I solved it without using a single clue. The most annoying puzzle was the last one because despite knowing what to do the lyrics were really hard to find. Anyways, the last one brought down the experience for me, but as a person who typically can be stuck in puzzle games for a while, I never had that problem here aside from executing the solution. The text at the end cut off, so I didn't know what it said. Also, making the lore clearer could also be good.

Thank you so much for the feedback, i take notes.
I kind of agree, its not that hard, its just unnecessarily tedious.

Great use of the limitation, I had a lot of fun working through the puzzles.

really cool concept but the puzzles are too difficult so it kind of just felt like i was being told to look stuff up, i did really enjoy the b64 puzzle though!

This is incredible! I'm not very smart so had to use hints majority of the time, but even with that I still had a blast! I almost beat all of the puzzles, but level 8 didn't work for me sadly.

Developer

Thanks for playing! Dont worry, you are not the only one using hints, i think i made the questions too hard ahaha
Could you provide more details about why puzzle 8 didnt work please? Like which navigator you are using or where it didnt work

After decoded the message and clicking link. I hit F12 and nothing happened. Unfortunately that's all I can offer in terms of detail. Btw your game so creative and I can't state enough how much I loved it!

Developer

Oh ok, F12 usually its the same as right click and "Inspect element", but i didnt try it on every navigator, thanks for the feedback, i will change it on the clues page.

I love the cinematic feeling of this! The puzzles seem to be pretty smart, however I'm stuck on the second one xd maybe too smart... maybe providing the player with limited amount of hints they can use would help

The second is the one that scares me the most, because i feel like if you know, you know, but if dont, you can easily get stuck, but i couldn´t think of any better clue, so i will write a "cheatsheet" on the game page, thanks for the feedback!
