Theme interpretation
My first idea was to make a simple 2d platform game using Phaserjs to learn how to build games because it's my first try. Unfortunately, I soon realized that it needs some time to learn the framework, of course, and based on my University schedule I have to deliver some exercises and with that, I said not to participate because I don't have free time at all. Just yesterday I came with the idea to build something just for participation because I really wanted to do it, and a simple text adventure with a lot of ifs and else, a small story somewhere in space, written in vanilla Javascript was just perfect.

Got stuck on the riddle. Always fun with a text adventure though! Would've been nice if the text input reset each time you progressed.

I loved the intense music! And I also appreciate seeing another text adventure like mine.

I filed a few issues and sent a few PRs on GitHub. The beauty of open-source, eh?

Thank you very much. I already wrote a comment on the first pr. I will finish it after my course. Text adventure is really a nice type of game to completely lost in your imagination. Thank you for your effort and time.

Hi! Always happy to see another text adventure game. :-)

A couple pointers. It would be smoother gameplay if the input textbox cleared after hitting return. And I like that you included music but looping the same track feels a little repetitive to me. Maybe play it at the start and then fade out after some time.

I tried to go south to the “3 questions” but couldn’t figure out what to do after typing “ready”.

Glad you decided to enter!

HI , Thank you for your points !! I will fix the issues after my exams for my university.

Clear the input text box
Clear the main text box above to see only the current part of the story.
Fade out and or add sound effects that correspond the moving of the player in the current position of the room.

- After the 'ready' part you just answer every question. I have included in the bottom of the page all the steps just for a quick test. For example type '3'.

I am very new so i am trying to be better.

Thank you for your instructions . Have a great day.
