Cool game, very enjoyable. There is something off with the mouse controls and the shadow area is a little unclear where the boundaries are and when you throw it, you don’t know how big it will be. Still, the game is engaging and has great music.

- Well done, I really enjoyed the escalating difficulties of the puzzles. The theme was cleverly incorporated as well. the targeting system was the only hiccup that was hard to manage at times with the target being so far out and static distance from the player. It would be helpful if the target followed my mouse cursor instead.
