Am I being particularly dense?  I can't figure out what the PIN is supposed to be; the screen is the only thing I've found that I can interact with.

Neither...

It's their birthday today, and we know the date. Surely it's some form of the date? But none seem to work.

Yes, you're on the right track. I've updated the pin hint, so it should be easier to figure out now.

Yay, thank you! I'd actually tried a lot of codes like that, but I think the extra complication of American / European date formats meant I'd missed that exact one. Still, now that I can play the game it's really fun!

Very short, obviously, but lots of potential. It reminds me of Strange Horticulture, if you know it.

Thanks! And yes, I did play Strange Horticulture somewhat recently, so it might've been in my subconscious haha

Ah--somehow I parsed "November 15" as today's date (which is a thing a lot of computers-within-computer-games do), and didn't particularly parse the birthday hat as "today is my birthday".  (It's an old decoration?  They came from the break room where there was cake for a coworker's birthday?  Anyway.)

Sorry, the PIN ended up being unnecessarily difficult. I've updated the game with a new hint that should make it easier.

OK, now that I've gotten into the computer, I can see how this has plenty of potential.  Don't let game jam time limits keep you from seeing where you can take this!

Thank you! I'll definitely continue it eventually =)
