You've got some nice jokes, and damn do you love trolling the player. My mouse isn't that precise so this was quite a challenge!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I like the basic gameplay elements. Sort of a hybrid between action and point-and-click adventure. Though I do think you could have done more with the character's movement, like put some obstacles in the way. As it is, his movement is no more than a visual distraction as you try to hunt down those keys!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Also, the entire &quot;10 seconds&quot; theme didn't factor into the gameplay in any way. It factored into the story, but the story was so simple that it hardly mattered (except as a joke that made me laugh!). Could've been more creative with that! ;)"},{"author_name":"fluffypillow","author_uid":"26652","time":"Aug 26, 2013 @ 8:28pm","epoch":1377548580,"text":"Good ideas and funny levels, but those DAMN KEYS :)"},{"author_name":"syawqy","author_uid":"15312","time":"Aug 27, 2013 @ 7:56am","epoch":1377589860,"text":"this is fun and I'm glad I can play till the end"},{"author_name":"Broxxar","author_uid":"22132","time":"Aug 27, 2013 @ 4:12pm","epoch":1377619620,"text":"The reaction time puzzles were the best (Random key placement,  clicking the pop out books).\r<br\/>\r<br\/>A bit of a bummer ending though."},{"author_name":"nikkesen","author_uid":"27549","time":"Aug 28, 2013 @ 1:00am","epoch":1377651300,"text":"The click box for the flying keys is rather small, but otherwise it's a fun little game with good mechanics."},{"author_name":"Darien","author_uid":"7355","time":"Aug 28, 2013 @ 1:04am","epoch":1377651540,"text":"It's fun to see a new take on the theme.

I liked the old-school children's game feel to some of the puzzles.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I did find the flying keys to be more challenging than you had probably intended though. even when I'd hone in on one key and track it's movements, there seemed to be some randomness in their bounce trajectory, plus they were small enough that it required incredibly fast fingers. But I did make it all the way to the end, and I'm glad I did. \r<br\/>\r<br\/>Honestly, if you wanted to do so, I can see this turning into a very decent kid's game for tablets\/smartphones, if you made the story and difficulty a bit more kid-friendly."},{"author_name":"JimmyDelaney19","author_uid":"26384","time":"Aug 28, 2013 @ 3:32am","epoch":1377660420,"text":"I love the mood\/charm of this game.
