Insane the amount content packed in here for the time frame, loved the visuals and vibe, took me a while to figure out what was going on but I got one of the endings in the end. I’m definitely returning to find the second one. This concept has a lot of potential and I would love to see more of this.

A really polished and engaging experience all around! The atmosphere is immediately established with the viuals and audio and the writing is descriptive yet mysterious! It took me a while to figure out the puzzle interactions but once I did I was able to get to one of the endings. A really compelling and well-made game, great work! :D

Interesting game. I did not get past the breakingloop section with all three terminals in the same loop area, might have misinterpreted what to do next. I did enjoy the puzzle of figuring out the loops and how they connected tho.

cool looking game, as others have said, amazing atmosphere, but I’m too dumb, and couldn’t pass from loop2

Really cool game! The atmosphere and narrative were very well done. I would love to see this expanded upon.

On a side note, in the web version sometimes going in and out of fullscreen freezes the whole display (I kept accidently pressing ESC trying to exit the terminals and then having to restart the game). I don't know if there's an easy fix or it's just a problem with godot/itch io, but I thought it was worth mentioning.

I love how this game blends video game logic and a little bit of terminal wizardry. The atmosphere is so eerie, and the twists of the puzzle were very clever and well hinted.

> The atmosphere and visuals are outstanding, drawing you into this dark, captivating world from the very first moments. The story and loop mechanic work together to create a unique sense of immersion. I especially enjoyed the idea with the monitors – it really stands out and makes you want to see how it could be developed further. The game left a strong impression – thank you for this experience.

The game has really nice eerie aesthetics, took me a bit to understand how the loop works.

This is really narratively fascinating, I like that you accounted for the player immediately throwing themselves off the cliff. The vibe was very ominous throughout, loved the coherent visual aesthetics. It kinda reminded me of Devil Daggers somehow. Great entry and such an ominous loop!

After I got the first ending I forgot what I did and couldn't get any endings lol. I really wish I knew what to do, this game has a great vibe and probably a better story. Great job though!

extremely creative, i love text games, i love old crts and terminals so it gets bonus points. I did struggle with knowing what to do though.

I really wanted to keep on playing the game but reaaally struggled to understand what the game expected me to do. I was left wanting to know more as it’s very well written, and the whole atmosphere/aesthetic was just on point. Hope to see more of this stuff soon!

Goosebumps. The atmosphere is conveyed incredibly well. The music fits perfectly. I really liked the idea of reflecting events in the monitor — it has great potential to be developed further. I truly enjoyed the gameplay experience. One of the best games I've rated so far this year.

What was the mechanic? I couldn't figure it out.
