Really creative idea, but the commands are a bit unclear. Nothing tells you that "ball" costs two commands nor that "clear" recovers the lost command amounts. I think not outright telling the player that "ball" can pick up coins is fine since it's easy and instinctive to assume that when you notice you can't fit, but everything else needs more clarity. Other than that, the concept and execution are great!
I thought adding commands to create objects and solve puzzles was a really creative idea and made the game unique. One thing I would suggest is adding clearer instructions at the beginning to help players understand how the commands work and what they need to do. I also think making it a little easier to control where objects spawn would help a lot.
Once I figured out how to play, it was an entertaining game! There were a few things that could improve the experience, namely better instructions on how the commands operate and a more explicit goal given at the beginning. For controls, I found it a little frustrating that you aren't able to look behind you and also that when you spawn things like boxes or balls, they spawn based on the direction of your character, not where your mouse is pointing. It would be fine for it to spawn from where your character is looking if it was easier to tell where exactly that was. Great job!
Loved the Idea for this game. typing out the boxes each time was a bit tiresome, wish their were some more ball puzzles to blend with the box ones. I also wanted to point out that you can end the game without actually getting to the end as the end command is always available.

Love the creative idea but can’t figure out how to use the commands!
