This was really really good. I loved the uncanny aesthetic. The minimalist graphical style and use of space. It was genuinely scary. Also, super impressive how well you worked with sound and scripting. As a first time decker user this was really inspiring because it opened me up to what's possible. My submission contains maybe 10% of what I had planned and while I was already going to finish it properly, this made me want to jump into it right now (which is crazy because I'm on about 3 hours of sleep lol). Side note: This IS decker right? If it is, then the fact that you can extend it so much with pygame/tkinter and package it as an exe is a game changer. I also love the really cool touch that was left outside the actual game. I'm not spoiling it because maybe someone else will also think it's awesome but I hope you know what I'm talking about. AWESOME job

Thank you for the feedback. No, surprisingly this is entirely pygame/tkinter with the visual and audio elements designed pretty cautiously to be specific to the 80s terminal look: no engine involved! I'm glad it was a motivator to keep on with These Are The Days because there absolutely needs to be more of that kind of stuff out there. Check out Hypercard Stacks on the Internet Archive if you haven't already! And yeah, couldn't help doing a bit of Who's Lilia-esque ARG stuff, which this game liberally takes cues from.
