I love how it starts off feeling as though it's a whole different world, and then you realize it was the child's imagination the whole time.  Very charming.  \r<br\/>\r<br\/>The gameplay was very engaging, I liked how each form had a very specific use and I was encouraged to swap between them often.  I think a bit of challenge would have been nice, I don't think it was possible to die or have to restart.  But it was still awesome nonetheless.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I loved the feeling of this game, and the way your graphics presented the story without copious amounts of text to read.  That said, I felt the graphics were still lacking a bit.  Furthermore, I feel the particle effects were a bit TOO much.  There were times where my entire screen was filled with nothing but particle effects.  \r<br\/>\r<br\/>Audio was pleasant.  It did meld together into one white noise effect when a lot was going on.  I loved the voice-over lines for the businessman attacks.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>well done, a very fun entry!"},{"author_name":"Muciojad","author_uid":"21095","time":"Apr 21, 2016 @ 6:32pm","epoch":1461263220,"text":"Mindfuck!

The story is silly but super deep at the same time. It at times makes you want to smile and chuckle, and at times it makes you a little misty eyed.

When I was a child, I used to play with my imagination continuously. I miss that time. And I guess one of the reasons that I play videogames now is because I miss that time, the old fantastic worlds that me and my friends used to visit everyday. I suppose we all have done that, but many people do not remember as well. Maybe one day I'll try to play that way again :D.
