Nice one sir. Simple mechanics but it works well. Short trip though. I would think in 48 hours you could have churned out a few more visuals to extend it a bit.

I liked the game, but would have been better using other format (maybe HTML5?). I was using Chrome and click+drag selects the image, so it was frustrating. Also, some puzzles would have been great additions, it didn't have any difficulty at all.
