Loved the game, it's a bit challenging but enjoyed beating the game it was rewarding
amazing how we come up with the same concepts but different execution though your art and levels better
nice game

Very interesting concept, a combination of programming with typing game. A bit tricky but fun. Good job!

Circumcircular OctahedronsThe input for "Ctrl" does not seem compatible with a Mac. Command+s and control+s dont seem to register as anything, and thus I can't ever execute a command. Which is a shame cause the gameplay looks really promising!

Star SlingerVery cool idea and gameplay. But the game is really hard. I had to cheese with “go go stop” to somehow deal with timings, but even then got stuck at later stages. Could have difficulty settings to be able to play without of skill of monkeytype daily player :)
Would be nice to have sounds too.

Shelter 6Wow! This was a typing game, needed to be quick! But go, go stop helped a lot! Very cool

The Loop of Reincarnationits nice to somebody else deliver on this concept better than i did and i love the ui, i just found it very difficult. i think it would help if you mentioned somewhere that you can queue up commands by commenting

while (true)Nice one! I Really liked the concept, the graphics and the UI were very smooth.
The only problem I had is that I found it extremely hard. Especially when I wanted to fastly stop and didnt have the time to type it... :,(
Nice game, well done!

Your worst enemybumped up the creativity on this one! it's kinda hard to move through levels but i had fun!

OH THIS LOOPY BUILDINGI can't figure out how to get past the second level. Is it a timing challenge? Or is there a solution I am not aware of. Because as far as I can tell it's a matter of typing really quick.

Loop GeometryAh, yeah. Sorry about that. That's something I was concerned about when making this game. I didn't know if my own ability to type would skew my sense of difficulty. But yes, your impression is entirely correct. At it's most basic, it is a timing and typing speed challenge.
If you're stuck because of this, here's a few tips:
- Type "#" to comment out a segment of code; this allows you to pre-write a command, and then delete the comment marker and save.
- Hold CTRL when using Backspace or the Arrow keys; if you use Google Docs or Microsoft Word enough, you know how this works.
- If worst comes to worst, you can type "north east", "south west", etc. to move diagonally.
- If you softlock yourself somehow, CTRL+R resets the level.
I really enjoyed it! Reminded me of Duskers, because you controlled the robot using commands. I did have trouble remembering to “save” it, since I kept thinking that pressing enter would “execute” the command, like a CLI.
