Check the source for instructions: ctrl+enter will follow a link character, esc moves back one room, ctrl+shift+enter creates a room. So cool B)

Is it usable on mobile?

People are editing the js file to bypass checks lol (like overwriting cells with links in them)

Really cool game, just had a chat with a few people in the first sub-room :p

Ah-hah. You may have been one of the anonymous two people I was chatting to :)

Were you the person who was trying to claim a piece of territory as their own?

Fascinating social experiment: when faced with a blank slate, what do humans do? Some converse, but others decide they need to claim a piece of that slate as solely theirs...

Late reply -- yes that was me :p

It was truly fun, with the right creativity it seems so easy to make something simple but addictive.

By the first chat-room, did you mean the rabbit hole that opens if you always open the first letter? Because this thing is still going and have gotten surprisingly interesting.
camtarn
Oh, wow.

None of that was there when I posted.

I got to the milestone that said "YOU ARE ONLY 1% OF THE WAY THROUGH" and stopped...

The first room is obviously already filled. Each character formatted as a link is a door to a subroom : CTRL+ENTER to go to this room. ESC to go back. If you find some white space, you can type a character which will be unformatted. Move cursor to an unformatted character and use CTRL+SHIFT+Enter to make it a link to a new empty room.

What the fuck am I looking at?

User-contributed content, and a site operator who either endorsed these beliefs and/or believes in unmoderated free speech and/or is altogether unaware. Seems likely they’re aware, since they’re the submitter of the post, but @aehtyb, FYI if not!
vntok
The expressed volition of an international crowd brought together by a free uncensored Internet that doesn't incentivize good behaviour vs trolling.
dang
The internet.

I don't see any reason to attribute that to the submitter, though they may need a lesson in how much moderation work it is to host user-generated content.

I thought this was an autostereogram adventure game and spent the first 10 seconds cross-eyed.

This was the most fun emergent web experience I've had in awhile. RIP Uppercase C
