How did you incorporate the theme and lore?
I thought of the theme as "manipulating values in memory"
and for the lore... I just used it as an excuse to make games based on the same concept and the exact same universe to make up for how short the game actually is.

I played your game on stream here for real time reactions (Game can be found in description next to time stamp):
haha, I was watching while you were playing, I dont really have a youtube account so thats why I got The Diamond Productions to message you for me
Nicely done C64 emulation. Interesting concept
thanks
tbh went a bit over my head 😅 Gave it a couple shots, typed “poke 53248,1” but kept getting “syntax error” and “Ready” Would have been nice to have the instructions built in to the game and not have to go to an external github source code to analyze in order to play the game. (I know you said the hints are in parentheses, but I couldn’t get the initial POKE command to work and if it did work i had no clue what to do next)
having a reference page with available commands and options to use would be neat and make it a lot more user friendly. Love the aesthetics btw!
that's interesting, it worked for me when testing it on the VICE emulator, and even the JS embed I used, not sure what happened there.
I think I understand now
here is a screenshot of the game - just tried again, i’m using the web version
did i do it right?
you need to type ",1" after it, you're giving it a memory address without a value to write to it
I tried both, look at the line above, the one without a ,1 is my second attempt after the first syntax error 😞
You need to preform the command after you press enter at the next prompt, not doing that will crash the game for real
As that syntax error came from the game itself not being able to handle the input
So basically, the part with the hint, you can only press enter, or it will syntax error, you can tell because of the “? poke 53248,1” when you should have done that at the ready prompt
First, It was very hard but after some time only I can understand a little bit!!!
Try to make games that are can be easily understand
I didn't expect everyone to have such a hard time trying to play the game, you can use the inbuilt hints or use the github to guide you
I want this game in every school so they can teach children how to be a hacker :)
better hope they still have a stock of c64 computers
I sadly didn't understand what I was supposed to do. Feels like I'm missing something obvious. ^^'
you can either search through the GitHub repo or the hints shown before the game crashes
Cool! I’ll give it another go! :D
sure! Go ahead
Interesting game. A bit hard to get what's going at first, but the Github repo was helpful.
:)
Game feels like a hacker text, just like hacking, I cant understand it whatsoever, but i got the hang of it after a while. Maybe put some of the hints in the game or on itch page instead of git
the part that crash actually have hints built in.
so the line "oh wait, covid exists(poke 53248,1)"
that has a little hint showing to do that poke address 53248.
The github repo was just the source code to type into real hardware
The game is cool, it makes me feel like a hacker.
:)
