Some graphics would definitely help I couldn't read the whole story and check everything. But it's a good start Congrats !!

Congratulations to your first game and game jam. I am not a huge fan of text based games, but I really liked you writing style. I did not play the whole game, but very cool that you have different endings! Keep on making games :).

Developer

Hey thanks for the feedback! I'm glad you liked my writing style :)

Pretty interesting writing!

I know the game is supposed to be story-driven, but always reading a story can get repetitive game-loop wise. I would add images to look at and maybe minigames spread around (sounds corny, but a lot of text-based games do that to keep the game loop going, otherwise always doing the same thing gets boring)

Congrats on submitting to the game jam!

Developer

Hey thanks for the feedback! Graphics were going to be my next addition if I had time :)

It won't let me type anything in the pass word box. Am I missing something?

Developer

No you should definitely be able to type after clicking on it, I'll look into it.

Pretty good run at setting the mood. Only thing that really bothered me was the text off the top of the monitor the whole game. I got stuck on the reviewing camera footage and 2 theories of how subject 278 escape screen. There was no back button and Escape key didn't work either.

Developer

Hey thanks for the feedback! I was also frustrated with the text, couldn't figure out how to keep it boxed in but let it scroll in css. 

I'll have to look into the getting stuck issue at the end and figure out what went wrong.

Maybe u can make the text shorter cus it is a little boring now

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! I was definitely worried about that!
