Very well made, but too hard to guess.

Fascinating :)

I absolutely loved this one. The music works perfectly and give the game life! A really heart-touching game.

great visuals (but i'm biased since i was exploring a similar style), and the music bits triggered by actions were nice too. i'm still not sure what the story is trying to say, though.

Hauntingly beautiful visuals and music. I wish it was longer. Reminded me of Knytt somehow.

I like how this game has a style, but I find the actions somewhat odd. For example, I don't quite understand what it means when I go outside, then suddenly I find myself back in. The game is quite good and I do like the little story; I'm just a bit confused about the actions. Anyway, another high point of this game are the graphics, I like them very much.

After reading the walkthrough I suppose the human-game interaction look as<br>
loop:<br>
select object<br>
select other<br>
if action[object, other]: do action[object,other]<br>
<br>
Before reading the walkthrough, I supposed the controls and or scripting where broken.<br>

This is a piece of art!

I love the atmosphere in the game, and the 3D effect when walking outside. The music is VERY beautiful, I love it.

Wonderful job!

I really liked the look of this, even if I have no idea what was going on. Well, I could appreciate some of the symbolism, but still, no idea. But a fun little short really. Liked the 'no inventory' approach as well.

Seemed to suffer from some weird animation bug where the screen is only redrawn when the window is exposed.

Nice, but very short, and some of the interface was a bit unclear. It was hard to tell which objects were clickable, and which just made you put things down.

Beautiful game. A little short but sweeeet.

Nice artwork and music. Story seems a little disjointed -- not always clear what's stopping you from getting out of the house.

Great stuff! Pity it's too short.

Nice graphics and good start for a story. But the end came way to soon I didn't feel like I have played a game at all.

I love the camera effects. Game was very short though.

I like locked room puzzle games and I like what you did with it. The blurry boundary between sound effects and music was a really nice touch. I just wish it was longer and had more of a puzzle aspect. Great game engine, it just needs a little more content. Keep up the good work!

Aborting. I was running this on Ubuntu 8.10 amd64. Got a minute or two of gamemplay, but then it
always crashed.

Oh. Man. Beautifully done game, a poignant story behind it by my interpretation of it anyway. Very innovative presentation, I love the use of layers. Just the right amount of clicking around for an adventure game I felt. Nice music too!

A simple, very well executed game.

4 5 4 yes

great, but not themed.

Wow. Just wow - I really enjoyed this mini-experience. It left me wanting more!

Wow, this is one of the weirdest (don't take it negatively ;) entries I've seen. Very moody and exceptional production. The piano really gave it an eerie atmosphere.

Good production, have no idea how I get outside though ;)

It was not quite easy to figure out what to do (just clicked around semi-randomly), but I really like the theme/emotion you are transmitting here. Great Work!

Good art and music but wasn't fun at all :(

I'm sorry, but I just don't get it... Very nice art, though.
