Also ran into an error on the Wolf Wolf Wolf Wolf level, when 2 of the wolves would notice me, it would error and I'd have to abort the game.

I especially love that wonderful contrast between the cute and the gruesome.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Noticed a few bugs. If you press the arrow keys fast enough, you can do extra moves (and if one of those extra moves takes you into a wall, your used time will go down leaving you with an unused move when you shouldn't have one). Also, if you continue (password) on the wolf only level (which I assume is the last level, and if so I love the bleakness there), you get a divide by zero error when you inevitably lose (presumably because you've collected 0 out of 0 corn?).\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Also, I think the music\/audio might be mixed a bit too loud.
