Created in HTML5, audio only working in Chrome, game works in Chrome, Firefox and Safari.. crashes in Opera.
So basically: use chrome for best results ;)
Used a simple HTML framework I had as base, but it got completely rewritten in the end so nothing left from any frameworks (also reason sound isn't crossbrowser, etc)
Perfect old school adventure. Most of the puzzles are funny and don't make any sense at all... but because the level is so small, it doesn't take long to stumble on the solution. In full-size adventures I always worried that I missed some small thing hours earlier.

Nice little adventure! Gamelay feels quite good.
As far as I know WolframTunes are usable, but I don't use them as they all sound kinda same-y.
Absolutely brilliant. Hands down the best entry I have seen yet. AMAZING work! Would love to see a blog writeup of the process and things you learned. Love the art, sfx, fact that it is a html5 game. 5/5.
Simple, yet brilliant! Really enjoyed it! The great thing is that although I couldn't figure it out each piece of the puzzle straight away, the variables were limited so I could experiment with what I had to make it work!
Fun game - had to cheat and look at the code to work it out, though. Found picking the objects up a bit fiddly sometimes when there were a few on the floor. Shame about lack of sound on Firefox version.
Awesome! Really enjoyed it! However I did have to restart the first time as -SPOILER- the fire didn't start when I moved the glasses :( Second time worked perfectly though :D Great ending!
Great game, thought maybe a bit too easy, because I can never solve escape games like this :) Graphics were cool and it's and interesting use of the theme.
[Comments and ratings from this account come from various team members] Audio did not work for me in firefox so I switched over to chrome and everything worked fine. Fantastic graphics and feel! Pitty about the music, I think that would have added a lot. The gameplay seemed a little bit lacking. Most of the game for me was just clicking everything onto everything else to see if anything happened rather than thinking things through. Still a fantastic game overall though.
The end was… surprising. But I guess I escaped >_< It liked a lot the graphics and I wish I could hear the music (no Chrome here, but I see that you removed it anyway.) The “combine objects” has definitively a nostalgic feeling for me and it fits the theme very well indeed.
I really like the game, the mood and the artstyle. Very well polished. But I've been playing it for a long time and I'm stuck. People have been praising the ending and I'd like to see it though, before I can rate it =/ any tips? I don't know what to do with the [SPOILERS] Parachute and bat glider [/SPOILERS]
I love this! You took the theme and made a fun little challenge out of it. Gives me something to think about for my next game jam, for sure.
Like others, I could only get the sound working in Chrome. I really like how you handled the dialogue and especially handled surprise with the player. Nice!
I don't have or want Chrome on my PC, and I feel I wouldn't be able to fully enjoy it without audio, let alone rate it...is there no other way to play it with audio?
Well, that certainly was a predicament. Nice graphics, and I love the simple controls doing so much. Had a little trouble with dropping items and trying to pick up others.
Gorgeous pixel art on the environment! A fun single room puzzle game- I like where it goes with the theme.
I thought the item combinations the solution takes and I guess not much can be said without spoilers! I found the ending pretty funny and to be an interesting solution to the whole conflict :P It's fun!
Very nice pixel art and use of the theme. A little bit too short and straightforward, though. But it shows quite some promise for a future full-length game.
I was about to complain about not working on Opera, but I saw that you already knew that :) Nevemind, I switched to Firefox just to play your game and it was really worth it! Congratz! Love the graphics!

Fun game, though tricky to work out!
In full-size adventures I always worried that I missed some small thing hours earlier.

Other than that, brilliant!
And so funny as well!
Found picking the objects up a bit fiddly sometimes when there were a few on the floor.
Shame about lack of sound on Firefox version.
It's funny we did choose the same interpretation of the theme (a player imprisoned in a "tiny world").
Great job!
and for those who think you can't leave the cave.. you can.. you aren't done until you are out ;)
I liked trying all the combinations to escape, but the ending was... unexpected.
Audio didn't work on Nightly...
So... is getting taken away by [SPOILERS] the GOOD ending? Pretty sweet little game.
Simple, good graphics, unexpected.
Thank you for this game. :)

Its really short,but its fun and has great art.
Really awesome work,would love to play more if you add to it.
Great fir for the theme
Minor touches like dirt kicking up when you jump goes a long way as well.
Like others, I could only get the sound working in Chrome. I really like how you handled the dialogue and especially handled surprise with the player. Nice!
I had fun playing with!
HTML5 the future! :P

Congratulations!
Anyway, It's an awesome game. Simple and awesomely polished.
Your tiny world stayed surprising and dynamic throughout.
Shame for the lack of music, but all in all a wonderful little game exactly fitting the jam theme.
Your story actually made me want to know what happens next.
Congratulations!
Great compo game. Solid graphics, good puzzles, lame funny jokes, good interaction, yeah...loved this.
Used Chrome; no audio. Not sure what's up there. I'll skip that category.
Great work :)
Anyway, this was fun - thanks!
Nice pixel art.
Great short game. I think it's good as it is with no more levels.
