Update 1: Version 2.3

The Lost Borealis Expedition
A browser game made in HTML5

I've got some really good feedback during the jam which has encouraged me to fix some of the problems that I couldn't during the jam development period.

The changes made in the updated version - v2.3 are:

Cryptic Puzzle:

  1. Added option to clear letters and highlighted clickable squares
  2. Changed puzzle 3 in Part II to make the triangle's movement pattern clearer
  3. More hints for Part II

Diary Entries:

  1. The Witness Statements section now doesn't require the player to make any deductions
  2. A new Hammocks section to deduce hammock assignments
  3. A new Logical Explanations section to make deductions about witness experiences
  4. A new Times section to make deductions about event times

I'll probably update the game once more after the voting period is over to fix any remaining issues but I hope these changes provide the players with a gentler difficulty curve and a more enjoyable experience.

Thanks to every one who played the game and provided valuable feedback!
