Really cool game tho, clever puzzle mechanics, and stuff I didn't actually know you could do before (is that mosi functionality?).
I did manage to break it at one point, during step seven I got stuck staring at the mirror, but I was able to just refresh and start again easily enough.
The 'Staring into the Mirror' step is not Mosi functionality no. I coded it up myself with some javascript and was pleasantly surprised by how it all worked out. It wasn't too hard and can be copied easily, if you fancy giving it a go.
I was thinking about making a game as a 'tutorial' for how to do it, as that functionality might open up a lot of other gameplay ideas for others. I've been looking into how to do it in Bitsy and, while it's a little more complicated, I think I can probably do it there too.
Sorry about having to restart. Do you remember how you got stuck in the mirror, by any chance?
oh wow, that's really cool hack then! I think people would be interested in how to incorporate that stuff, it probably opens up a lot of options.
I think I must have moved up or something after clicking the first candle, basically I got stuck in state where I could either move to turn the candle off, or use the other mechanic, but I could only alternate between the candle being on and off, not return to the room. I was probably being too enthusiastic!
Ah, interesting. I'll have a play around and see if I can find what caused it. As I'm asking it to do something it's not really meant to, there are weird outcomes sometimes. Thanks for letting me know.
I did assume others have done the same hack, though I can't really see them at the minute. I could have swore Borksy had it, though I can't see it.
Interestingly, I was playing one of my old favourite Bitsy games today, and was surprised to see that had mouse movement: https://linda-nd.itch.io/day-in-the-life
Looking at the Bitsy changelog you can see Adam talk about it at version 3.6 : "bugfix: remove broken mouse controls." Maybe it was causing more trouble than it was worth. Recreating it to how it was would probably be a lot of work, but doing something similar to my simpler method might be cool. I wrote a little devlog about it if you want to understand it a bit more.

Oh no, that ending!

Hello! Thanks for playing and the kind words!
