I'm not sure I truly understood this. However, what was with the characters moving after I pressed right?

Game should be faster, I want to try if there is any way to not get shot but it take too much time. It feels like all movement is automatic.

hm, avast stops me from downloading, says is a virus in the file, or from the source. you may want to look into that.

Unfortunate. Don't really see there's anything I can do other than assure you that it's a false positive. All that's in the zip file is the exe file made by Game Maker Studio and the Game Maker source files. Don't use Avast myself. AVG has no problem with it.

I like this kind of game. You know, the kind of game where you're not sure whether you're Pushkin or not, and then it becomes clear but then it's too late because you're dead. Please make more games, I enjoy your work.

NB : "George's" name does not display on my screen (I'm under windows 8, 1920x1080), I can read only Alexander

I think it has a pretty interesting concept, and I like the sketchy art... But it's just missing somthing?

In case anyone else has the same problem as kristoffer, I've uploaded a version without the source files in case something there was causing the problem. Can't think of anything else to do as I know nothing about such things.

This game confused me, the input didn't correspond to any actions on the screen, the slow pace didn't captivate my interest.
