I think it got a bit repetitive, and I felt like clicking off because I did the same thing over and over... although thats abit of a pity because I know it was meant to be to lead up to the last scene. It also didn't feel like a game because I couldn't really make any choices, there were just tasks. On the other hand, the music was good and I adore your awesome pixel style.
