This is really just a proof of concept that something like this could be done in SVG + Javascript (apparently it can), but it might briefly entertain a certain kind of person.
Longer-term it's supposed to be a logic puzzle game, which may explain why most of the development time was taken up getting side-tracked and solving logic puzzles and drafting terrible stories to go in the left-hand panel.
Thanks to everyone who played (or attempted to), it probably was working, you just didn't know it because of the terrible UI. I am actually planning on developing this further, although hopefully the UI and level of polish will render the finished product unrecognisable.
The "solution" for those who are interested is to ask the "bird" to TMMN (Tell Me My Name) then to tell the "door" the symbol the bird replies with. At that point you get the fantastic ending animation.
Am I doing something wrong?
Maybe a hint about how to get past the first level would help!
