Okay, up for enter and shift for backspace? Why oh why would you ever have any desire to do this? Maybe there is some reason, but I didn't play long enough to find out. Typing the commands is fine, and this might be tolerable if you type with two fingers, I just don't see any reason to find out if I have to type something, stop, move over, hit the arrow key, then move back, type something else, move over, hit arrow.... you get the idea. You could have at least let enter and backspace function normally.

In light of the fact that I didn't play past entering the door do to the controls, I can't really judge anything except the controls and, well that is enough for me to pass on the rest.

I really like the concept, I love text based games, and I love how you try to combine that with an adventure game, however, sometimes it may be very frustrating, because there are multiple ways of phrasing something, especially if you're not even sure you can do it, so you might want to create some kind of guide which the player can ask for possible commands concerning a certain object, so it doesn't become a guessing game, a bit like an in-game walktrough, which will guide you if you're desperate, but it'll only inform you about the area you're in, or something like that

anyways, nice game
though you might want to improve it by adding nicer music, better guidance in how to play (without the description, I'd still be stuck in the first screen, because I had no clue how to progress, because the up as action button is explained later, when you already had to use it), and in-game help for when you're stuck
I like the graphics and concept
for now 3.5 stars, and rating of 3 (can't do half's for that, and if I round, I round down), try to improve for better star/rating
I'd love to see more though!

I like the idea of this game, like in the old dos days, but the problem with this is, that u have to write the exact commands... Its not enough to only write "use key with door" or smtgh like that... At this point its really frustrating, when all u got as respond is "what should I do next?".
After about 10 tries how to write the command down i gave up... I guess I would have loved the game :(

This is kind of a cool game. It's a little annoying how you have to find the right word, given you might have a large vocabulary. The music gets a little annoying after a while, but the art makes up for it. The writing is pretty good too. I thought it was interesting that you made the controls different from most games.

Overall: It's a little annoying in a few spots, but it's pretty cool.

Uh, instructions would be great. Can't click on anything. Not even the help.
