Great music. Main problem for me: hard to see what's happening

Great soundtrack. As noted, the game itself was a bit difficult to see, and a bit unforgiving at times. Nice work though!

Love the style, but I agree the art is really small. Needs to be scaled 2x or more; as it stands I have no idea whats happening. It took me almost a full minute of flailing to figure out what to do on the first screen.

hard to see what is going on, nice game nonetheless.

What a cute game! I had some trouble finishing the dirtboarding level, but maybe that's just my lack of skill.

Ooh.. definitely tiny! Very cute! I got stuck at the top of the tree trunk with the snails... not sure if that was a bug or if I just couldn't figure out what to do?

Definitely full marks for visuals. It looks amazing, albeit small. My biggest gripe was that the webpage you hosted it on didn't have scrollbars. So when I first played, I couldn't tell that there were instructions until I Ctrl- the entire page. The rest was fun though. Very cute!

Several very small games, actually so tiny it's hard to see. Cute, but a little bigger would help (I almost gave up in first platformer level because I had problems to see that the ground has holes).

Fun but it was incredibly hard to see anything.

whitetigle 2012-04-24 21:51

fine music but how does it work ?

azurenimbus 2012-04-24 21:54

I like it, I think it's actually a deceptively ambitious concept. The only thing I would suggest is working on the controls. I actually like the tiny graphics, they are awesome.

schattenkind-net 2012-04-24 21:57

I like the music. Good game.

castor 2012-04-24 22:05

Cool game. The dirt boarding part is mad difficult!

kato9 2012-04-24 22:08

Very funny/weird/quirky little game - I enjoyed it! The graphics are absurdly small, but as you mentioned you can zoom in with the browser. The minigames themselves aren't too compelling but the overall experience was good.

vdogamez 2012-04-24 22:35

That was cool. I liked the bunch of self-contained games thing it had going, it was a creative interpretation of the theme. The parts themselves were rather unextraordinary, but they come together to make a rather surreal game.

Great Game. Congrats

chrismcr 2012-04-25 12:01

This raised more than a few smiles for me - sure the views are a little small but that just seems part of its charm. Lovely!

tsj666 2012-04-25 18:47

Really good work!!! The game was a bit short, but well done! You have a great amount of fantasy!

fireblend 2012-04-26 00:03

Haha, that was fun. Nice music, mood, and the action moving around the screen for different scenes with different gameplay was really cool and clever. I really enjoyed this!

shmooel 2012-04-26 00:19

The game was quite brilliant. The 9 different mini games were each amazing in their own way. Keep it up gaming project.

orni 2012-04-26 06:40

such a great game
the storytelling was awesome and it's incredible how much different gameplay you managed to squeeze into this.

one of my favorites

gnx 2012-04-26 20:19

It is a bit too tiny, at least on my display.
I am really liking the transistions, it feels like a storybook or comic but also a game.

The music is pleasent.
The game did jam when I was climbing the tree. The snail hitting sound started looping and I couldn't do anything anymore.

Aside from tininess and bugs very nice.

kyatric 2012-04-27 02:32

Indeed a reduced view port, it makes it very hard to comfortably play the game.

murilo 2012-04-29 14:40

Nice variety! I like it!

cosmologicon 2012-05-01 21:51

Having a bunch of minigames is very ambitious for a short-timescale competition, so good job pulling that off. I agree with everyone that the viewport and lack of scrollbar makes it very difficult to play, but I did finish it. Cute story.

netmute 2012-05-03 16:17

Very cool! One of the few games were the music isn't annoying after 10 seconds :)

oye-beto 2012-05-05 03:42

You made a lot of mini games with a lot of graphics :o
the art is pretty cool and it's interesting to see what will come after each mini game.

I didn't know inudge, it looks fun.

I zoomed in my browser as recommended.

rvmook 2012-05-05 15:07

The text ditracted me from looking at the graphics. Had fun plying the little mini games, didn't really get the story though.

wibblymat 2012-05-05 20:43

Extremely unforgiving for some of the levels, super easy for others. Other than that, nice game!

make-a-game 2012-05-05 21:41

So many minigames! You use the screen in some cool ways, but there are moments where everything it too small to really see what's going on. There's as much text as gameplay.

SethR 2012-05-06 03:23

Tiny indeed. The problem with browser zoom (firefox) was the arrow keys would cause the page to bounce around. I won the game nevertheless, nice job.

orangepascal 2012-05-11 17:07

very nice collection of mini games!
