I am stuck, thus I need hints, I know it's brand new but maybe author or somebody who got further will help, help with any of these will be appreciated:
Spoiler
I got the mouse trap and loaded it up with cheese, but where do I need to use it, I think I'll need the mouse for the cat in the casino...or something
(these next hidden questions don't have any real spoilers I think, but still i put them up just to be polite)
In the casino:
Spoiler
The cat in the casino keeps making me lose my bet, and I think this is the only way I can get some starbucks
Engine room
Spoiler
I want that key, do I even need it yet?
Medical bay
Spoiler
where can I find the code for the medicine locker, I hope it's not somethign the doctor said cause he's in drunken sleep
trap
Spoiler
go back to your room and put it on the floor, right in front of the mouse hole ("dirty, cool floor")
For the rest: I just started the game and am a bit behind you :-)

Talk to him again - he will tell you ;)
What am I supposed to do to get my card-number? I tried it with the number
Spoiler
from the computer-list but failed : - \
Ah, thanks.

Aah, well I got upgraded right away (by accident actually so I didn't even think of visiting the lower deck
Spoiler
(there seems to be "bug" thing where now I actually got from 1st to 3rd (then somehow to 1st again) and now to 2nd class)

The thing is I've tried
Spoiler
the number 206 (in roman numerals CCVI)
but it doesn't work ???
@anian:
Did you
Spoiler
use the shift-button, when typing the big letters?
Hopefully there isn't a bug in the upgrading-scene, because I have been told to be upgraded, but got no new card and the old one didn't change
Spoiler
after I gave them the "special soup"
and I have no save-game before that point to repeat it :P

Well there's now 3 way to get upgraded, and you need the 2nd class room for at least one item, I think I didn't find anything in the 3rd class, you can try 2nd deck for all doors then upgrade again by
Spoiler
getting the ring from the pool
and then get another card.
Thank you - I already gave up and quit.
After your post I tried again and believe it or not (I tried already all doors with my "old" card before quitting, but no chance)
This time I simply went through the (closed!) door - so there is a bug for sure, but I can go on a bit now ;D
Edit: Same thing on the third floor ::)
(but I found something there) ;)
Uff, stuck again in the casino
Spoiler
I got the pills and I think I'm to use them on the cat in the casino, but it says that how is he suppose to make the cat eat...I tried the beef in the kitchen but no go
not sure what will happen when that's done, but it seems it's what keeping me stuck.
You should have another look in ...
Spoiler
... the fridge, but very thoroughly.
Door clipping errors! How embarrassing.
My sincere apologies for any hardships faced.
To get from your second class suite to your first class suite, you must
Spoiler
first gain, then remit your Star Alliance rewards points
I just did a check and you should receive the card if handled correctly. I'll need more information to see where your experience went off-the-rails.
I didn't get a new card - sorry.
I'm off to work now, but when I am back home,
I'll sent you a PM about how it happened and what I did in detail (http://emoticoner.com/files/emoticons/smileys/see-ya-smiley.gif?1292867669)
EDIT:
(http://emoticoner.com/files/emoticons/smileys/check-email-smiley.gif?1292867567) PM is on it's way!
I'm kinda stuck with no real clue as to what to do next.
Spoiler
I have the "Tiny Key", and know the password.
I've mended my spacesuit at the tailor.
i have a shitload of inventory items, some are unused, some are probably duplicates (stuff i've used and lost and then picked up again.)
Still havn't found a use for the Detergent, the magazine, or the colacan.
Can't figure out how to get to the bridge.
Can't figure out how to get into the locked door beside the robots.
so a small hint on where to go next would be nice ;D
No problem. Spoilers scale in subtlety below.
Spoiler
The AI is preventing you from getting to the bridge. You must repair the AI first before getting to the bridge.
Spoiler
The AI mainframe is located on the Engineering floor.
Spoiler
Looks like you have to go for a spacewalk.
Spoiler
The detergent, magazine and cola-can have no use.
Thank you :)
finished it now. Nice game for being your first one.
I am having trouble figuring out how to win the game in the casino. There is also a bug in the game that causes the game to crash when you try to use the credit at the casino that you get from turning in the ring from the pool.
Thanks,
Michael
Hm. Thanks for pointing out that issue. I'm going to take a wild leap here and guess that you
Spoiler
were only able to enter the casino because you wore the tuxedo you got from the receipt from the first class suite that you got into because of a door clipping issue, rather than actually receiving the first class suite key?
If that is true, that explains the error. If not, I'd be grateful if you could PM me some details about what, specifically, you mean by
Spoiler
try to use the credit at the casino
.
Oh, and regarding how to win the game. Spoilers scale in subtlety below.
Spoiler
You need to rig the game.
Spoiler
You need to kill the cat.
Spoiler
You need to use pentobarbital to kill the cat.
Spoiler
You need to entice the cat to eat the pentobarbital.
Spoiler
Go to the doctor. Talk to him until he falls asleep. Listen to what he murmurs in his sleep. Take his sick bay card. Unlock the sick bay card. Go to the medicine cabinet. Open it using combination CCVI. Take the drugs. Go to the kitchen. Open the fridge. Take the tuna. Combine the drugs with the tuna. Administer to the cat.
Yes, you are right I did use the door clipping error to get into the two doors. Thanks for your help with the casino.
Michael
I need a hint about how to get the tiny key.
Thanks,
Michael

