Really clever and well executed! The puzzles were just challenging enough. It took me a few minutes to get the second-to-last puzzle, but my newfound knowledge made the final puzzle cathartically quick to solve.
I'd be interested in a longer version, assuming the mechanics have more puzzle variety to offer.
Delete did not work for me :( on a Japanese keyboard. Game is very interesting, hope I am able to play a fixed version in the future Edit: nevermind i think maybe i did not think outside the box enough
I feel like if we joined forces we could have a very interesting game huh. I recently made a game which pulled on some similar elements in a well, very different way — well, you’ll see. (Game in question)
Absolute blast to explore around outside of the map in search of s e c r e t s. Kinda reminds me of those MUDDrpgs from back in the day that you had to type each action out for. 10/10, would play more like this. :)

Best Game Ever! Took me watching the tutorial/showcase to complete the 3 last puzzles, but I'm going to ply this again and again until I master, so I can be ready for when this becomes a full-on game. IT WAS PERFECT!

Feels like the ctrl+Z should be mentioned somewhere ingame, it took a while to figure out how to not be softlocked. Great game though.
The easter egg was comforting in a way, I explored it for a while
I'm hoping you were contacted or had some part in this -
Really cool game, thanks for making it!
(speedrun PB after a few tries on the span the last few weeks : )
It is masterpiece, thank you for making this game!
I immediately softlocked by typing left in the beginning 😳
Dark mode is an eternal addiction, you can never go back to bright mode, once you had it for long enough :)
Hahah same
Very well done!! Nice experience and execution

What an outrageously creative idea. Absolutely brilliant!
Thanks for this.
The thing is, I’m pretty rubbish at all games. And I’ve probably got myself into a deadlock here...
I’m not going to restart for the fifth time. But this is absolutely brilliant!
wonderful
The source code link is broken :(
that was peak
i just found the easter egg without even knowing there was one LOL
Saw 5 seconds of this game and had to try it, really compelling idea and awesome exploration of it!
Really original mechanics, very cool.
Dark theme: Good game!
Very beautiful and creative game!!! I enjoted it a lot.
I sign up to itch.io just to leave a comment.
What a neat concept, and a lovely game.
Well done!
ahh, yes. my favorite code "wwwwwwwwwwwwwwupwwwwwwwwright"
I enjoyed it a lot...
Awesome!!!
Delete did not work for me :( on a Japanese keyboard. Game is very interesting, hope I am able to play a fixed version in the future
Edit: nevermind i think maybe i did not think outside the box enough
Awesome game! Revived my interest in making games :)
Yo okay, very interesting!
I feel like if we joined forces we could have a very interesting game huh. I recently made a game which pulled on some similar elements in a well, very different way — well, you’ll see. (Game in question)
Curious of your own thoughts
Absolute blast to explore around outside of the map in search of s e c r e t s.

10/10, would play more like this. :)
This is incredibly creative!!
Fun puzzle! I made a script in AHKv2 to speed run it for no reason, in 3.4 seconds and 1081 moves!
In AutoHotkey V2:
Love how all the coders keep being cut off :
"ok its fine what did i do last time to leave....A I KNOW I JUST HA {WAKE UP!}"
"okay lets see still nothing oh wait i just remembe {WAKE UP!}"
"SWOOOOOO wait wha {WAKE UP!}"
"Please return I belive okay they probably can't see it now oh w {WAKEUP!!!!}"
Amazing game, took me a long time to solve two of the later puzzles, but then I blew right through the last one after having gained my knowledge!
wow this was amazing!
that was fun! Got stuck on the puzzle before the last one but got it in 50mins
Saw the youtube video, stopped it in the middle because I knew I had to play it
Same
Very impressive game!!
Best Game Ever! Took me watching the tutorial/showcase to complete the 3 last puzzles, but I'm going to ply this again and again until I master, so I can be ready for when this becomes a full-on game. IT WAS PERFECT!
Fun demo!
insanely good mechanics, very very fun, and the atmosphere is incredible!! 32:48 with 3768 characters
Its brilliant! Needs to be a full game!
wow, this is really really good
Got stuck on the house puzzle >:(
This breaks my brain lol. I blame Rust which has always been my mortal enemy.
