Thanks for coming back to the game and helping me out. I'm not sure what I missed at grzcyr 1.

Awesome little brainia - very reminiscent of the second half of a certain game, recaptured that pleasure for me. Good mix of cryptic and intuitive, clever secrets and surprising intertwined mechanics. Rewards curiosity, note-taking and allows somewhat non-linear discoveries. Well done!
Enjoying it so far! Currently a little stuck and could use a nudge.

Knowledge-based progression games are my favorite kind of game, and this one scratched all the right itches for me! It took me several hours to beat, with plenty of note taking and "aha!" moments along the way!
I did have a couple notes on what to possibly fix on future builds, but they are all super spoilery, so I will drop them into a separate link (WARNING: major spoilers for puzzles)

First look: "This is dumb."
Two minutes later: "OK there's some stuff out here, sure."
Three minutes later: "Wait, these people who are saying things..."
An hour later: "...ugh ok I'm a third of the way through the second part and now there's this whole new..."
(Still not done, but wow is this impressive so far.)
thanks for playing! glad to hear it caught your interest.
after a bit more playtesting i did release some changes- it might just be worth revisiting some places you've been, but nothing you've learned will have changed.
