The music was nice, but overall it was a little bit simple. It's not a bad thing! It just feels like it could have used a little bit more in the game (unless more lies beyond the point I couldn't progress). Cheers for the game!"},{"author_name":"Crazi456","author_uid":"20961","time":"Apr 29, 2014 @ 2:33am","epoch":1398738480,"text":"Music was interesting!

The MSPaintyness of it doesn't hurt it because of the interesting poses the characters have and the great color pallet used.

(posting under Solifuge's account) \r\rWow, this was a really cool concept! The mood was great, and the system you use where you can't quite tell who's speaking is a really interesting narrative choice, especially in the final room. That warbly, ghost-like clarinet solo and chants in the background gave a certain pizzaz! However, I didn't feel like there was much game in your game, if you know what I mean. There was a lot of concept, but I would have enjoyed more of a challenge."},{"author_name":"hyouko","author_uid":"31859","time":"Apr 29, 2014 @ 5:21am","epoch":1398748560,"text":"Mixed feelings on this one.

The music was awesome, reminded me of gnomish music from WoW. The graphics were nice, although animations would've been appreciated. There's also some bugs: I was able to levitate in multiple places by holding space down, and I had to stop playing because when going to a room, the player character never appeared on the screen.\r\rKeep up the good work! :)"},{"author_name":"MidCry","author_uid":"21379","time":"Apr 29, 2014 @ 6:08am","epoch":1398751380,"text":"Neat but Beautiful graphic ... but a little bit confusing"},{"author_name":"Hayawi","author_uid":"20256","time":"Apr 29, 2014 @ 6:39am","epoch":1398753240,"text":"Kind of ended abruptly, but other than that, the mood was awesome"},{"author_name":"theengineers","author_uid":"37408","time":"Apr 29, 2014 @ 1:29pm","epoch":1398777840,"text":"Beautiful art.
