Great job on this project! The art style and audio work really well together, creates a great atmosphere. Super impressive what you managed to pull off within the jam deadline! Rated! We’d also love to hear your thoughts on our entry if you have some time!

I really like the pixel art style and audio. At the beginning I was a bit confused of what to do in the computer, but when I understood it I enjoy the experience. Nice work!

That's awesome! For me at first it was confusing because I put wrong floppy so spend some time to figure it out, even thou I know how it works :D So probably it's better to put instruction with install to computer. And also not everyone know about go .. to comeback But other it really fun. Also loved the key sound, satisfying! Love this, great job!

I instantly got hooked and spent some time. The SFX and art are pure gold. But I had a hard time understanding what happened once I got on the PC when I sent the file for verification.

@nursultan @nesmon @kredit: Thank you for the kind words!

@pazio-di-dante: Those key sounds are from my own keyboard! !>Fair point about `go ..` although you can also use `go /`. Perhaps there should've been a specific hint if you just did `go`.

@slyz: Glad you enjoyed the art and sound! !>After successfully sending a file you can talk to the AI ball to see if it met requirements.

The retro computer interface was really fun to use, and both the sound effects and visuals were excellent! A little more guidance would help, though—it took me quite a while to figure things out.

The game looks very nice, I love the art. I got lost few time in the beginning struggling to understand what I am supposed to do, but i managed to finish it. I really liked the game, good job!

I didn’t quite figure out what I was supposed to do on the computer (likely due to my limited English), but I’m incredibly impressed by the game’s visuals. And the audio is simply superb—the key presses feel really satisfying, and the ambient sound is beautiful without ever becoming tiresome.

What a great complete package. Visuals, gameplay, music and theming. It had everything in it. Took me a while to figure out what it allowed to do and what it didn't. The goals was a bit abstract and the send command wasn't explained very clearly. is a data file or enc the final product? idk cause I sent both types of files and I guess I completed the game. For a more complete game I might want a bit more clarity and a bit more complexity rather than more confusion and with simplicity. Maybe there was a way to figure out what all the different file-endings did and such but it didn't come to me. GG
