The music is awesome, the text is cool, I gave up quickly on the first one, and I also used the menuitem() as a reference for my own game. Great game!


Excellent!


Supercool idea and execution! Great job.


I think you should stop the cryptogram wobbling about. It makes it quite uncomfortable to play,

I love this. Your menu systems and UI all look fantastic and your interpretation of Bill Wurtz's music is awesome.


@dredds It's supposed to be the card that it's on moving slightly up and down. Sorry that it makes you feel uncomfortable! I'm making it static.


Thanks!

I am very impressed by the control scheme you've come up with. It's really quick to navigate and enter the solution letters.


I thought I recognized that music playing in the background... Love these Bill Wurtz covers! The game is also really neat, but by the 6th puzzle I was just brute-forcing the three letter words. I'm not really great at it...


@TheV360 Not many 3-letter words start with A. Also, try filling in words synonymous with the theme wherever they fit...


A feature request: I'd like a menu option to start playing at a random unsolved cryptogram.


I really like the interface! The limited controls force creative solutions! I played through 31 puzzles--so good! Good work! Oh! And the use of the font, too! Good job! EDIT: And the quotes! So good!


La de da de da de da de day oh
La de da de where did all the good times go?
La de da de la da dee dum dom La da de day
When will you come back home?

@JWinslow23 Puzzle 45 "WRITEEN" should be "WRITTEN".

@WaterSplash Thank you for telling me! I'm glad I still have the original compressor on hand, haha. I've just updated the BBS and itchio versions.
