Hey guys, one of the developers here.

Thank you all so much for all of your feedback! I never thought this game would become so popular.

It seems that our server is more or less overloaded right now, so AJAX requests for new levels are sometimes failing. This appears to be the cause of the bugs that some of you have experienced where levels load incorrectly or are overwritten by previous levels. Sorry about that. :-/ We will work on making the game more robust in the case of failures like this.

If you want to run the game locally, you can clone it from https://github.com/AlexNisnevich/untrusted and follow the instructions there.

welp. it's 100% dead now.

Sorry about that. That's what you get for making something really interesting and posting about it on hacker news.

I installed the latest version of this, and of Node, on my Windows computer, and I had to change "~/node_modules" to "./node_modules" in the final line of Makefile (in the "runlocal" target) - the http-server module was installed in the current directory. Otherwise it's working great; thanks!

Good catch -- I fixed the Makefile to actually go along with how http-server is installed in the README.

Confirmed the same issue on Linux

We've also been discussing it over on reddit: http://www.reddit.com/r/webdev/comments/22gxx1/untrusted_a_j...

When I exit level 1 it just re-loads level 1... is this the bug you're referring to?
