The idea behind this game was pretty good, and I can see where you were going with it. In my opinion though, having the ones and zeros everywhere was a bit strange, and you could have made it with random lines of code instead. Overall, a fun game, and I would like to see the game with some core bugs and stuff fixed.
Please go and rate my game too, as I am far from the required 20. Thanks!
Hey
This is such an interesting concept. I would absolutely buy this to play properly. Great job. Love the "bug fixing" Nice work!
Please can you play my game. I'm looking to gain more feedback on what to improve on.

Nice game with a really good story
Haha the sword animation is great. Good work.
That was really good! Its a good story especially the twist at the end. Something I found quite funny is that I managed to jump over the "impossible jump" because of how ridiculously high you jump.
Good Job!
oh oops 😂😂
I'd have to go back and play around with the platformer controller after the jam 😂😂
Thank you 🙌
Really nice game. Good job!!
Cool game! I really liked the story and the code mechanic!
This game has a very interesting story, I did feel kind of bad for killing the princess, but it's alright, the princess wasn't real, or was she? Awesome game, well done!
story and narrative is great, i like metanarrative games, but i think gameplay could be better, like movement and jumping not very polished, you could make jump more proportional make speed acceleration/decceleration etc etc read book “game feel” by steve stink, its only available in english, but it contains a lot of useful information, also you can check corgi engine for ready platformer controller with stuff you need to make player character that would be nice to control
Very clean concept work. Good implementation of the mechanic.
You have presented a unique concept in this game. It kept the experience enjoyable throughout the play session

Existential Crisis incoming! That was a great twist on the theme, and the gameplay elements that complimented it worked really well.
Wow. Cool ending! Also good story! Good work
What a cool, creative idea! A really fun game, that could definitely be expanded on in the future, there's real potential here :)
the idea of creating a real bug world is cool. you really did a brainstorm on this one.
Hi. Your game is cool. I liked your game and your idea!
This was a great idea! One of my favorite "realm switch" games I've scene in the jam. Love that I'm fixing the bugs to advance the game.
Some audio would have added some extra spice, but good work!
Great game
and it would be even better if was there audio
