[Grey Story]

What..?

I understand completely, don't get me wrong, but that was an awful story. This is the story of a girl and the tool who loved her. How well do they know each other? We don't know, but we're willing to tear ourselves apart for her. Don't get me wrong, I would go to the ends of time for a girl, but not a girl who doesn't know I exist. I understood the blurring effect was symbolic for fading away and I didn't hate it, but after I noticed it, the ending was so predictable. I'm not amused. The piano is too twangy for my taste. It doesn't really blend with the soft aura this has. The melody is great, but wrong instrument. It gives me a headache. A four is about all I can give for the game mechanics working. Although how slow I was and the inability to pick up multiple items annoyed me, but I understand that was the point.

Awesome.

Excellent message. The walk was a tad long and boring, but emphasized what happened. While playing I had a strange render issue. I was walking by flowers and then they flashed into trees. Hopefully an isolated incident. A challenge to all 0 bombers, do better. Sure, it was a fairly simple art game, but I doubt you could deliver such a message.
Breakdown:
9/10 stars - Excellent message, but the walk could have been shortened a bit.
Rated 5/5 - The split ending was a great touch.

Hm..

I don't appreciate a game made just so it can promote another game. Although I do play Dead Frontier and it is amazing with the new 3D update. Still, low blow. This game had a cute, relaxed style about it. I liked it. The audio got a little annoying when it got to high pitched parts though. It sounded like it peaked or something. Whatever it was it annoyed me.

This game was nice. I'm not that great with timing though. :S But it's not about the score, it's about how much fun you have. Most people do better when they have music playing. I go to school and work with video and audio. When I edit a video, I need music playing. I work better with something playing. And this game is the embodiment of that. The meaning portrayed in this is powerful and very true, just as Liosalfa pointed out. And I don't think I could have said it any better myself.
So I'll leave it at that. Rated 5/5. 10/10 stars.

!!!

This has to be one of the best puzzle games I've seen yet. I really liked the art. Also, the puzzles were challenging but not challenging to the point of frustration. Although I see the suggestion to make them harder, I don't think that's a very good idea. Making the puzzles harder would only benefit a few people. How the game is currently, is just fine. On a little side note, I did love when you jumped to the other planet, that he landed and stayed on his knee for a second. I thought that was just a great detail to it.
But, the ending left me craving more, when I jumped into the spaceship to leave, I was waiting to land on another planet for more puzzles. Then the credits began to roll and I was disappointed. I'm sure that was a lot of work for only a few puzzles, but more would be great. Excellent game nonetheless!

I like it.

This game did get boring since it's just you running around, but it really made you think. Like the ninth portal. That one took me a while to figure out. This literally took a good five hours to get all the medals. Four hours to run around and get everything and one hour to solve the puzzles. But I did enjoy it. I almost gave up on the final tally bead. I was sitting on the title screen and the game panned over where it was. I'll take it as a sign for me to have continued. x] But this game made me very curious. It has no true goal but many. Glad to say, I got all the medals. That's an achievement within itself. Great game. ^-^ Rated 5/5. 10/10 stars.

I've been meaning to play this game sooner.

But the wait was worth it. This game is among the best I've ever played. The artwork was marvelous. The story was gripping. Although the name gives away what happens, it still leaves room for the ride. When I saw the piano at the beginning, I thought it was some meaningless object that was there for show. Then the area with the flute made it all come together. And on an unrelated note.. I enjoyed jumping on the red fruit. I found no errors in this game besides the name giving it away. Surprises are fun. But other than that, excellent. Rated 5/5. 10/10 stars.
