I had a blast playing this. The Papers Please vibe was very strong. If you permit, here are my punch ups for Else Walker:
- A cycle indicator. I may be wrong, but I believe you run the If-Else If-Else loop in a cycle with a fixed interval. If a small circle animation was showing how close the player is to the cycle beginning, it would give them an opportunity to make more precise instruction swaps.
- Inexplicably, Eddie spawns in a new room off screen instead of on a first tile. I'd consider this a bug.
- The first sequence is amazing - you input a simple program and Eddie goes through the title screen on his own. It would be a great way to expose more story later. There is that one room with guns overhead, but the program was just "Walk" there.
Lovely game, Kevin. You are an inspiration.
