But I definitely agree that the ending could be more polished, as it\u2019s not particularly enjoyable at the moment.\n\n> only thing missing was actually telling players which button is interact\n\nAhah, the tutorial does say to press space to close the cracks, but it\u2019s true that you need to have found the space key already in order to access the tutorial :D I\u2019ll add it to the description.","format":"md","likes":0,"spam":"N"},{"id":733808,"author_name":"Rocketcat241","author_uid":"rocketcat241","epoch":1633471915,"text":"Fun game.
