Absolutely loved the music on headphones, great atmosphere! I'm not sure if I understood all the mechanics - pulling words out of the aether or answering the question didn't do anything, but I decoded all the human talk and finished the game anyway :)
Nice to see another Gosu submission! I really liked the puzzle aspect of the game. I completed all the text (I think) but couldn't figure out how to escape. Very cool game!
Please compile for other platforms. Pretty please.
Really interesting concept, I enjoyed it very much! Also loved the mood set by the abstract graphics and music. Well done!
I didn't finish it though, having to wait for a whole minute for each word got tedious pretty quickly. :/
Thanks for playing everyone!
TackoramaLtd: Packaging up Ruby applications for non-Windows systems has been problematic, though I might look again for a solution.
Waterman7: No need to wait to find words, the once a minute ability is simply there to help if you are stuck. It it is possible to figure out words without using it.
Can't launch it, getting `This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.`. Windows 7 x64.
I only get runtime error for windows
well it took me 3 rooms to get a pen and paper out, most unique game I have played yet
Cool music, but about the mechanic, didn't quite get it...
Fantastic use of ciphers as a game mechanic. Absolutely love it, just wish there was more.
Really fun game, quite an atmosphere you create with the music and the story. I was really disappointed when it ended, I could have gone on for a few more "times".
This is a great way to tell the story. Having to decypher all the things being said gets you quite hooked to the story.
Innovative game - certainly different for a Ludum Dare. Enjoyed playing it and got to the end!
Great! Just like cynicalmonkey i took out pen and paper. That were some really unique minutes of the LD for me!
This is an awesome idea! I enjoyed figuring out the puzzle. Great work!
