Low Level Hero (alpha)
A downloadable game for Windows and Linux
Low Level Hero (alpha) is a programming-puzzle game with only two commands: copy-paste and search-replace. It is inspired by TIS-100 from Zachtronics and the sed utility from Linux.
Extra features:
- manual that unlocks various syntax elements as you solve levels (PDF planned)
- in-game level editor to create / update / delete your custom levels
- color themes: Dark (default) and Godot
This is an alpha version, so you may encounter some bugs! I would greatly appreciate your feedback. This is my first ever game, not including my previous GMTK jam entry.
Consider joining my Discord server for game dev discussions and custom level sharing and / or my Twitch channel for live streams.
Change log v.0.1.1:
- [Feature] Toggle button to see the expected output from a level
- [Change] Manual rephrasing, mainly how I (input) works, but also comments
- [Improvement] Comments and empty lines that aren't jumped to from code, are now not counted towards the solution stats. The stats now include the instruction count too.
- [Change] some levels were renamed
- [Improvement] I and O can also be lowercase, to not need the shift key that often
- [Bugs] Fixed dev stats for the 'echo' level, solution used 1 register not 2. Fixed typo in the playlist levels. Removed 'R' prefix from register names.

Cool game!
Great start! I had a blast playing later levels and some unofficial (or not yet official?) levels given to me on discord. Current set of levels has a bit of a low difficulty for me, but I imagine for an average player it can be a good thing.
If the game gets some polish and more levels, especially on the harder side, it will be a great addition to anyone's puzzle collection.
pretty neat so far! the puzzles are ok, the language still has some quirks (can't use spaces anywhere), but is pretty good at what it does.
Thank you for playing it! I'll allow spaces in copy-paste command in the next update. EDIT 18.09: try it now :)
