I love this game so much!

Fun little game and cool take on the theme! A shame there aren't many levels.

Very cool idea and nice minimal, but effective graphics. Nice job!

beat it, fun concept!

Great little project. Love the take on programming, and the take on the theme.

That was a very different kind of game, loved the concept though!

Nice twist on the concept, visuals fit the gameplay very much. Well done

Cool idea. Shame it is so short.

It looks pretty, especially a little man! I'm 2d artist and didn't understand the game at all(( Thank you for web version!

The idea is great and very original although not very accessible as non-programmers will have a hard time understanding what your game is about. There are only three puzzles which is a bit short but i liked the concept.

Interesting take on the theme, fun game.

It helps to be a programmer :grin:

Indeed a good example of what one stuck in a while loop would have to endure if they wanted to break out. However, I'll note that it's not very intuitive how one has to put all characters together, because C-family languages don't really care about spaces before symbols like ";", so I'd recommend either explicitly mentioning this, or just parsing the white-spaces out when checking for a solution :) If you were looking for further ideas, a perfect game update would be adding some compiler warnings, but it's true that your approach makes it feel more mysterious.

This was really cool, it kinda reminds me of Baba is You a little bit. Also I like how you're physically restricted to within the bounds of the loop block so you have to use spatial reasoning for some of these puzzles.

Nice game for programmers. Wished there were more levels.

daitse 2020-10-06 21:31

Very fun game ! Too bad it is a bit short !I'm sure you had enough time to add a few more levels :innocent:

Haha Genius!

vphyre 2020-10-06 23:51

I liked your idea haha, great for programmers. Very cool loop concept. Congratulations.

mvasko2 2020-10-07 19:22

I liked the concept, though it is targeted at a pretty specific audience :slight_smile:. Maybe it could be extended with, I don't know, some poetry?

It's a pity there aren't any more levels. Good job!

Very cool entry, right on the spot! The last level was very well done xD.

It could even be used to teach children how to program, and adults to actually read their code haha !

What tools did you use?
