Then metaphorical puzzle games appeared, some were good. Then many people made metaphorical puzzle game but without real puzzle. And i'm happy when i play a good one, yours is good. I liked the fact that clues lies in quotes i like that there isn't one mecanics over and over but more discover new mecanics by experimenting each level. graphics are great the eyes mecanic is clever. Too bad there isn't more chapters.

It's very hard to guess what to do, even when you read 25 times the quote. I had to retry countless time the first level. Then I look to the solution... And I learned about a new control I didn't know before! I've done that with each level until I reach the point where I couldn't even complete the level, even with the solution... Anyway still a good catch, but puzzles might be improved in a more logical way (just my humble opinion)."},{"author_name":"teamrocketbear","author_uid":"42382","time":"Aug 28, 2014 @ 3:31am","epoch":1409196360,"text":"This was an interesting one. I liked the exposure to quotes, it almost felt a little bit like an old-school 90s education game, in the way it matched a puzzle with a lot of playing around, to some literature content.\r\rThe touch of silliness to the eyeball characters really helped it from feeling too heavy, especially since the puzzles took a lot of playing around to figure out. \r\rThe classical music loop and the selection of quotes felt a little at odds with the lighter feel I got from it, but overall a neat one. Good job."},{"author_name":"SaintHeiser","author_uid":"14848","time":"Aug 28, 2014 @ 5:14am","epoch":1409202540,"text":"Interesting theme interpretation.

I like the pace, and as others have mentioned, the music.\r\rI had trouble solving some of the puzzles, even with the solutions. For instance, on the second puzzle, I had to continually perform the solution for a while before it clicked in. I would have given up if I didn't already know what to do. I couldn't pass puzzle 3, no matter what I did (even reading the solution).\r\rDespite my technical troubles, I think it's a really awesome idea and offers something truly different and worthwhile."},{"author_name":"Franklins Ghost","author_uid":"35424","time":"Aug 30, 2014 @ 7:30am","epoch":1409383500,"text":"Great use of quotes for the clues to solving the puzzles, was an interesting experience."},{"author_name":"Pierrec","author_uid":"1874","time":"Aug 30, 2014 @ 2:39pm","epoch":1409409240,"text":"I love this idea!

The quotes could be understood in a few different ways and the players had to both understand what YOU want it to mean, and perform it the way you intended to...\r\rAlso there was no real connection between the puzzles (gameplay wise): in the first you can't make them touch eachothers, but in the second you have to. Pretty confusing for the player.\r\rAlso I had to look at the solution for 2 levels, and even then it wasn't clear what I was supposed to do."},{"author_name":"commanderstitch","author_uid":"14366","time":"Sep 8, 2014 @ 2:46am","epoch":1410144060,"text":"Good mood, strange eyeballs, weird complicated puzzles.
