awesome idea, liked the gameplay alot. You could have made some harder parts tho. But the general idea is good and works nicely with the simple controls. The ending "discovery" was nice too.
Cool! Really nice how you combined the wall jump mechanic with the puzzle mechanic. Unfortunately I got stuck after a while (it was just too hard - a place where you need to jump quite high and avoid all red bars). It was also a bit annoying when I clicked outside the window. Maybe keyboard controls could resolve this.

This game was awesome. The mechanic was used very cleverly and the puzzles impressive. I imagine more could follow! :)
I played it all through the way through :) Definitely a very neat and complete feeling puzzle platformer. I guess my only critique would be that I didn't like the music that much. :P
Kept clicking offscreen but not much that can be done about that. (Although, maybe embed the SWF with whole-screen width, with the game centred in that?)
Anything requiring clicking just after going to a new screen is tricky because the mouse needs to be in a totally different place.
Quality stuff, annoying in all the right ways. Bit more polish, and slightly refined controls and I would fork out a few quid for the extended version :)
Control styles were pretty hard for me - I think the single-screen setup didn't work well for me - I kept on clicking outside of the control area (or wanting to). The cost of failure for some of the bits was really too high for me (lots of backtracking necessitated in my playthrough as I failed over and over again). I explored a fair bit, though. Frustrating :(
Interesting gameplay! As with any maze-y game, I'd really like something to help me keep track of where I've been and where I'm going. The last game where I thought that drawing maps with pencil and paper was fun was Hacker II :-) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hacker_2)
I like where you were going with this, but the controls killed it for me. I also had troubles with clicking outside the game window. I really wanted to keep going! But the controls made it too frustrating/difficult :(
Great game! So there is cake after all :) Very nice mechanic, nifty puzzles not borderline frustrating and good length. Only niggle is that clicking outside the window is annoying.
The ending was especially rewarding! "RAINBOW MODE" and the knowledge that I could suddenly go through all the barriers was a lot of fun, and then there was CAKE
Good game, gameplay is simple and intuitive, is annoying that some part of the level are just jumping around doing nothing because my last move was hit a wall :(

but, you know, not bad at all :)
And lulz at the ending. Portal throwback anyone?
Very nice job.
Game mechanics are interesting, a bit frustrating some times, but great game indeed.
Nice timelapse!!
Bravo!
One of the best games in this competition imho
I enjoyed every minute of it.
It was very well polished and tested.
Thanks for the fun experience.
