Simple but fun

Wow. Is that text box? Impressive!

Brilliant. A pure expression of the theme. Played it to the end, nice job!!

That eye test killed me!!!

Great interpretation of the theme! It was fun for a while but then the controls kept me from playing more. PS: My eyes are OK!

I lol'ed because it's just simply beautiful.

Very Nice! I like the ascii style

Loving how you used nothing but a text box and javascript!

Nice use of a textbox!

An interesting twist on Text-based games, looking like a Roguelike but playing completely differently. I found myself dying a few times because it looks like you can jump high, but you cannot actually just very far (the ASCII characters are much taller than wide).

The text cursor in the bottom right of the text box was slightly distracting, although I bet there is no way to turn that off.

Well done for an innovative interpretation of Minimalism. :-)

I enjoyed to text and collecting the $$$ to start the game. If you continue to develop this, on Windows Chrome at zoom 100% the textfield would produce a scroll bar until I widened it.

It's really neat to see an ASCII platformer. It was a little hard to tell where you started, maybe if you always started on the bottom-left? And then it was a little hard to coordinate running and jumping at the same time. Great job!

There was some seriously good platforming design on show here, very old school, but you definitely knew what you were doing. I liked that.

Impressively fun! Extra kudos for making it run on a text editor! :D

very cool that you got this all running in a textbox, though I think there may be something wrong with my eyes cause I found myself losing track of my player a lot(maybe you're even poking fun of that with the eye test?). Still had a lot of fun with this one though, very well done!

ASCII platformer. Love it :) Reminded me of Jumpman for the C-64.
