This was such a fun little thing to play, I love the puzzle-like feel to it, and the fact that if you screw up, it's game over. Good job!

Great idea based on the theme. I love these types of adventures. and great work making all your art and getting the idea. Thanks for creating the game.
Adding to my collection to finish later, from what I saw it was great fun and look forward to playing it more.
Interesting game. Huge fan of adventure games even though I am very awful at them. My only suggestion would be to have the exclamation mark hotspot trigger pop up when the player is in front of the item, no matter their depth. It took me awhile to realize I could traverse up the screen and then some interactions were enabled, but why some worked and some didn't, I couldn't say. Great job!
Cool an adventure game :D. And filled with that charming adventure game logic the genre is known for. I’m a fan of the art, and the animation of the snake eating the man was very amusing. But you had all those lovely backgrounds at the very end without there being anything to do but rush through them!
I’d say I did get stuck at one point, and only accidentally managed to get the mouse, as I didn’t see an interact icon. Also I wasn’t sure of the reason behind the order of the passcode, I’m assuming something to do with the shapes/colours, but the meaning escaped me. Otherwise I found the game to be excellent, great job!
Reminded me of Future Wars / Operation Stealth. Nice vibe to it. Got to where I had the dagger but couldnt use it anywhere. Curious as what I missed. Seems like the intro goes to the credits if you're too slow. Recommend making it a little more visual as to what the player needs from each screen, or maybe some animation to use an object.
The game's logic was easy enough to follow through even with a couple of educated guesses and the progress was smooth for me ( Didn't get stuck ).
Good job and thanks for the experience!
Fun little puzzle game.
I couldn't read the writing on the first screen though, really small in the top left corner
Great game and very fun :) enjoyed the puzzles and exploring to solve the story. Keep up the work and great style.
