Well done!  Got 1 ending, will try for another,

Thanks!  We generally have no trouble submitting between LLMs because we summarize prior moves before submission.  The only (kinda weird) issue is that from what we can tell, only DeepSeek produces fun song mashups.  I don't have a working theory as to why that is.  Also -- played (and rated) Galactic Marbles.  Very nice! On the splash screen, you shoudl add that  quote from Carl Sagan:   "The universe is under no obligation to make sense to you."  Set people up for the scale you are playing at.

sigh.  yup.  chasing that bug.  I've seen it too.  Thanks.

thanks dude

Thank you for the feedback.  Always appreciated.

Thank you

Ahh . . it gave you the five movies you could choose from to combine . . and was programmed to ignore if a player inserted something other than the 5 initial choices.  From these 5 choices, you should be able to keep on merging until you derive all available movies int eh IMBD database.  And Yes!  I've played and rated Pun Geon.  Fun game!

Very nice atmospheric elements, terrific!  I will circle back to this game, as I do love a good story -- but first impressions are that this is a very interesting game.  

I think your instincts are right on.  Our next move is to create a graphical wrapper -- as well as some sort of "library" to hold your merges, and let you experiment with additional merges.  Also -- do try Eliot's Wasteland - a fairly short poem, but where we get the phrase "April is the cruelest month" -- enjoy!  https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/47311/the-waste-land  

April is the cruellest month, breeding

Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing

Memory and desire, stirring

Dull roots with spring rain.

I very much like the retro look and feel

Very nicely done!

Such a good idea!  Give it to any incomign college freshman class for orientation -- and have all the final matches eat lunch together.  Would be a cool way to make some new friends.  

Sorry about that @Krispp .  I just checked it out and it was working for me.  Please give it another try if you get the chance.  Thank you.

Works as advertised, start to finish. Very nice.

I like the AI-mediated parser.  You;ve got the basis for a very interesting experience.

Excellent game -- very nice

yes -- same problem

Hello Wiz Programmer -- i would like to play and rate your game, but am having a little trouble playing it. The right side panel gets so large it bleeds out of frame for me, making it unplayable.  Anything I can do?  tried Chrome (the latest update) and Brave (the next to latest).  Thanks!

Very fun.  Thank you.  I especially love the Mad Magazine cover art.  

I really, really like this concept.  I struggled to make it work, though.  However, you have something worth developing here.

Love a good word game!  Thanks -- Perhaps some color coding on the elements, so for those of us who have forgotten our chemistry, an indicator of which ones can be combined.  Excellent game though.  lovely artwork and implementation.

Interesting!  Thanks for the catch.  We put in a failsafe -- 10 turns of out-of bounds gameplay, and we usher the player to an end.  (In case of bots, etc -- we're paying for every move in the back end).  But this particular hallucination -- while kinda adhering to our rules -- broke the rules by talking with you.  We'll dig in!  

400 plays!  Thank you, Parsercomp.  

1,000 plays!  Thank you, Parsercomp.  

Cool.  Thank you -- our first game that hit 1k plays.  Thank you for all of your feedback.  I think this platform has some legs

You are welcome.  And thank you for playing

You are welcome -- and thank you for playing.  Appreciate the feedback you sent

Lots of great feedback.  We will build more in this genre for sure -- with more complexity -- more for adults.  

Thanks! -- Glad you enjoyed

Heard that itch has been shadow banning/making unsearchable all NSFW games -- though they appear to be concerned about the ones involving S.E.X.  Last audit has some risque stuff  -- but after seeing what else is on here, I don't feel like it belongs with the others.  I gave it that tag because 1) one of the puzzles involves a pirate drinking spectral (imaginary) spirits; and 2) sometimes the pirates get into fights.  Let me know if you object to taking off the tag.  

Cool! -- let's do that.  We're almost ready to release our beta of the autoring environment . . basically a no-code IF system.  A more in-depth mystery seems like a natural place to start.  Each chapter takes less than 60 min to author . . I'll ping you to see if you are interested in a wrtiing session.  M

This kills me!  I have spent so much time adding guardrails so that exact thing would not happen!  Cannot seem to find the solution. . . working on it, still.

Thank you, daughter of mine

Loved Deadline.  Classic.
