Nice :) I’m glad you enjoyed

Thanks :) It’s been real encouraging talking to people about it

Hello, intrepid reader. It has been some time since you last saw your friend, Dex. Where did they go? You’ll have to break into their early Apple inspired computer to find out, rooting around in their memories; trespassing upon their digital domain. Use the built in search function to discover hidden secrets! Take notes using the StickyNotes app! Make doodles! Spookiness, silliness, and sweetness await in EyeOS!

PS: This is my debut game, and takes about 15 min to complete (I think)! I hope you’ll give it a try :)

This is where I found out how to do spoiler text: https://itch.io/t/2151831/adding-spoiler-text-to-your-game-description

This is my first time making an actual game and certainly my first time seeing someone play through a game I’ve made—all of which is to say, thanks! It provided useful insight to see you interact with it

Yaaay

Hehe I appreciate it—I definitely spent the majority of my time working on this tweaking UI and verisimilitude stuff, so it makes me happy that it paid off :)

Also for the music I actually just used the method I saw in this game: https://sharkinfishnets.itch.io/thefamilyrecord

On an unrelated note it’s been a real treat getting comments from people I recognize from the Decker community! Like when I saw your name in my comments I was just like “:0 That’s the person who made all the cool music stuff!”

I’m glad you liked it! Creepy, sweet, and silly was pretty much the vibe I was going for hehe

I will also be sure to tell my friend you liked her song and when she shares it somewhere I will link to it here :)

As for endings,

Thanks for your kind words ;-; I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much

Also I think the thing that occurred to me while making this is that the thing that really scares me is to see myself through someone else, if that makes sense

I'm glad I could provide some scares! Was a little worried that my goofiness would cancel out the spookiness hehe

Also I really enjoyed playing around in Desker, by the way! It helped me realize how flexible Decker could be

Thanks! This game started out as a handful of ideas for how to use different contraptions from the Decker community

Thanks for catching that! I know I made this in a fugue state, but I still can't believe I made that error so many times haha. It should be fixed now

Howdy all! Just wanted to share my first Decker project.  It's a short little mystery game set in a simulated desktop (replete with some fun little features like sticky notes and saving files to the simulated computer for verisimilitude!). Was an absolute blast to work with this program, much respect to Internet Janitor for making it. 

Anyway, here's the itch.io page: https://trainspotter.itch.io/eyeos

And here are some screenshots!

Found a hot-fix to my problem! For anyone curious, I just had to go into the prototype and override the link function in the embedded field (while being sure to point outside of the prototype with something like "deck.cards.exampleCard.widgets.exampleContraption.toggle[]"). In any case, I am having a blast making this game and am excited to share when it's in a more complete state.  Also looking forward to the Decker Summer Jam!

Thanks!

Thank you so much for your response! It really helped clarify what exactly my problem is. The field that contains the link I want to click to produce this behavior is embedded within a custom contraption, and for some reason that is causing some hiccup in my attempts to override the default behavior. So far I have tried adding this code to the script for the custom contraption and adding this code to the script for the embedded field in the prototype, but no luck yet. I'll keep trying though!

Hello! Before anything else, I want to say how much I'm enjoying learning to use Decker---it's a real delight to make games in, and to just make fun UIs with. The reason I'm writing to you now, though, is that I've been struggling to override the default behavior in response to a link event. For example, there is a field I want to toggle the visibility of in response to a link event, so I wrote this in the script of another field that contains the link:

"on link x do

       examplefield.toggle[]

end"

but the deck still seems to be trying to navigate to a card named x instead.  Is there a different way I should be trying to override this behavior? Also, since I have your attention, is there a way to embed widgets within a rich text field? Thanks in advance for the help! Also sorry if these questions are strange or simple, I'm pretty new to coding and such.

Hello! I'm working on a game where I'm simulating a computer desktop, and I was wondering how exactly one might embed widgets in the rich text field of your component. I'm very new to all this, so learning new tricks is a consistent struggle haha. But thanks for all the work y'all do making such neat stuff! And also thanks in advance for your help ;-;