Here's the hint in stages, each one offers more obvious solution:
Spoiler
there's a book in the library that might offer some hint
Spoiler
it's a tiny metal key
Spoiler
you need a magnet to get it, you have info on what you need in the physics book you can get in the library
Okay, I think I have an idea about how to make the magnet. I think you use the battery to charge some metal object like the water pipe or knife but I can't figure out where to get the wires to attach the battery to something.

First of all, use the hide tags when you write stuff with solutions, so you don't spoil it for others.
Secondly, I'll awnser with sort of a riddle:
Spoiler
it's ebony and ivory that hit the strings you need - look it even kind of rhymes ;D
I need help getting into the casino. If that involves getting a suit, some hints towards that would be great!
If you haven't been in ...
Spoiler
the first-class-room on third floor, it's impossible.
Therefor you should try to ...
Spoiler
upgrade your room.
Thanks Tabata. How might I go about upgrading my room? I've already... erm ... well, I don't know how to format spoilers, so I'll avoid saying too much. I've given something to the concierge, but it hasn't gotten me an upgrade, only casino credit.
first hint: try "hide" instead of "spoiler" ;)
second hint
Spoiler
Maybe you find something you can complain about
a bit more?
Spoiler
For example bad food served in the restaurant would be an argument
That was all I needed. Thanks!

Hey, still a problem with:
Spoiler
Getting into the casino. I gave the mouse soup to the concierge and I got credit for the casino. But I can't get the room upgrade.
Hey,
Little bit stuck. I can't seem to use the lever
Spoiler
(communications antennae) which I've stuck into the hull breach.
I'm assuming this is how to bypass the heavy partition?
Could I trouble someone to give me a pointer, please?
Also: can anyone else not open the final two pages of the hint book?
Cheers,
QW
Spoiler
Use the solenoid on the debris and wedge the part under the pole
@ Corto:
If you already ...
Spoiler
complained about your room and the restaurant and got your casino-credit ...
...without any upgrading, did you also give the concierge the ...
Spoiler
ring you found?
If so, I don't know another way to get it correct, but ...
Spoiler
... maybe the bug is still active and you are able to simply go through the door ;)
@ QW:

@sthomannch - thanks!
Thanks Tabata,

just gotta find this ring.
I'm liking the game a lot so far!

On that point…
Spoiler
How do you gain points? I found the card, but it has 0 points. I can't figure out how to get any.
And on the second-floor room:
Spoiler
Is it possible to enter the bathroom, or is the open door a red herring?
Thanks!
Well, I did it by ...
Spoiler
my own.
(a bit more?)
Spoiler
Think about a way to to lure away the concierge from that computer.
about second-floor:
Spoiler
I was able to go in (no extra view), but couldn't do anything from/in there.

