Unfortunately, I struggled to figure out what I was supposed to do in this game. I couldn't find anything to interact with in the lower area, and when I eventually managed to jump-run up a steep hill to the upper area, I was blocked from going around the lake by a pop-up. I quit after eventually finding the edge of the world and falling off in the upper area. Additionally, the visual clash of the style of the characters and the environment was not great. However, I enjoyed the music and appreciated the effort put in to narrate the intro.
