thank you for publishing such an excellent and unique puzzle! my partner and i just spent three hours puzzling through it and we enjoyed ourselves thoroughly!


we figured it all out without any of the hints from the bottom of the page, left or right, only to be extremely skeptical of the final message telling us we were done, especially since we'd already previously been fooled by the initial (lack of) instructions. we had all this information we hadn't decoded and figured there must be one last puzzle. dunno if there's any way to fix that, but it was a little frustrating having to peek into the spoiler forum to figure out that no, actually, we were, in fact, done; the game was not lying to us, for once.

Ah, thanks for letting me know. Other players have been a bit confused, but less so because they used those hints. I'll see if I can find a replacement for FIREDNOW, to change the last third of the message.

i'm not sure that changing the text of the final message would've actually helped us? since we were already assuming both that there was another layer, because we hadn't figured out what the hints even were, and also the game established that it was willing to mislead us. so "you're done! you've solved it! there's nothing left!" reads as though there is a cheeky wink afterwards (and naturally, we were greedy for MORE PUZZLE).

we can't really think of any way to actually solve this? it's probably fine as-is, but we still wanted to share our experience so you were aware.

the only thought i actually had about possibly fixing it, was revealing (one of?) the A hints, but that might also make their hintiness too obvious
