How is your game meta (within each relevant category)?
Meta_Labrynth.exe breaks the 4th wall by having a lot of the main game mechanics use something from the computer, either that being the Desktop wallpaper, or a file in your system.

Anything you want to say to players before they play?
If you want to record, make sure that you record the entire screen, and set it up before starting the game. Also it would help if you didn't have any other files open while playing.
Every single effect in this game is reverse-able, and you are not in danger from this game.

Thanks for playing! Also, I had forgotten that the version you played was the original, so consider yourself a Beta Tester!
I think the new version is a lot clearer than that, both in terms of game mechanics, bug fixes, and puzzle understanding elements!
Also, sorry for the background. I still don't know how to change it. I just saw a command someone else made, and modified it to fit into my game. I think your old background is saved though (this is the case in my computer).
Thanks for playing!

Thanks for playing!
Also thanks for reporting these (bugs/glitches/overlooked points)! I'll get them fixed as soon as possible, and there will be an update in the next couple days (hopefully today)!
My end goal is to remove almost every bug this game has to offer, because even the slightest one can cause some short-term problems with your device.
I'll remove the debug thing, make the first ending clearer, add a button that resets the game's window position to the middle of the screen (the button will be clear), and try to add a visual representation of the sound room!
I'll also try to prevent your desktop files from being scattered all around. If I can't fix it in the next couple of days, just turn on the invisible files visibility, and that is a guarantee fix, but not as impressive from the game's perspective!
Thanks for posting! :D

Thank you! And I should probably add a pre-game warning for that open window issue...
Yes, this is an actual error. Thank for bringing it to my attention! I just added a small debug log that will appear as a .txt in the same folder as the game, so this would help me figure out what's going wrong.
Just download the latest version and send me the debug log. Also, if you have Discord, we can talk over there. Here's my username: J̷͍̐͑͘͜a̷͔̺͘s̶̢̬̈́̃̅o̸̝̺̒̚n̶̛̼̿͘
Great metagame ! I've not finished it for now, but I've enjoyed all I've played here. I've probably done something wrong (I've made jump the arrow outside the game's frame, so the game's window becomes useless ^^"), so I think I'll have to start the game from scratch ^^ Not easy to understand what to do sometimes, but I really liked the concept ^_^
You can move the game window now, or drag the actual window without the frame! Just check around your screen, maybe something's hiding beyond the four walls of the game!
Also thanks for the feedback! And, how did you close the game in the first place? Did you restart your computer of through the task manager? Because those are the only two ways I can think of to force the game to close...
