My first commands: >> ls -a >> cat help.txt >> pushd neighbors_house I got back: "pushd not found." >> cd .. I'm a total scaredy cat.
TIL pushd. I should go add that to snail. There is no bash running here, but I can promise nothing in the game is scarier than JavaScript!

#14Nice way to get me to look up your docs on how to search files! My first attempt managed to hardlock the game: for(let i=0; i<=8; i++) for(let j=0; j<=8; j++) for(let k=0; k<=8; k++) for(let l=0; l<=8; l++) ls ${i}/${j}/${k}/${l}

#15Despite the warning that it might not work on mobile, it works quite well on my iPad… that said, a few of the monster fights happened at just over postage-stamp resolution. Super fun little game.
Thanks! I don't have an iPad to test on but I'll try it out in the simulator. I assume you were using an attached keyboard? I would guess that the soft keyboard would not appear in the monster fights.

:O yeah I should fix that. That is going to create 6000 elements. I don't think your web browser would be happy.

Sadly that is exactly my case where it stopped responding. I thought it was your design goal! And I don't want to walk through the adventure again, especially after I jumped off the platforms twice.

Well I fixed it for the next person at least. It is still a bit laggier than it should be but it will no longer crash your browser. Thanks for playing!

Cute game, maybe I'll try to open the box later after I get some sleep. Not sure what I would use the terminal for, though - is basically what you're trying to do an interactive scratchpad with history?
If that's the case, I would look into Jupyter e.g., I'm not sure I get the point otherwise.

I'm honestly not sure if the web sandbox I made has enough realism to solve that puzzle though programming. There is a feature of snail that I was using to get past it.
