Stargazing: Genesis

The puzzles are too complex and the hints just feed you the answer instead of showing how the puzzle works, as a rusty lake fan I never really needed the hint system but every time I try to understand the hint here it made little to no sense. The story doesn't feel linear to go from 1 place to the next to show how it's connected. Wish to get my 3 hours back

tldr: steam users this aint the rusty lake, isoland, or even forgotton hills youre looking for, but its free and a nice gift. hey dev: thanks for the free game but dear god man how using the symbols on the petals and that somehow leads to a page in the book that you use to... work the calculator? when it asks who am i and you are wilson and wilson doesnt work but the petals... has the answer but the petals why... why would you think the diamonds showing left and right would equate to flicking the bird switches where they come out and flick it again why would those be the place that "hint" is for when theres another puzzle involving left and right buttons right next to it? and the bird flick switch things theres no feedback and way to ever know that anything would happen flicking them sequentially?! hey i know what i wrote above makes no sense. and yes i know you saw it coming a mile away, but just to make clear: my jumbled words mirrors my confusion because YOUR PUZZLES MAKE NO SENSE AND NEITHER DO THE HINTS OR SOLUTIONS. but again, thanks for the free game, i nailed the picross puzzle. also real talk, its a ♥♥♥♥ move to have it so key interactive items for puzzles cause no reac…

♥♥♥♥ - my girlfriend Beyond great visuals, and a grim atmosphere lies the illusion of Rusty Lake-like puzzles. Some puzzles are intuitive, some are weird, some can't be made sense of even with hints. The message of the game I understand, although I like it, it is much ado (3,5 hours for us) for nothing. If you are looking for something to scratch your head around and get nowhere then look no further, however if you like Rusty Lake's puzzles more, then this is definitely NOT for you. TL;DR Visuals 8/10 Atmosphere 7/10 Puzzles 3/10 Mechanic 4/10

Great game, but I'm at a loss to see what the message/point of it was.

Good, short P&C puzzle game.

Good game. A lot like the rusty lake games I've played. Idk what the player overlap between the two developers is, but anyone who likes either will probably enjoy both.
