I absolutely LOVED the art style. Makes me think of a quirky animated short played on cartoon network circa 1998. the idea is pretty clever overall and good execution. Nice game."},{"author_name":"stephenhaney","author_uid":"39284","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 4:52am","epoch":1418100420,"text":"Very cool art and setting.

Pressed all keys (including space), clicked everywhere, nothing! I refreshed, and the second time, I pressed space and the game started. But then, I had no idea how to play so I pressed all keys again, clicked around but nothing happened. You might wanna let us know how to play your game :) Anyway, I reloaded the game a third time and finally I could move around. I laugh a lot, this is quite different and funny to play. I agree with Timtipgames though, it's a bit frustrating."},{"author_name":"Sharky","author_uid":"44294","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 5:40am","epoch":1418103300,"text":"Beautiful art style, and great use of the theme, but it does get old rather quick"},{"author_name":"jrap","author_uid":"35879","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 6:18am","epoch":1418105580,"text":"oh my god"},{"author_name":"mahalis","author_uid":"46778","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 6:20am","epoch":1418105700,"text":"Beautiful artwork, good sound, and a really clever interpretation of the theme.
