Twixtor: Yeah, Unity wasn't the right choice. I had plans to use graphics at some point. Didn't get around to it in the end.
Chromebookbob: Thanks! I'm glad the feel came across =)
Gaga: Thanks for playing, and feedback! I think typing "help" or "network" again might have helped, but I definitely had trouble getting the right hints across in places.
I'am so bad at these kind of games >.< When I connected to maryWS the screen got black and nothing happend. I also can not go back :/ Still interesting approach to the theme.
Interesting concept, had a great time playing it. Story is great. Not a big fan of this kind of games , but you added a special touch to it:D great work
Thanks everyone! I'm glad the console came across well. I haven't played hack run, but I guess I assumed it would be like this. I should check it out.
Sorry for the parts where the story, goals or puzzles are unclear. They were all kind of rushed. But I'll make a note to set the stage a little bit better.
Nizl, that sounds like a bug >.< I'll take a look.
Really great game and liked the way you used the theme, one of my favourite uses so far. Also liked the old command prompt like interaction but did run into a bug. I connected and spread around the world but then a bug seemed to occur where it says : "Development Console" Canvas element contains more than 65535 vertices. This is not supported. Liked reading the emails in the folders to find out more about what was going on too, well written. Fun game and does make me want to go back and play an old text adventure.
Thanks for the bug reports guys, I think Nizl experienced the same bug. Basically I let the history get too long. I've started trimming it now. So it shouldn't happen again.
Interesting idea. Would love to play a fully fleshed out game with this style (Mu Complex is ringing a bell). Not sure if I beat it or what though. A tad bit confusing.
Nice approach to playing a sentient AI! I enjoyed playing this one.
I saw a bug: sporadically, where instead of formatting words with colors, it displays the html tags around the words. A few commands later and the formatting corrected itself (is your game self correcting and sentient?).
Overall a great entry! A web based framework would serve you much better over unity too.
For the record, I would play a full game like this :)
Nice story, nice feelings. I liked it even if it was pretty easy and short. My only complain goes to Unity ignoring the rich text from time to time, leaving me with all the color tags around the place.
Thanks for the feedback guys! Yeah, the rich text thing only happened briefly on mine, so I figured it was livable, but I guess it's happening worse than I thought >.<
I will definitely engineer a bit better next time. Writing character by character with rich text was always going to be hacky.
Your game is a little gold mine in term of interaction :) i'm not a programmer so i liked to have my hand dirtying on this, i just felt monstruous manipulating command. :P I may be mistaken, but you putted a lot of effort into it, well done.

Story's intriguing too!

Great work nonetheless.
