Found this game quite recently. I really like the concept behind the game. Functions quite similar to that of a linux terminal. This game does have quite the potential.
For some reason it gives me a weird papers please vibe. Creative. A saving function would be nice (unless I just don't see it lol).
Hi I found your game and was enjoying it very much, but I'm on ubuntu linux and I ran into a pretty severe issue.
first of all, I'm getting double keypresses for enter and backspace, but that was fine.
The real problem occurred when I got to the scripting terminal. literally every key was double. so I couldn't play with scripts at all because typing "unlock" became uunnlloocckk and that doesn't work very well lol. So I guess I have to quit.
Loved the game tho, and the sounds and UI are awesome :)
Pretty cool idea. The scripting was pretty easy and I ended up getting about 500k before I just called it quits. I hope I'm not missing something crazy at the end, but it didn't seem like much would progress after conquering Echo. I kinda just expected to get rickrolled or something with a new anthem.
the game is pretty nice, but its sissing like a command like save and import where you could save your progress in a text file and when you open the app back up you can just go import DATE and you have it back. because rn i would need to run that thing 24/7 to get to the 1 mil thing in the shop.
Hi, we don't have much complex syntax in the game if that's what your asking about. You can only type single commands at once, so no pipes, variables etc.
I got permanently blocked from the Echo locks I tried restarting and redownloading the game but I im still block once I made it back to them is there any way I can get unblocked
The game doesn't save anything, so it shouldn't be possible for you to get locked out like that. How does this issue present itself? Does it always say the "Echo is infintely secure" message? I'm not entierly sure what you mean since echo locks don't lock you out after a set number of attempts.
I had the same thing happen to me, no matter what I put in, it doesn't unlock.
I created a script for it too, but it still didn't work. i put unlock 1 1, 1 2, 1 3, 1 5, 1 8, 1 13, 1 21, 1 34, 1 55, 1 89 for all of the numbers 1-9 but it still didn't work.
Edit: noticed that it included 0, added it to script, tried it, didnt work
Edit 2: Manually unlocked echo lock, password was 5 13, had unlock 5 13 in the script. WTF
No, it was something we did consider but didn't really have the time. Our thinking was that people wouldn't play it for very long since it was a game jam, so we decided to put more effort into polish and other features. If there's enough demand I suppose I could add a save feature in an update.
That was an interesting experience, I really loved the script editor. :) I'm always a huge fan of programming games, and I think it's quite an achievement when you are succeeding in building one of these in the short time of a jam! <3 Started a bit slow, but when one overcomes the Alpha phase, it gets much faster. Been a bit perplexed about the Echo lock though, but eh, it doesn't discount the value of your work. :) Well done! I recommended your game in one of our compilation articles about the Ludum Dare 41 as well as it's featured in the related video. :) Keep up the good work!

Here's a script that will brute force all locks if you need it:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1hXC3D5YQxw-0pFH6Xpts-Y4nJe7QeNMAvIp7hBFQzAk/...
just copy/paste the text from the doc into a new script
the game is pretty nice, but its sissing like a command like save and import where you could save your progress in a text file and when you open the app back up you can just go import DATE and you have it back. because rn i would need to run that thing 24/7 to get to the 1 mil thing in the shop.
pretty cool, loving the script element!
ok this game is cray cray
In Debian 10 Buster, when I run this game it seems to be receiving my backspace/enter keypresses twice.
Tried it on Ubuntu 18.10, didn't work because it couldn't preload ScreenSelector.so. Anyone have a fix for this?
wow this is a really cool game! i loved being able to create the scripting. very cool idea!
Hi, really a great game !
What about shell syntax?

try a different ip.
is there a save feature in the game by chance?
No, it was something we did consider but didn't really have the time. Our thinking was that people wouldn't play it for very long since it was a game jam, so we decided to put more effort into polish and other features. If there's enough demand I suppose I could add a save feature in an update.
Yes, please do
please make a save feature the game is nice i want to play it very long :)
This is a really fun game! I enjoy programming games like this, and this is probably one of my favorites!
quite annoying how the most common lock is always the one above what you have.
Good job comrade.
