Unstable Array by Sikowny
You play as a robot taking care of a Data Array.
every room is a cell in the Array and almost every room has some system in it.
the systems keep breaking...
you must navigate the array and using your console, fix all the broken systems
if too many things are broken for too long, game over!!
CONTROLS:
Move - ARROWS
Open Terminal - SPACE
Open/Close Console - ~ (tilde)
commands to Fix Terminals:
'fix address'
'fix syntax'
'fix exe'
(dev note: Sorry, I did not realize how hard this game can be! You may be handed some really bad RNG!)

Nice game, took me a while to learn it but at last I managed to fix some stuff; the only thing that bothered me a lot was that everything started to go unstable too fast and the rooms were faraway from each other so I think maybe it was a little bit too hard, or maybe it was just hard for me. Good job! :D

The game actually crashing is an interesting and immersive concept, kind of meta, but it's sometimes hard to know what to do.

I think some sort of map would've been great to get a sense of how far away rooms are, so that you could decide better between walking and using the goto command. Always a fan of the meta game crashing itself element though, and I did manage to win!

I remember those days, writing commands in DOS. It's a nostalgia thing, but hard to play really. More of a sim with an idea for the retro vibe. This game could exist even without the visuals (like text/command adventure). Good vibrations here, man).
