  • A simply fantastic entry and game. Highly impressive and near-professional quality. Visuals were stunning, audio was varied and high-quality, brilliant references and a superb sense of LucasArts-eque and Pratchett humour throughout the game. A variety of characters and puzzle types throughout and overall just an outstanding game with a very clever and well-written story. If there were any criticisms to give, it would only be to adapt the context-sensitive puzzles. There's no reason for the poster to not give the 'not sticky enough' prompt prior to getting into the alley. There's no reason to not reference the fish while getting the water. These were the only frustrations in the entire joyful experience. Top marks - can't praise it highly enough, truly.
  • This is really good. Excellent pacing and puzzles and humor with attractive graphics. Loved it.
  • Really enjoyed it! Great work

Oh my god. I was checking previous entries and started playing this game. It's too depressing for me; I was about to cry in the ending. It has really a bitter-sweet story. Nice job.

Congratulations! I was expecting yours to be on the top 3, very much deserved!

Congratulations!!!! So glad this game won, it was the best in my opinion too, although I loved a pair of the rest and enjoyed a few of the others. Good job!

Fantastic! It's  a classic graphical point'n'click adventure game, with nice puzzles, animations, and good music in the background. I loved it!
It even has 3 different endings, depending on how many things you do at the very end!
10/10

I loved the story! As others have said, the puzzles are just the right difficulty. While I never got stuck, I never thought it was too easy either. Music and art were nice too. Good work!

This was a lovely game, I really enjoyed it. Fun dialogues, good puzzles and it isn't too short either. Nice ending too.

It's pretty incredible that you could make it in two weeks, congrats!

I saved quite some time making all the characters ghosts :P plus, I had lots of spare time these weeks. Had the jam taken place now, I doubt I could have made it. Thanks :)

Very nice :-) Puzzles were sensible enough to figure out, yet also not overly obvious. Really enjoyed it.

Developer

Thanks a lot!

Dude, thats awesome. I teared up a little at the end!

Developer

Thanks :) I'm happy that the ending turned out so fine, because it's a last minute invention. I had no idea where to go up to the last days!
