Cataclysm on a Starship: The Setup in Glass Beads

In Glass Beads, an unexpected ultra-high-energy particle strike disrupts the routine of a massive starship on its way to an exoplanet. The ship's management AI, now bereft of mathematical knowledge, awakens two unqualified passengers, Yuko, a café clerk, and Kenji, a ramen-shop waiter. With navigation corrupted and nothing but a perplexing terminal offering nonsensical symbols, the duo faces an urgent task: restore the ship’s systems or risk losing themselves and their fellow passengers forever.

Proving Theorems: The Core Gameplay Experience

This puzzle-novel game uniquely challenges players to prove mathematical theorems that are fundamental yet deceptively complex. The AI's memory loss means players must reconstruct basic concepts from scratch, engaging in creative problem-solving. Designed to be accessed by anyone, from students to math enthusiasts, the step-by-step proofs, although seemingly simple, demand careful thought and meticulous application of logic.
