    Not a bad concept for a game... only really works for people interested in coding/videogame development, and I'm here for that.... but the current iteration feels more like a tech demo to me than a fully finished game.

    Literally unplayable. Controls are hardcoded to key values, not the keys. You can edit the controls, but only to add keys and not remove them. In desperation, I installed an english keyboard but guess what? It only registers qwerty for the typing at the start, but not for the in game controls. Never experienced a programmer bork it so badly.
