Very good and original idea, extremely well executed. Just thought the progression gets really slow, so the game gets very repetitive halfway through, and I ended up abandoning even though I was very interested in where the story was going.

I think the progression is stalled by two major reasons. First, is the 15 minutes time limiter that completely breaks the pacing for no reason at all (I think it even goes against the story that the game is trying to tell. I would be very happy with my employer if I had 15 minutes working days). Secondly, is just the overall progression of equipments and ranks. I understand that dumping too much information to the player may be overwhelming, but in this case it's just too slow, and you end up repeating the same ships without much progress.