Thanks, but I had already guessed that was the way to solve. However,
Spoiler
I don't know where to play the recording of the fire alarm to get the concierge's attention. The main character says "not here" everywhere I try to play it. Where should I do it?
You can place it in ...
Spoiler
the fitness-room.

the piano
But it tells me

that I gave up piano when I discovered girls
How do you

get the strings
...?
Okay, I'm pretty well stuck.
Spoiler
Made a solenoid - got a metal key - it doesn't seem to open anything.
Can a casino credit - can't get into the casino
Where is the ring? EDIT - found it
Where is the rewards card?
- Cogliostro

My luck stays true to form. Post a request for help, within two minutes, find the solution myself.

SHADOW
Well, that worked. I'm at a fairly final sequence
Spoiler
where I have to flip levers for 3 fuel cells
I am completely stuck here. Any clues? I've tried mapping out
Spoiler
which lever controls which set of lights
but I'm getting nowhere.
Edit:
Ok, never mind that...I finished the game :)
Thanks
SHADOW
OK maybe I am stupid or have hit a bug but I can't move beyond the repair shop with the partition and elevator. I can't find a way to get the power on to the elevator or fix my suit so I can go thru the partition. There is what seems to be a power room but there are no hot spots in it. So where do I go from here?
Sometimes you don't need to call the electrician for solving problems like this.
Spoiler
Did you see those panel at the wall? You should find a way to open it.

Spoiler
I've tried the screwdriver on everything and it doesn't work. There are no other tools around. Is there another panel I am misssing?
If you stand in front of the door ..
Spoiler
from the room without any hotspots, watch to the right to find a loose pannel at the wall (near to the other door).
I'm having a hard time figuring out the correct power distribution on the last puzzle. It seems that...
Spoiler
...I need to maintain all life support systems powered up (air, cabin pressure, heat shields) + the undamaged thruster (starboard). Is that a correct conclusion?
After that, do I have to...
Spoiler
...ask the AI to reroute the trajectory through dialogue options?
If not, what should be done?
[EDIT]
I had the note maximized...
Spoiler
... and covering the instruments panel, before I could see there were hotspots for the controls.
I'm now figuring I must maintain on: life support (air supply, cabin pressure, heat shields), starboard thruster, bridge controls.
[EDIT2]
Dumb me. Optimizing power cells is not required!
Spoiler
For some reason I was trying to leave switched off all unnecessary systems, but that's not part of the puzzle. So, as long as you leave life support on + thruster + controls, it doesn't matter if other stuff is on or off.
Anyway, I have now managed to partially correct the trajectory of the ship, but the starboard thruster control is now broken.
[EDIT3]
Finished it! Just needed a bit more speed.
Thank you for developing it KodiakBehr. It was very, very entertaining! ;)
I never did figure out how to get the upgrade from 3rd to 2nd class the right way.
Spoiler
I did do the mouse soup thing, but I couldn't figure out where the find the ring. I looked in the pool but didn't see anything other than pool. I eventually just used the door clipping glitch to get in the 2nd class room ad then got 1st class the right way. Can anyone tell me how I was supposed to get the ring to show up?
On another note, I'm now on the last part of the game, trying to figure the light puzzle. Can anyone give me some tips on that? Was never good at the light all lights up puzzles. Too impatient.
On the first upgrade --
Spoiler
Ring was in the pool. Gotta drain it first. It's small, but it's definitely there.
On the light puzzle --
CLUE ONE:
Spoiler
Lights have two meanings. On/Off, and Left/Right.
CLUE TWO:
Spoiler
Ever see Plinko on The Price Is Right?
CLUE THREE:
Spoiler
If the "Plinko Chip" passes left the first time, the second time it will pass right, and vice versa.
CLUE FOUR:
Spoiler
Screw it. Just fiddle with the thing until it works out. It's easy to stumble upon and you can't die.
Thanks for playing. I can say with certainty that the standards are
much improved in my next game!
How were you supposed to
Spoiler
drain the pool?
Spoiler
examine the wall to the right of the pool
