Neat game. Cute graphics, but not much gameplay.

Player through, nice work.

Neat little point and click game with good music.

Got stuck on Level 2 for a long time, but after I got through it the rest of the levels were relatively quick to complete. I'm not quite sure I understand all of the solutions, though.

Cute game, but I often didn't understand why I won a level. I'm not asking for super mega HD graphics, but the visuals didn't really explain to me what it was I was clicking, so I just clicked at random. Music was adorable.

nice music, cute theme, very easy, but enjoyable :)

Nice atmosphere, but a little short on gameplay. I'm not quite sure 'simply drawn' graphics lend themselves for point 'n' click games - objects were so big that clicking and moving stuff solved all your problems before you know why.

While the graphics were cute, visual cues weren't so great as I wasn't even sure what I was doing.

Rarely knew what I was clicking on or how it worked, but I thought it was funny and cute. I won by just clicking on random things and progressing when I could. :3

It is a cute game, but I got stuck on level 7 when the ball started falling through the screen and looping.. then got glued to my cursor.

Unable to download - says account suspended

Same here. Account suspended.

We all like the Music by Kevin MacLeod (Incompetech is the correct spelling), but I'm afraid for the 48h-compo EVERYTHING has to be created by yourself.

Hosting account suspended (both win and web links) so can't try it - anyway by using music not of your own you've broke the rules.

kevinworkman 2011-08-26 20:35

What Shigor said.

martoon 2011-08-27 13:57

Yup, can't play with the account suspended. And as matthias_zarzecki mentioned, you're not allowed to use any external art, music, etc. for the compo.

If you get your download working again, I'll check it out later but play with the sound off so I can legitimately rate it.

rudy 2011-08-28 09:11

Aren't you supposed to make music yourself for 48h compo?

andrew-2 2011-08-28 12:59

Buttons are a bit hard to click and I never really understood the way boxes fall. The graphics and the music complement each other very well.

shigor 2011-08-28 21:04

Finally played: confusing pixel hunting requiring pixel precise clicking even on menu items. Got stuck on level two for a long time before I managed to click somewhere and something happened, then finished the rest quite fast (often don't understanding what I am doing). Sometimes item would stay stuck to my cursor.
Wouldn't rate it very well even if you hadn't broke the rules by using music not of your own. Better luck next time.

I had no clue what was going on most of the time, but I liked the idea enough that I played through it twice to see if I could figure out what was happening. I still had no clue what was going on, though. :(

summaky 2011-09-10 16:37

I just moved things randomly and they worked, still don't know why... Also, you must do your own assets in a 48h competition entry, so........
