i really liked it! i didn't use the mouse at all - didn't need it. well done! i got all 7 eagles - something that popped up to massage my ego at that point would have been great! nice little puzzles and visually it was really pleasing to explore. /A

Thanks. A "You Win" message would have been easy now that I think about it. Oh well :)

I like this a lot. Any game that frustrates to the point of wanting to quit and then think 'I'm clearly being stupid' and persevere must be doing something right! I got all o' them eagles! I like some of the techniques you used when rendering: nearest filtering and you actually clip the eagles to the light sphere. Super cool. :)

Very well done! Great work on using WebGL! The entire experience was pleasant and good! I was just running around after finding all 7 looking for some kind of an exit :)

The movement was a little fast for me, but on the other hand, I could look for stuff faster and not get bored!

Great music and nice puzzles :D I found all the 7 eagles.

The character moves a bit fast, so it feels a bit hard sometimes to release the lantern precisely on the switches. Also, the theme lacks presence in the gameplay. But I think you've gone a pretty hard road with the 3d webgl thing, and your game is well made. Good job !

You know, there's something in it. Simple retro level design... I loved it!
The concept is also great.
Good job!

Great puzzle premise! Amazing graphics, music, mood. Never did I feel frustrated, but rather motivated to continue looking for more golden eagles. You nailed the difficulty level! It was both fun and challenging.

Great game! I really like the graphical style and you made good use of decoration to distinguish different areas of the maze. It took me a while to figure out that the hexagons were pressure pads (maybe have them activate when the player walks over them to make it more clear?), also I think I finished the game but I couldn't tell - I found all seven gold eagles but there was no victory screen/message, so I thought that maybe I had opened up a new area with an exit room or something and I wandered around for a few minutes more but couldn't find anything so I just exited with an unsure feeling. Overall though a really great game; good work! :)

Nice work! An ending would have been cool, but still it had great atmosphere.
