Really well done experience! The visuals and atmosphere were great and it made the whole thing feel quite "tactile" if that makes any sense. One thing though, I couldn't find the 2nd digit for the life of me and ended up brute forcing it. Where was I supposed to find it if you don't mind me asking?
This game is a really cool experience! Here are my thoughts on what is happening in it.
My guess as to what is happening is that this server has someone's consciousness in it who has died, their brain being used to compute and render what we see. It tries to keep up with rendering what we see but is not fast enough giving us the effect the visuals have (data-moshing I think it is called) and starts to overheat, trying its best to keep up.
As it overheats more and more, the panic sets in, and it starts to let out more words trying to rationalize its situation, saying more and more as it gets hotter, until it finally gives out. The last words of the entity "I AM NOT WHAT REMAINS" are telling us that, though the mind is still going, whatever this thing once was has been forgotten. Only its final painful moments, the injuries described, can be recalled. Not even the name of whatever this entity once was remains.
Also, notice how this entity never speaks in uppercase until these last words. I don't really know what this means, but it seems like a neat detail none the less.
It may be a stretch, but the fact that we are driving and that we are in is a city makes me feel like this person died in a driving related accident before being transplanted into, and becoming, this entity.
This entity does not seem to die at the end, as we can restart, and I think that is part of a cycle. It starts up, forgetting most of what it is. Then it is found by somebody, us as the player, who connects to it and makes it hopelessly try and compute this "game". After overheating, it finally dies, only to be restarted and have the cycle repeat.
That is all I have to say, feel free to add on in the replies if you have any other ideas.
This game is awesome, I love the visuals. The rules feel quite unique and the game gets very chaotic on later floors. I just wish you couldn't get teleported into enemies/fire as it is slightly frustrating. Excellent work!
That was pretty fun. It was quite a neat experience trying to slingshot myself back upwards in the map, and I really did feel "out of control" for the most part. The art was also very nice. Great job!
Pretty good! The only thing I find odd is that the controls use A and D to run, but both buttons move you in the same direction. Besides this it was quite fun.
Really cool game! I really like the music and art. Just a heads up if you update it. You should probably make heart "cards" only spawn when enemies are in the room or else you can just farm them after all the enemies are dead.
This is great! The chamber was fun to solve and the game was quite funny given the circumstances of the player's character. Took me three tries to solve. I love how when the wall is about to crush you the music changes and how most of the text in the game are lyrics in Mambo No. 5.
