Hey, I was wondering if I can showcase your game in a youtube video because it scored #1 Overall? You will be credit however you like, just reply with your social media or something else.

Hi,

No problem :)

No need to credit me beyond linking to the game, I am not on any social network or anything anyway.

What a creative and insanely clever game! Your use of text was so creative that I ended up forgetting it was the limitation at all.

The mix of music and sound effects along with the surreal environment of the visuals really just added to the great aesthetic that made the game all the more enjoyable, although I noticed that the music only came through the left side of my headphones, which was slightly distracting.

It's so hard to pick a favorite puzzle out of these as they were all so clever, but the one that had you going through wiki links to find the letter really stood out to me as well as the zoom one.

Great job!

Some clever puzzles. I admit I was almost giving up on the game on the first level, as I did not understand the clue at all.

But, after realising it was related to the game's title, things got (a little) easier.

The puzzle I liked the most was the fox one!

Very very good use of text to make puzzles that relied on finding letters, and at the same time using text to make scenarios that you even forget are made of text. The most unique game on the jam!

Congratulations!

This is super cool! Some of these puzzles are really creative. I really liked the quick brown fox one and the 3d tilt effect on the maze one looked super cool. You made some really great looking environments with just text. The one with the magnifying glass type thing was a little confusing to figure out, but once I did, that one was great too. Great Job!
