Very hard but i like it a lot!
i suck at typing but i still really enjoyed this one. Good job guys 👍
The game idea was very very interesting. It was difficult to play it but very fun and interesting. The game style is simple but gives that feeling of being the machine and its really good.
clever and fun
I had too much fun with this, the music really makes me feel like a certified HACKERMAN.
Once I got to the score commands I had forgotten the syntax though, it'd be nice to have quick access to the command syntax. maybe there is and I missed it. I can definitely see some lore building up slowly through commands alone, I was picturing some of these players hunting together, perhaps even some pvp going on
I am command line
That's a nice take!
I really liked this. Well done!
fun concept, was interesting being in the setting of a terminal and a game at the same time. Well done!
I always wanted to be a server.
Becoming a server is the dream for most (all?) CS students. I was living the dream for 104 ms.
Fun concept, but had a hard time keeping up since I'm not familiar with the command screen and inputting commands. I think if there was a key to the bottom corner of all the different commands instead of typing it in it would help with being able to play longer.
The point of the game is that it eventually gets very frantic and difficult to keep up even for a fast typist. Having buttons to automatically insert the commands kind of goes against that goal
i dont think they meant something to type for you, just a little reminder display so you dont forget the commands! games like Receiver 2 have complex inputs and display all the actions in the corner, or something like the rulebook that you can leave open in Papers Please mightve been helpful
Thanks Doeball! That's exactly what I meant haha
nice job, very well made. The sound effects bring it together
Interesting concept. Well made.
Very Cool
This is great! I just wish if you pressed the up arrow it would get the previous command. But maybe I'm just bad.
ngl i tried that while playing sometimes lol, keyboard shortcuts wouldve definitely helped!
I haven't seen much games like this, so that gets creativity, i understand that this style of game doesn't have much to present but it was still somewhat clean! It did get a bit overwhelming but i enjoyed it overall.
A very fun game, unique style, and frantic gameplay. It really tests how fast you can type
Got a little overwhelmed after about 8 commands, cool game though! Guess both of us were programming inspired ;)
Really fun take on an old style of game, and it looks very pretty!
