I really like the puzzles in this, but to be honest, this is not the worst of it.  I really wish this were an interactive game.

Actually, that is not incorrect.  If you have not already, play a bit longer and see if you can figure out how you can do things.

Same!  I already beat the game, but I really really want to play this in a way where I can see these really neat things happening.  Optimally, a full interactive game, but at the least something where I can drag things around.  I suppose one thing that is difficult about that is unless the game contextually knows when to do things, the red mechanic might be spoiled by having controls for that.

I flipped through over 10,000 pages to see if I could find those pages, but they were nowhere to be found (which seems unlikely, given that there should be 10*2^4=160 of them, making almost 1 per thousand).  Are they not actually included in the current pdf version or something?

Amazing game!  I managed to beat it with all 4 secrets, but the ending felt really abrupt.  I took a look into your github source code, and found reference to a scene "the_end" that near as I can tell should play after defeating the final boss, but it doesn't; it just jumps directly to the "VICTORY!" screen.  Is this a bug or is there some other way of getting the ending cutscene?

Relatedly, I found several other mostly minor bugs and wanted to know if you would like to know of them (and if so, where to send those).  The largest is that the the audio file "JourneyToTheEastRocks" is not actually linked to in the book, while the rest are mostly minor rendering glitches or typos that can basically be ignored.

I got stuck in the top right.  V znantrq gb zbir gur ebpx bhg bs gur jnl, ohg abj V unir n znpuvar oybpxvat zl cngu...  Anybody got a tip?
