Terminal

Fun game, but really hard!

Pretty nifty concept. I would love to see more levels added.

Can see very cool approach to the theme. Nice job!

Nice little game! Clever take on the theme.

Super awesome idea! I died 23 times^^ It took me some time to figure out the controls, because with 'l' and 's' you can also walk. Also very cool that files that can be opened are highlighted as such. Would like to see a post-jam version of this.

Very clever idea.

This idea is very clever, I found the downward momentum a little weird but all in all it's a very good game.

@pythooonuser Thanks for playing! Yeah I built in hidden vim-style controls. You can move left and right with h/l, and jump with j. I was going to build a level themed around the vim editor, but I didn't have time to finish the mechanics for it.

@fallingflatstudios yeah the I was trying to fuss around with a gravity multiplier on falls because my character felt too floaty, but I couldn't get it quite right.

Awesome concept, loved the very different things you did with so little mechanics. I think this might be the best terminal game I've ever played, congrats!

The open command isn't working

I had a good laugh with this one! Great concept!

It's not clear that you need to stand on it

@justicepro Yeah I got that feedback from some of my friends as well, I'll need to reword the help description post jam.

Fun game, I really like the meta concept of moving through the code! Amazing Work!

I am in love

Wow, this is crazy unique! It took me a second to even figure out what was going on.

This was quite creative. Really enjoyed playing through it. You could craft a really cool story with this, excellent job!

Great idea, great design, I loved it ! It really looks like a real terminal
It took me a while to understand that you have to stand on a file to be able to open it, I was typing "open " :)

This concept is so good, I was sad when it ended. The execution felt spot on and the puzzles were clever for what they were. I would love to play more games like this to learn about how to use bash / terminal, or other programming languages.

Good idea! I like the idea of exploring a terminal session, but some of the platforming (particularly level 2) felt awkward.

Really fun idea. I like the idea of combining a terminal and platformer. Thanks for bringing it by the stream!

Wow this was fun!

Ooh baby...command prompt puzzles! The idea is fantastic! Loved the mechanics, wished it was longer. The mechanics probably could've been presented in a more digestible manner, but I eventually figured everything out. Some keyboard click sounds probably would've gone a long way in increasing mood. Thanks for sharing!

Loved this. It scratched my itch for platformers and terminal nerdery. Jumping at the top of the screen killed me a few times, don't know if that's intended, but still a lot of fun.

Really cool, only problem was with falling speed-it was hard to control falldown movement. Loved it!

@palemek Thanks for the feedback. Yeah it was something I wasn't too happy about either. Was trying to avoid making it too floaty but went too far the other way. Definitely going to look into tweaking post jam.

@jaydubbyasee looking forward to next version :)

This is a really wonderfully clever game! Hope to see updates!

Very cool idea. It was probably good that the number of commands to run were limited. That said, confession, there was a bit of a learning curve using the Open command, as nothing indicates why it doesn't work without standing on top of an orange file.

I did think the platformer controls were sluggish and uncomfortable. A huge problem I encountered was that I had no idea how large my character was, and how large each platforms were, felt unfair towards the last, final level. I really did enjoy the idea, though, so I strongly appreciate it for what it is.

This is such a quirky concept! I had a good time with it even though I already kinda knew what to do from watching the streamers above, and have recommended it to some friends (including a total console junkie who should get a kick out of it.) I don't really have anything to add feedback wise - it sets an interesting goal and hits it.

@kooshy Glad you liked it!

Amazing, super clever and fun idea. I had flashbacks to picoctf : D
The only problem i had was the movement... it felt a bit clunky excluding falling it just was clunky

very good entry! keep up good work and try to work on it outside the jam

Very innovative. I would never have thought of the platformer/terminal combo but you pulled it off very well. With just enough puzzle elements to make me think and move the game mechanics along.

Closing terminal session... That's awesome. That's concept can be developed into something bigger. Thanks :wink:
