Hey fellow jammer! I’m here to write you a review for this game, but before I submit I like to first write out my thoughts here.

Oh boy where do i start…

Pros:

  • Itch page: This pages is super on theme fort the game and puts you right in it.
  • Gameplay: Oh boy, this gameplay is so fun, i honestly love it when people take these kind of risks and make games mostly aimed at developer/IT workers to play for fun.
  • Goal: The goal is very clear without having to read a whole lot of tutorial.
  • Navigation: ey you know what, F*ck that mouse, keyboard only gang rules!! So this navigation also absolutely rules!
  • Game Option method: The game options are done in the same way the game is played, which feels very nice.
  • Theme option: Adding an option of color to the game is very neat.
  • Sound design: Minimalistic, simplistic and perfect. less is more.
  • Less is more!!

Cons:

  • Too many pros: This game is too good and i cant write out all the pros as its simply too many.
  • Im tired boss…: Im very tired from participating in this game jam and would like to sleep, but this game has kept me from that for a good chunk of time, so yeah… stop that.

Alright jokes aside though:

  • Missing unix features: A very universal feature of a unix terminal is the arrow up feature where the already typed commands get pulled back in the text entry, this game is missing that.
  • QoL Text editing: I understand that this would have likely taken too much time, but the game is also missing some very crucial text editing features, like CTRL+Arrow(right|left) where it would move the cursor to… opens game again > types text > holds control and presses arrow key > HOLY SH*T!! nevermind i guess… lets add that to pros…
  • Pros outmatch cons: By way too much…

I honestly hope you win this, you deserve it and if you ever update this game, ill be watching!

Thank you very much for playing and for leaving such a detailed review. It truly warms my heart to hear about how much you enjoyed RETERMINAL and hearing your appreciation for the various features I added makes it feel all the more worthwhile to have added them. Can't believe I didn't think of unix memory, if I return to this project or tackle a similar project in the future I'll be certain to add such a feature. Overall, thank you for your kind words and support!
