I'm very curious about this, as a Metal Gear fiend with a special fondness for the 2D MSX games as well as an occasional crossword dabbler. However the graphics don't seem to work on my system (Gentoo Linux with vanilla kernel v4.3.16 and nvidia drivers v565.77, tried running in Wine v9.22, staging and vanilla, and Firefox v134.0.1). If I flail around randomly on the keyboard I hear typing noises sometimes and ominous sneaky music and things but the screen is just pure black. It's possible I'm just missing something of course. :P
Hmmm curious! i will invesigate, do any of my other games display on your browser (they have the same export settings)? If not i can look into a linux version
Sorry it took me a few days to get back to you about this. I started playing Dogman 95 when I first received your reply here, but I got a migraine partway through and had to stop, and I've just now returned to finish it. Anyway, it worked totally fine, so I really wonder what's going on. I'm working on doing system updates right now because I'm well overdo for them, and once they finish I'll try again and see if the problem persists, in case it's due to some obscure regression in something on my system that's since been fixed. (They take a long time to do in Gentoo because you have to compile like 1600 packages from source, at least for a typical desktop/workstation environment. ;^^ )
By the way I'm almost done with updates ;^^ they've been something of a project because I went like three months without running them which is way too long. I think they're basically done now though aside from some housekeeping and things. (I feel obligated to note that Linux on the desktop isn't always this involved to maintain, just Gentoo specifically. ;^^ ) I'll let you know what happens once it's all totally done.
this dumb 5 minute game will absolutely not be worth your wait haha. let me know anyways, if it still doesn’t run on linux i can find someone smart to export a viable version for me
Yes I know, I was trying different endings... There was no BOOM ending even if the guard is down. The deactivation code must be that certain letter. Tried T, D, etc, but it seems that the only possibility is to deactivate it.
10/10 This was so funny! I was not expecting this to be as good as it is. The little details of knocked out guards turning to ZZZ and the joke about a letter being otherwise occupied. This was really fun!
Everything here was also super smooth to play and looks really nice!

"Or perhaps you're just a contrarian" got me
(In all honesty though, extremely enjoyable 20 minutes of my life)
this was absolutely peak gaming, every part of it was peak. no notes.
So good, love all the gameplay switch ups. And the most accurate European lore I've seen from a game in a while.
An absolutely brilliant game.
Showed some gameplay, and added some critique in the hopes that this game gets to the next level.
I really enjoyed this one, reminds me of the flash era. Good times!
Truly a game ever made
NOW THIS IS CREATIVE!! Enjoyed every moment <3
pretty damn wild, I liked the heaven ending

Won't work for me (I am on Google chrome).
FUN!!!! It didn't blast off when the timer reached 0:00 though, kinda expected a BOOM ending haha!
Couldn't finish 'Across 11' as a certain letter was missing. Any tips?
(*Spoilers*)
You can press SPACE behind the guards to knock them out
Yes I know, I was trying different endings... There was no BOOM ending even if the guard is down. The deactivation code must be that certain letter. Tried T, D, etc, but it seems that the only possibility is to deactivate it.
Haha ah yes the boom ending works now

This is excellent.
what a concept!!! 10/10
100% amazing, holy h*ck, i iove this and you so much
Absolutely masterful. The profound melancholy of the king of europe ending...
Pioneering, truly.
THERE ARE SO MANY ENDINGS HAHA!
5/5, can be better if the TAB overview can be permanent and a quick retry / restart
man this is something
Awesomely Awesome
I wish i was joking when I say that I left my friends at the pub to come home and play this.
Best crossword I've ever completed.
