I see! That probably explains my struggle. The white lines did not move at all for me, in any level. I'm playing in chrome, on a windows pc.

1. What confused you in the first few rounds?

I don't think anything was really "confusing". Sometimes I was not super sure what card would be most useful, but I think figuring out good combos is part of the challenge.

Maybe a small glossary would help: I remember not quite knowing what one of the boss rules meant because it referenced some stock term I was not familliar with - however, after the first trade in that round I understood the mechanic which then became obvious. I think it was the one where your trades are locked. I thought I could not sell for 3 seconds, when it actually meant I auto-sell after 3 seconds.

1. What was fun, and what felt frustrating or unfair?

Overall the whole game was fun - I especially enjoyed when the first "breaking news" popped up. I got a smile on my face because a bank went under and I made some good profits on my short.

The boss that doubles the target felt intimidating - but as I tackled the round and won it, that felt very satisfying too. 

1. How far did you get, and would you play another run?

I did play a couple of runs and ended my last one in round 16 or 17. I did not loose, but got tired and took a break. (Just bc of time of day, nothing to do with the game)

-- Overall a very fun game, thank you for making and sharing :) 

I'm at level 6 at this point, just by experimenting around.

Are the gauges supposed to change during play? If so, i have encountered a bug. If not, then how can I tell what I need to do in order to say move the gauge to the left?

This looks cool and seems interesting, but for some reason i can not figure out what my actual goal is. I kinda randomly got the first level and i keep redoing it to try to understand the win condition, but no luck yet. Any hints?

That was fun

1. Where did you get stuck or confused?

I thought everything was pretty clear. The only slight pause I had, is when I found the cable in the last room, and it did not tell me where to put it. Of course, the labels above the ports show where it should go, so I figured it out.

2. Best moment? Most boring one?

It is very satisfying (I think the sounds do a lot of work here) if you verify correct cables and even more so if you find the wrong one. I was only a bit dissapointed that it was over so quickly.

3. Anything else you would change?

Make it actually a million cables. The game is fun and has potential, but it I wish that it was way longer, giving me a huge datacenter with one wrong cable, to spend hours verifying following and finally finding and fixing the problem. Kinda like tidy up the arcane library but for IT guys.

I love this. Still working on my stamp collection...

The game loads to 100% and then nothing happens. :( Tried different browsers, too. (Chrome, Edge)

The confession at the end, when he says maybe if he could rewind time, he would do it differently made me think there is a way to do it differently, too - but then I figured it's probably just to underline the theme of "rewinding".

Maybe double check and do some backspaces before entering something. I had the issue that sometimes there was a line break before the text i put in, i believe that caused the same issue for me.

Oh, one small thing: One of the images of the cracked dam still has "Kruger" written on it. Confused me for a bit, but after finishing, I read another comment that mentioned the name change, which explains it

At first I was a little put off by the simple graphics of the office, but once i had the first articles on the table I was hooked. It was fun to piece together what happened, the game design is well executed, with nice "aha"-moments when something finally clicks and you make a connection. Lore and World Buidling were great too, I really feel like i have uncovered a piece of history now that i finished the game. And there is still stuff that I will think about for a while, in terms of unexplained (or not discovered by me) events in the mountain.

Awesome Work! Loved it!

Just wait a bit after clicking the button.

Hello! First of all this is the most amazing Tileset i ever cam across! I am so happy to have found it - it is pretty much everything you need to make any room you want :) Awesome stuff!

I have one small question. I am looking for a tile to fit a 1 block wide wall top. (The ones that cover the usally white wall tops.) I can fine one that is closed left and one that is closed right (as you can see on the right side of the image) but i can not find one to cover just the one block width and has the black line on both sides - am i just missing the piece, is there another way to set this up so it looks correct? I saw you do it with another wall in one of the demo pics so i am sure it can be done and i am just missing something.

Hope you can help me, but either way, have an amazing day and stay safe :)
