Where do I begin?
First of all, anyone who sees this, play this game. 

Amazing writing and attention to detail. This game is captivating.

I don't usually play this type of game, but you managed to include just enough 3D game elements other than the Terminal interaction, and your writing captivated me.

Cheers!

Great job. Interesting text, pleasant interaction with the terminal. So far this is the best game in this terminal reading concept that I have seen. And I've seen a lot of similar games at other jams. The text was easy and interesting to read.
