS BUTTON (disabling the shields). If you then go back to your room (green level), you can GET WHITE ENVELOPE (you have to guess that it is there, since you can't see it). Then you can go to the shuttle bay (brown level), get in the shuttle, and READ ENVELOPE to the computer. You can then PRESS BUTTON and it then attempts to take you back through space to return your rented movie, and you escape from the station. (The cube from the couch on the red level is necessary in order not to be viewed as hostile while making your escape.) As we haven't apparently used the laser, omega code, rubber ball, or puddle, I wonder if there's more game content or subplots still to be found.

| − | It seems that the comic is no longer interactive. It's been replaced by a GIF that simply alternates between checked and unchecked. The comic.js and morse.js files are still requested by the comic page, but return 404 errors. [[Special:Contributions/172.69.68.20|172.69.68.20]] 16:23, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
