Fantastic stuff - high quality finish. Some definite chuckles throughout the narration. Hobos are the unsung extra-dimensional wandering heroes of our time. Played to fin.
Cool voice over, you clearly put a lot of work into this. The game is fine too (amazing atmosphere), but the control scheme doesn't work well for me. Moving with arrows in an isometric world is disorienting for my brain :)
Whoa! Amazing graphics! Gorgeous narrative! Controls are a bit weird. I somehow assumed that using my lantern will kill the dogs, but it didn't work :) Not being able to stun/kill them combined with random movement of dogs resulted in some frustrated situations where I couldn't reach lampposts because dogs just stood infront of me and I couldn't do anything. Anyway loved the game!
The graphics are really pretty, and I really enjoyed the voice overs. The controls were annoying at times, it was easy to hit dogs by accident. Also if I got to a checkpoint before one voice track finished two would play at once. Great job though, I enjoyed it.
It takes some time to be used to the controls (at first the fact that I didn't stuck again walls bothered me but then I understood it was of great help). Other than that it's brillant !
Great work! The art style is beautiful and the voice-over work is very nicely done and professional :D The controls are a bit off at first but that is to be expected with an isometric game. Thanks for keeping checkpoints nice and close to each other! :D
Super cool. Liked the theme. The narration is great! Controls were tough to get used to, and overall it was a little unforgiving, but this is a great entry. Nice work!
Beautiful and interesting but was very laggy, im running in firefox, is this an issue?

Really nice graphics. I was surprised when I finished the game, it didn't feel like the end. The voice over is a really nice touch. It kept me interested throughout the game. Impressive accomplishment in only 72 hours :D
Love the style and the atmosphere, very slick production. Controls were a little difficult with isometric, and I ran into the fire plenty. :D Loveed the animation on the dogs and the glowing eyes in the dark.
Took a while to get used to the controls but once I did I was navigating around pretty well. Wish I had some more power up or could feel like I had an easier time getting around the obstacles, but you've done an amazing level of polish on the game - fantastic work!
The graphics brought me in, the story, atmosphere and narration kept me. But terrible controls and boring gameplay let down what is otherwise a very well executed game.
Cool game... Was a bit affraid of the dogs ;) I always have a hard time with those controls (shifted 45°). The spoken dialog gives the whole thing a good atmosphere.
Lovely graphics, for a very fun entry. The narrator was an interesting addition, but I his voice sounded too low (even despite having the PC volume quite high). Congratulations!
If I had to nitpick, I found the controls a bit frustrating as you're offsetting them by 45 degrees. I never got used to cursor keys used in isometric games! Oh and sometimes if I got through a section really quickly the narration would overlap.
But yeah, everything I didn't mention is awesome. :)
Excelent graphics mood and atmosphere, but the controlls were a bit strange. Not that they are isometric, but when I colide with a wall I start going in a random direction. Also the dogs could be done with some ai not compleately random. Besides that this is one ove the favourite games so far!
The graphics and the sound effects are nice, especially the voice over fits very well (Bastion :D). The controls felt somehow strange, e.g. if the character changes the walking direction to another because the direction where you targeting is blocked.
Great atmosphere. My brain doesn't really like isometric arrow controls, but I still managed to finish it.

Very nice looking game, audio was top, too... I would just have expected the unlit areas to be darker, it's a bit confusing like that. And what exactly does picking up a bottle of whiskey do, didn't notice it...
I really love this entry. Beautiful graphics and visual effects. They work with the game mechanics perfectly. The story readings added a lot to the mood. Great game full of moonshine!

Naration was a nice addition. Gamplay was rather nice as well.
Awesome entry.

Reminded me Bastion =) Good game in any case!
A bit easy but really fun
Charming, beautiful, 5 stars all the way ;)
It's really awesome!

Still, it was a very fun well made game.

Also i was really close to abandon game because of controls scheme.
