Me And The Robot
"Emergency Commander on an interstellar flight is the best job in the world," they said. "You'll never get called into action. You'll just sleep for 12 years.“
Sounds great? Sure. Until there is an emergency. And then there is just you … and the robot.

This was another fantastic game! I wasn't expecting the ending at first, but after reading comments so that I could find what I was missing at points, that lead me to think that maybe all wasn't as it seems lmao
Loved it!
I was not expecting that ending! Like Whatttttt!! plot twist. Awesome game
Thank you.
And good to see that there are still new peple playing this game.
This is an excellent point'n'click of very high production value!
Looking forward to playing more of your games!
Great game! I really enjoyed it! :D
Well, that's... eh... an easteregg? A well-hidden special achievement? Space-time anomaly? ;-)
Ok, it's a bug. But congratulations anyway. I don't think anyone else came that far... :o)
that is actually one of the first thing that I did but it was a complete accident
Nice game! Love it!
Nice to hear that. Thank you.
An interesting game. We had a lot of fun playing it. Loved the retro vibes.
Thanks a lot. Haven't watched the video yet, but will definitely do.
Very well drawn game, also the voices, sounds and music are great, nostalgic gameplay with up-to-date style and technology, Overall, a very nice point&click game!
Thank you for your kind words.
Heyyo! I made a walkthrough for people who got stucked! ^^
Good job Argonauts!! I LOVE the storyline!
Thank you for the video and the nice comment.
We leave the interpretation of the story to our players... ;-)
Nice! ;)
Thank you again for making this game (=^・ω・^=)
Moral of the story: BUGS can be everywhere.
Even on... Argh! they're on my screen! Go away! Go away! AAAARRRGGHHHH!!!!
(Well done Argonauts... well done...)
After all, it HAS a moral. Even if it's buggy... ;-)
Thank you for your comment.
Thank you for your kind review - and for the video of course.
It was interesting to see someone playing most of the game without using the right mouse button to inspect. Looking at things would have made some things clearer and probably easier to understand.
But you did get the story and we're glad you liked it.
Great game, both the concept and the execution. Very atmospheric, thanks to the music which fits perfectly.
I liked the ambiguity in the end BTW :)
Thank you for your kind words. Glad you liked it.
