Hey,so I just played for about an hour and reached an ending.
I think the concept is interesting and the storyline is pretty unique and engaging. I feel like i figured out what was really going on fairly quickly (unless there is something even deeper I don't know about yet), by browsing through directories before I was "supposed" to. Was a bit thrown off when 'cd /' didn't send me to the root directory, but it wasn't a problem.
I was impressed by how responsive and usable the "shell" is - in other games I've tried, you're usually locked to preset commands and there is no per-command help or even man pages. The TAB autocomplete works very well. I did think however that the "watcher" messaged me way too often, scrolling me away from text I was reading. Another problem was that when I scrolled up to read some previous messages, the terminal kept auto-scrolling down to the end with no way to stay in place. This was especially problematic towards the end when way more foreign messages started appearing.
I also encountered an issue when using 'clear' - the screen cleared, but then the output of my previous 'cat' command continued to be displayed over and over. I had to exit out to the menu to stop it.
The story is very cryptic and at first I was really confused about what was going on, but managed to slowly piece it together. I think I get the gist, but some details still confuse me. I'll definitely dive back in to try different "behaviours" to see what changes.
Overall, I think this is a very interesting concept which is very well executed. I'm curious to see where it will go next and how the story will evolve. Thank you for making such a neat game, wish you all the best in future development :)
(game ver. - 0.5)
Happy to hear that, if you liked the plot and you want to contribute, I will be glad to have you feedback and insert it to the project, just send me a private message , we do not want to have spoilers, :)
I tried it out for a few mins. Can you unlock shortcuts like CTRL+W or CTRL+Arrow Keys, later on? I made some mistakes typing.
Great idea, I will work it during the week, how was it?
