SP1 version is out!
The new version of the game I have worked on during the rating period is available. Thanks again to all the players who provided feedback, it was very useful and motivating.
At the menu :
- Lot of bug fixes.
- Sound balancing.
- Remake of a few levels, with attention to better readability of the systems.
- Whole rework of the difficulty, with some changes on the commands.
- Added a new mechanic, the data storage, with the new command rm.
- Added 5 new levels.
- Rework of the visuals to improve the readabilty of text (without sacrificing the visual effect)
this is awesome!! i really love the concept and presentation. if i were to give criticism, i'd say that adding the ability to separate commantds with a ; or add a wait function (like in quadrilateral cowboy) would be helpful and let the player focus on solving the puzzle and less on whether they can type fast enough. also, i ran into a graphical bug on level 5 where the crt effect didn't appear. other than those things though, this is a really solid old os game with clever level design and controls that are the perfect amount of clunky but still intuitive. excellent job!!!

10/10 just amazing. The idea is great and the presentation is one of, if not the best, I have seen in the jam. Great work, keep it up :)

This is excellent! And what a great take on the concept. The look and vibe are really nice too. With more levels I could play for hours! Fantastic work!

This was super cool man! I love the theme. I love the presentation and how you did the VO and SFX. Really and immersive experience and made me feel like i was really in front of the computer. Sadly, I couldn't get too far because of my typing speed but I thought it was fun. Killer Job!

Things I liked:
The whole presentation really got me into a hacker mindset, with the screen aftereffect (especially the fail animation), and particularly the key stroke sfx. I found the difficulty to be just right, hard without feeling impossible or completely overwhelming. I liked the design on a lot of the later levels, especially 5 and 7. You communicated all the commands diegetically, which makes it feel much less like a tutorial and much more like part of the experience.
Potential areas for improvement:
Some of the earlier levels felt a little redundant; it felt very clear that you can use commands before boot from the get-go. Level 6 felt too easy in comparison to the levels around it, mainly because I think there were an unnecessarily large amount of doors. It felt simple, but you seem to be working on changing that for the better, although you should probably keep in mind the tightness of the timing while typing multiple different commands-- it's already pretty hard. Also, the idea of a "crazy" virus feels very un-fun, particularly in comparison to the other ideas you mentioned, which seem like brilliant mechanics with lots of cool possibilities.
Overall:
You've committed to improving a game that already feels great, which I'm very happy to see. Given what you already have and the ideas you have proposed, I believe that you are fully capable of making this game even better than it already is. Good luck, and I'm excited to see what happens!

BlastThanks a lot for your feedback! Yes the two first levels feels redundants, I wanted to be sure the first level was possible for someone who did not understand he can type in command before the boot (and a lot of the playtester I got fall into this category). The ones that understood directly are bored on the second level. Yes the 6th level is more easy than I thought, I will certainly remove level 2 and put level 6 sooner. Yes you're right! I've tested the crazy AI actually it's garbage. :p

The screen within a screen actually made the experience pretty surreal! (The warped screen effect was very effective.) The loud clacking of my keyboard put me in a "quick coder" mindset and added a lot of weight to the experience. I look forward to a game like this with more commands at my disposal. I can't even imagine the directions it could go! My only complaint, and it's a minor one, was that I wish closing the door before the virus getting there was a little more forgiving. A few times I could see the virus wasn't blocking the door, but the command prompt told me I was! I was still able to get through all the levels, so it wasn't impossible.
Thanks for the weird game experience! I really liked it!

Extraordinary atmosphere, totally a cool game some evening while wearing headphones. I like that you added your voice to the game and I highly enjoy the idea of controlling a game by typing.
"help" command is very useful, but I forgot about it immediately, along with all the other commands. Thinking of it as learning a new programming language, I believe it would be good to hold player's hand for the first couple of levels and help them just a bit more.

I love stuff like this that makes me feel like an old school computer hacker. Very cool man. My only advice would be to make sure that every level teaches the player something they don't already know. I felt like the first couple levels were very repetitive. Still, very good game.

Cool use of a command prompt as a controller! It would be interesting to have difficulty modes based on typing speed. Nice work!

The screen distorting made it quite hard to see what I was typing / reading. But I really liked your idea. The sfx of the guy responding to your actions was a really nice touch. Good job!
