Visually this is amazing considering how quickly you finished, but you probably should have tested a little better. Check what happens when the number in the top-right corner goes above 6, for one thing.

Good graphics, but the gameplay and relevance to the theme is lacking somewhat.

Agreed with Derek... Graphics are awesome, but it's far far away from the theme... And, in my Mac, the cursor is SO slow I can't hit a bit...

Thanks to you I fixes all the bugs mentioned :). I'm adding a score system to get it more interesting.

Nice music and graphics and a nice game mechanic! Gets a bit repetitive early tho, would be nice to have a few more mechanics

That was somewhat cryptic and strange, not in a bad way though. First, that two-bar song was waaaaaaaaaaaaay too short. It sounded like you have nice musical skills, I wish there would have been a four minute song not a four second song. The picture of Uncle Istvan was great. I honestly couldn't tell what was going on between the instructions (4 of something?) the score counter (oscillating between (4, 6, and +) and the other score counter slowly moving towards... 90? Besides that, I think if you cleaned up the instructional text and added some visual theatrics for when the white seed is erased or dropped into the world (to accompany the audio cues) this would be nice.

Took forever to load, and the (new) one you posted doesn't seem to work for me. Maybe it might have been good to add some sort of preloader for that one?
I don't see much relevance at all, but the graphics are amazing. The score is buggy, though. Maybe next time use some more time playtesting before submitting?

I can't seem to load the game. I waited about a minute and never saw anything.

Nice graphics and music. But why does the music loop at the point it does? Gameplay wise, well, it's non-trivial but it does get old pretty quickly. :)

Nice presentation!

Looks cool, but tough to play.

It was fun drop catching, but a tooltip saying "Uncle Istvan Game" kept popping up in Chrome if I let my mouse still for longer than 1/10th of a second so keeping that from popping up was a meta-game in itself. To fix that set the Title attribute in the Object tag to "".
