Art was superb. Really solid and polished entry. Sound was also pretty good. Took me a while to understand that Z was the attack key, maybe put the controls on the description of the game?

Dying is really frustrating because it takes the player back to before the dialogue.

I'd like to the the gameplay more polished. Great job nonetheless!

Really wanted to finish the game but dying is really frustrating because it takes the player back to before the dialogue, so I didn't finish it.

I'd like to the the gameplay more polished. Great job nonetheless!

I really like the game graphic and the smooth gameplay is really enjoyable!
The game idea is great (awww sweet colonialist era criticism.. <3) and the theme link is strong. Well done! :D

Looks great, plays great, the idea is solid. The challenge is too much for me though, I couldn't get past 2nd god.
Also, Y U NO sound effects?

Great stuff, cool story. A little hard to see what's going on some times, hit reaction on first level is a little subtle.

Buggish:-) And it's really annoying that you can't start over quick and have to wait for the cut scenes to finish.

You give us beautiful pixels, moody music, nice character control, a monster who destroys an alien world, and most importantly, you give us emotion when you finish the game! Love it!

Really good entry, great audio and loved the graphics! Fonts were bit unreadable at times though.

The game has nice vibe, but sure - it's need to be more polished, there is a potential, I guess, well done!

Oh man, your game is so sad, but that definately means it succeeds
as a game to give off that sad vibe and the art and music are also
really well done, nice work man. :)

Great storyline! However, it's frustrating to go through the dialogues every time you die.

I liked of some parts (art, mostly). :)

I did not like not having control over the text (read as I want).
