Yeah like most others I didn't really know what to do. Even if you had just a small, basic cutscene at the start to explain it would've been much better. The graphics were great though and the mechanics that I did figure out were well done, and I did enjoy it. I'll definitely come back to try and beat it again, but good job!

Ah, great idea! I liked the setting and the sound, they fit together very well. Regarding the gameplay, I got confused because I walked all over the scenery, dodged the anomalies, but nothing else happened... where am I going wrong?

And if you could rate my game, I'd appreciate it, it has very similar mechanics to yours, haha.
