Nice idea!
I like the sound, don't hate the music, and the art is not bad at all. The dialogue between the universe and Specky was entertaining at first, but lost its charm as it started to get repetitive ("The gravity's getting stron" twice in a row killed the vibe for me). The theme seems a bit shoe-horned in, too, with the fact that it's 10 seconds after the universe is created having very little to do with the gameplay. Still, it's better than disregarding the theme completely, and it's a pretty good hook for the story.
I think you could have used the theme of the contest a bit better though.
Good luck mate!
Sound was EXTREMELY loud for me... not really sure why.
There also really should have been some sort of loading bar. The page was just plain white for me for about 10 seconds, and I almost closed it thinking it was bugged. Similarly, having to sit there for 10 seconds at the beginning made me wonder if I was supposed to do something.
Cool concepts otherwise!
