Terminal
Very somber game ... Trying to capture a feeling ... Access the terminals to find the next stage in the game
When in doubt - either go diagonally down and right, or just down !

Ah crap. Forgot to set folder to public. Should work now.

Hm, this was interesting. I like the wide-open spaces. I like the protagonist being made up of jumbly lines. The feeling of emptiness and loneliness. I got lost after the entrance, but I might give it another go!

A strangely creepy experience

Creepy mood, and cool music

Interesting experience. I must admit I didnt get it :)

MolarAmbiguity's review:
Interesting concept. The mood is really cool and the music atmospheric. I wandered around for a few minutes. There just isn't enough stuff to do whilst wondering around. I'm intrigued though!

I didn't know what to do after the entrance. I don't see how it fits with the theme, but I love the mechanic of the console story-telling.

There is another terminal to the bottom right ...

I'm not really sure if I reached the end... Interesting concept.

Still trying to understand why it's creepy ... It's suppose to be sad !

How far did you all get ?

The game feels a bit passive. I got lost after I was told "I don't know what to do now". I like the idea though :)

mike1101, I know, I got to that one too," I don't know what to do now" is as far as I got

Go diagonally to the bottom right from there ...

Pretty weird game... Tune was pretty somber. I don't understand how the theme is incorporated here. Are the terminals the weapon?
Good luck!

Yeah the use theme is a bit of a stretch ... Was trying to come up with an idea for ... them helping you defeat enemies but ran out of time.
Thanks so much for your feedback, everyone.

Didn't grab me, there was no motivation for me, just aimless wanderingen trying to find a new terminal. Intro to a storyline or some kind of scoring/progress meter would help me.

Maybe I'm bad at it, but there's really nothing on in this game. Music was the best part. Just a small bug: I sometimes entered the terminals unintentionally by just walking besides them.

This is the kind of "unconventional" game that I like coming out of something like LD. Very nice and athmospheric work.
One tiny complaint though: I had a pretty rough time navigating the "maze" in the gray area since the avatar moves so fast...

Thanks, farwyler !
Don't think anyone sees my comments on their comments !
On the aimlessness / emptiness - Kind of had to work with the time I had. So ... the idea is to create a mood ... I dunno if trying to justify it makes sense. It made me feel stuff ... But that might just be personal to me.
I saw the bug of entering the terminals unintentionally. Sucks. I tried to fix it. Ran out of time.
About the difficulty navigating the maze because the avatar is too fast - That's weird. I didn't have trouble. Maybe it runs faster on your machine ... Though I'm sure the framerate is locked ...
Once again - Thanks for your feedback, everyone !

Interesting idea! I played until "I don't know what to do now" but didn`t really know where to continue then.
