Kinda at a loss now, any hints?

*edit

Nevermind!

Now i’m trapped in the room after killing the first guardian, door wont let me out again.

Hey there! After killing the first guardian, a key should appear, which will take you outside after collecting it. After the key has been collected the first time, defeating the guardian any additional time should automatically bring you outside since you already have the key. If you're still stuck after collecting the key, that's definitely a bug I need to address. Additionally, once the battle has been triggered, there should be no way to physically move through the doorway before or after the guardian has been defeated. Hope that helps!

Thankyou! So i managed to get past it!
The first time i killed a guardian no key spawned, or, i may have shot the key, unclear, but i made sure to take a photo where i got stuck:

So my fix was to reset the game, load my save, beat the first guardian again, and this time i got a key!
Then the second guardian was immediately available (i had already ticked all the folders possible before i realized how to open the first boss), and i was able to free my brother and open the start menu and shut it down!

I still haven't found any secret doors to the top right folder though! might have a search later :)

Great game idea!

Would love to see a sequel for gbc featuring the click hand! ;)

Really cool idea.  Clever use of point and click  and top down shooter genre.  Fun to explore the computer.  The story is good too. The backgrounds with folders are a nice touch.  Looking forward to playing more. Nice work!
