I liked the graphic, apart from the creature's sprite. The platforming is not that fun, as there's no clue which part is walkable.

I'm not sure I understand what you can do, I found the key but nothing else.

Great little game, I would like to see the flashplayer centered on the page though, was a bit awkward to play it all stuffed to the left, Got a great mood over the game!

The platforming was definitely rough when I was trying to climb up onto the tree; enough so that I only got three endings because I didn't want to keep clambering up there.

I do like the platforming + adventure gameplay, though. I wish the interactions with the characters were less binary (I hate you, thanks for helping me), but the platforming's a neat way to pull the player more into the game.

Hey guys! Thanks a lot for the comments. I did have little time to improve the platforming (and the known bugs with the boxes in the farm), since most of the time I was busy drawing stuff - first time drawing lots of stuff, I'm generally just in the programming part.

@TyrusPeace: that's exactly what I thought when combining the platforming and aventure point-and-click. I am going to put more work into this game (and definitely more content, so you don't get the binary talks), and release it to the world.

Again, thanks for the comments!

I had the same issue as daredevildave. Not really fun, mainly because I couldn't figure anything out. I liked the design and theme though.

According to me, the audio was pretty good. The tree platformer part is terrible but I likes the multiple endings.

@davidwparker: Yeah I see now that I should have added more instructions to the game. I thought everyone would think like I did when creating the game, but (fortunately :P) that wasn't the case. Taught me a good lesson! Thanks for the comment :)

@Pierrec: Thanks, I think you're the first person who said that about the audio haha. I had trouble setting up that platformer thing, so that's something to improve in the full version of the game. Thank you :)
