Lock the Signal is a retro-futurist sci-fi puzzle game set aboard a drifting spaceship. An old transmission begins to speak again from somewhere beyond the hull, and your only way to understand it is through a stubborn oscilloscope and a bank of unstable controls. Match amplitude, frequency, and phase to lock onto hidden signals, decode fragments of a mysterious message, and follow a beacon that may be calling you somewhere you were never meant to find.!

Simply brilliant! I really enjoyed the game! I especially liked how unexpected the idea was compared to other games. While in other games we mostly use signals in different tasks, here we change the physical parameters of signal itself.

Looks good - shame it's windows only and there's no other build. Good to put the OS/architecture on the zip file so folks know what it's compatible with.

The game looks really nice! The device you use to lock a signal is detailed and fun to use. Some additional sound effect would be good. And I didn't have enough time to read text.
