This is more an experience than a game but a really nice one I think. Love the concept and story behind it.

I love the idea behind the story and the dual meaning used for approaching the theme \"running out of space\". The atmosphere was excellent, the story progressed really smoothly and the resolution was very impactful. My only complaint is that the final scene in order to sync with the music the text scrolling was slowed down very much and I grew bored and impatient waiting for the text to come. I would love it if that part was sped up. Everything else I felt was superb.\n\nI highly recommend this game, it is certainly more than meets the eye!\n\nTo other commenters: please do not spoil the story in your comment.\n\nTo new players: the other commenters may have given away the story, please play the game anyways to experience the story as intended by the developer.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"cheetah","author_uid":"1101334","time":"2018-08-14T19:24:23Z","epoch":1534274663,"modified":1534274663,"text":"Outstanding story and audio.

As someone who enjoyed \"I have no mouth and I must scream\", I loved this. \n  \nThe pacing was very well done, and I was very glad to hear the \"Main character's\" motivation by the end of the story. I also loved the tie-in to the theme at the very end of the gameplay section (\"Running out of space\" ended up being very creative and very dark).\n  \nIn my opinion, the audio was the star of the show here. The angry typing sounds, the low unnerving hum during the middle section of the game, and the voices helped set the mood so incredibly well. The music at the end was perfect, and the synchronization with the text made it feel like the character was talking to me using the music.\n  \nI love games like this. Games that start off with a premise, and then reveal something completely different underneath. I wish I hadn't button-mashed at the start of the game so I could have seen what the password to the system was.\n  \nAwesome game! One of my favorites so far!\n  \n","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"fullmontis","author_uid":"1002934","time":"2018-08-15T12:37:06Z","epoch":1534336626,"modified":1534336626,"text":"Well things took an unexpected turn rather quickly! I really liked the whole experience, especially the audio, very immersive. The typing sounds that really gave a strong mood in a simple way. I think that the game was a little heavy on taking control away from the player, which made me feel a little detached from what was happening on the screen, but that is probably just me. I also think the use of the theme was very original and well implemented.

I also thought that space can mean the space bar but I had no idea how to build a game around it so I am really impressed with your implementation. The sound and music are absolutely awesome (I love the voice acting a lot) and while the visual side can still be improved, the keyboard and console effects looks really good. The only problem I faced was the slight differences between my keyboard and on-screen keyboard but I don't think this problem can be fixed. Overall, the experience was really great.
