A feel a little disorientated at the beginning with the boxes, but after that it was a very good experience. I love the art.

Thanks for playing! The algorithm to take the passwords is:
1.- From a dictionary I pick a random password. All words have 6 letters.
2.- From the same dicitionary I pick 3 random passwords which has at least 3 letters in common with the password.
3.- Same as above but 3 words with 2 letters in common and 3 words with 1 letter in common. Then 2 words with no letters in common to complete 12 words.
So one little trick is that sometimes you "see" some words that looks the same, and one of those is 99% of the times the correct password.
Thanks for playing! In the early development process I had another idea about the game, and the analyze command had a different approach. However, while testing it with my friends, I found that the layer of difficulty added by the need of type the command while you are trying to type fast was funny.
Thanks for play it! Do you have play Fallout 3/4? It's the same game when you need to hack a terminal. The password is one of the 12 words that the console shows to you, and the likeness is the number of letters that your type has in common with the correct password. If the password is gamejam, and you type gonehat, your likeness is 3 because you have 3 letters in the same place as the correct password. It's similar to mastermind too. Give it another try!
Congrats to all submissions on advance!
