@m4c0 - Our hero pygmy thinks differently from the others, while everyone else assumes that the sky god is angry with them, he wonders if there might be other people outside their island. He imagines that the world is not as tiny as they think it is.
I do intend to release the game as well, I just need to polish things up some more :)
Easy and fun.
The graphics are good as well!
Good job!
A minor issue: Why use numbers for the menu if your game needs mouse? The first time I play I died because I didn't expect to use the mouse to shoot and I had to check the instructions.
@free_napalm - yeah I know, I can't compose music.
the graphics and sounds are perfect.
