I don't really know what this is, I had no ideas and this is a result of that.

For best results, please play with sound on!

This is pretty clever, brilliant intro! :)

Despite the only "themed" portion is an over glorified intro, I found it very entertaining. The platformer is really good too so it was worth sitting through!

I love the platforming section, the character is cute and I like the colour palette you've chosen

It says I am missing msvcp110.dll and couldn't open the game. I downloaded visual c++ redist and still has the problem. What is the requirement?

Doesn't work on my PC. :( (WinXP 32Bit)
After gamepoppers comment I really wanted to see that intro...

Hey ShellfishGames, what stops it from running? If it is the same issue that theholychicken had, then see my reply above.
ShellfishGames27 Aug 2013, 13:47
I simply get an error message that sais the exe is not a valid windows executable. :/ I already downloaded and installed the VC++ thing you mentioned, but to no effect.

Same issue here unfortunately, also on XP.

I just tried it on my laptop (vista) and it finally worked. And what can I say - very well done! Great atmosphere, unsettling yet kind of funny lines, a few surprises here and there. Not a lot of actual gameplay but a cool experience nevertheless. :)

Interesting game.

Too much time is spent waiting.

The intro is fun, but far too long ;)
Otherwise it's a cool little platformer :)

Thanks for the reviews.
I'm afraid I'm not sure why it says it's not a valid executable, I'm using Windows 8 so it might just be a case of XP being too old to work with the newest development tools. It's a shame, but I'm afraid I don't have an XP machine I can test and/or build on.

I really liked this! So creepy and disorienting. And the ending is brilliantly weird.

Interesting little experiment. Moody.

Hah, nice one ashdnazg. Quite honestly, I'm not entirely sure what I made, so I'm afraid I can't tell you what you just played. :D

Thank you all for your comments so far.

Very nice mood! I get some of that vindictive AI feel from it, and I like the font and colors that you used.

Hehe... weird.
