I liked the concept of making a "decipher simulator", It'll be interesting if you do a program where you can cipher or decipher an input sentence.

P.S.Now I'm triggered about the narrative-puzzle with this mechanic.

i’ll try make a de/cipher program too! good way to exercise encryption and yeah the narrative’s much bigger than i’d have time for in a gamejam lol
