HAUNT
Type commands into the terminal window to move yourself through haunted cyberspace.
Use `h` or `help` to see a list of the most acceptable commands.
`scan off` and `music off` will turn off the scanlines and pause the music respectively. Some users may experience eye strain if playing with scanlines active.
String together movement commands! `w w w w` will move your character 4 spaces west until you hit a wall.
Think you've made the ghost happy enough? Try to leave and see if you've appeased it sufficiently!
>You've established ZOOM connection to an alien outpost! But the connection is unstable. But you're confident you can fix it. Absolutely.
>
>Ha! As if. Now you're trapped in the terminal with an unstable ghost.
>
>Appease the ghost by finding the thing it's been looking for --- except it doesn't quite remember what.
>
>The right thing will make it happy; the wrong thing will make it angry. Happy ghost will let you out but angry ghost will start destroying things.
>
>Investigate the rooms as much as you like, but you can only carry three (3) things. Offer one to the ghost and see how it feels.
>
>Go on. Open the.. terminal.. and start figuring out what to bring to an angry cyberghost.

(Hint until we get to this update: look at the top right corner --- the player character is the ? on the map and the ghost is the %)
Known items:
The game will still tell you that you moved in X direction even if you're running into a wall. Haha, oops.
