HellShell is a linux-lite text game that I never finished. Something interested can still be done with it, and all the tech is already in place. Someday perhaps...
At the moment there are only 7 levels. There's also a sandbox mode for exploring all the capabilities. Enjoy!

- This is a regular AS3 input TextField so most editing tricks on your OS should work, the ones I listed are just the ones I found, there's most likely more.
Others:
- F1 to F5: Switch between five shell instances
Saving:
- Export your drive as a JSON file with "backup -s"
- Load a JSON file into your drive with "backup -l"
- Type "save" to save a local backup -> this is automatically done every time you complete a challenge or call "quit"
