I am having some trouble with the internet browser in the game. It's always saying "error" and won't display anything but a white screen. 

I don't know if this is intented or not, but I can't see anything in the game that would indicate that it's supposed to be this way. Even the tutorial prompts you to use the browser, but I can't because it doesn't work. I just skipped that part of the tutorial but it would suck if I need the browser later in the game and I get stuck because of this issue.

I loved this. It was an absolute blast to play. Really clever puzzles and good story. I'm sad it ended so abruptly though, I will anxiously be awaiting Day 2.
