At the first playthrough, had no idea what I was doing and not much explanation was given, kind of expected that, so died within 5 min peacefully.

On the second Playthrough, ran out of energy (although had a few spare canisters), probably lasted 10 min. Still greatfull that the game didn't babysit me.

Third playthrough, once I got around selecting an all buff party, it went through the first 3 derelects like a breeze, without much risk of failure, I don't think.

If you get the creds rolling in early on, you can make it quite easily.

Thank goodness! I have enough games already that think torturing players is fun! ;-)

Great game so far. I don't have any helpful comments at present except: keep up the good work.
