OMG!:D So many funny and cute moments:D Really great animation. I don't know how did you manage to make something like this in 2 days, just wow. I like the humor, and I love the font style:D Could you please tell me what font it is?:D

But I didn't like the flow of the game, too much of a pointless clicking.

Overall, I enjoyed it immensely!

Thanks for the kind words and criticisms alike, everyone.

@laker: The font is "Amatic" by Vernon Adams. It's a free font. I agree that the flow could be better! I would've add more Easter egg animations and more obvious "hints" if I'd had time. There's almost no programming involved (just buttons in Flash and a few if statements) so I had the entire 48 hours to focus solely on art.

Really great presentation, and love the humour! The dog at the start made me laugh, and then it all just got stranger and stranger. I enjoyed watching the story unfold, and certainly didn't predict any of it.

My only complaint is that I didn't get the wear the crown at the end.

Very interesting and a nice break from all the plotless pixel-art entries. I agree that the font looked great. I also loved Teddy's little walk...

I had some trouble figuring out what to do, but really impressive!

I almost died of laughter at the scene with the fire. Odd, but in a completely hilarious way!

this was really great. a little dark at times. the animations and characters are fantastic. the sound of the cat talking was delightful.

I really wish the ending had 2 options, and I think most people who get there will know what the other one is (and it's not a happy ending either)

I will say this game is quite funny, but what makes it by far the funniest LD29 game I've played is just one thing: That dainty little walk the kid has, without that the game might have gotten a 4/5 on humor from me, but with that I wish I could give it a 6/5. Such a dainty little walk lol.
