    I had so much fun with this.. the writing is incredible! I found myself fully immersed in this environment. The dialog was great and painted such a vivid image of the world around us. Had a bit of a "Papers Please" vibe to it which fit perfectly with the setting.

    I think I found all the endings? (4 in total) and had no major bugs a long the way. One small thing to mention is I sometimes didn't get any audio when trying to perform scans, or check the PIDA manual. Had to back up a page then try again and it usually worked the second time. Not the biggest of deals though.

    Great job! Recommend this to anyone who enjoys dark dystopian stories. 

    The game seems very promising and I love the aesthetic! Sadly, the go back button within the database does not seem to work for me so I could not complete the day 1.

    Hi there, thanks for the comment. When you try to click “go back” does it work when you click the actual word or does it not do anything? I want to try to troubleshoot this as quickly as possible.

    When I tried to go back the actual words wouldn't highlight, so I couldn't click it at all (if that makes sense)

    Thanks for clarifying! I had a few other people test it and it worked for them. So, since the buttons were working for you up to a specific point, a temporary connection issue may have interrupted things on the browser’s end. It's also possible that this issue was caused by me making changes to the page/re-uploading stuff at the exact time you were playing. If you’re able to, try refreshing the page or opening it in another browser or an incognito window; this can sometimes reset any problems with clickable elements. Also, certain browser extensions like ad blockers or privacy tools can interfere with links, so disabling those briefly might help.

    Thanks for the help! I gave it another go and this time I had no issues and was able to complete day 1. I really love the game so far!

    What happened to day 1?

    Hey, can you be more specific with the issue you’re experiencing? Things are working on my end but clearly others are experiencing issues so I’d love to get to the bottom of this asap. 

    Oh, sorry, I didn't click the start button properly.

    No worries! I know the buttons in this game are a bit annoying to deal with but I'm glad you figured it out :) In the future I'm gonna avoid making buttons where you have to click the actual word since I know you aren't the only one who was confused by this.
