Pushed the counter off the castle. The timer is a solid object, and the text is over the char. Not a problem, just... weird, y'know.

And then when I went to the very top of the map, the stone on my head disappeared when it went out of the screen. EXCEPT IT DIDN'T, when I deposited the invisirock into the castle.

And then in the end I died and slid across the floor uncontrollably until I hit the edge and stopped.

10/10 would wat again

Hi there. Moved sprite around but nothing seemed to happen, Castle on screen and writing, nothing else. Chrome/W8.1 No sounds.

Laugh out loudly when I close my eye and wait soooo long time for the "beep" then open to find something block my way. Very funny!

That was really intriguing but I am not sure I really understood the game. Did try to close my eyes but stopped after a while. Instead of asking the player to close his eyes, maybe you should consider actually hiding display ?

An interesting idea. I ruined it for myself due to the fact that I was sure there would be some form of jump scare, so I kept my eyes open, but it still made me think about how much we rely on our vision, rather than our hearing. Furthermore, it made me think about how long it takes us to realize there is something wrong if something doesn't happen, even if we can't see it.
Well done.

Excellent idea, but I felt that things should have kicked in a bit sooner. Got bored after a few trips and only re-played after reading the comments!
