Love the visuals and style. Enjoyed the tense breath (played with the lights off on a big tv and headphones). Would be nice to get some feedback when typing (or have a flashing cursor) and some sound /feedback when the text comes out. I got a little lost as took a while to realise I should be using nsew not forwards etc. Maybe some sound effects when things happen. The slow fade as your still typing when you die was a really nice artful touch. Would be interesting to have super minimal text effects when things happen too. Project has great scope! Would be interested to play updated version! :)

Wow, what a cool concept. The sound of the pilot breathing in the background and textual descriptions of what's going on makes it surprisingly immersive -- the whole thing really sells the hopelessness of the situation. Very clever application of the theme.

Very tense! I found it easy to get into and imagine the situation. A great entry for the jam

I really loved the idea behind this. It's truly immersive and I had a lot of fun with it, even though I died a lot! Definitely unique.
