Art is lovely, goal is unclear (if there is one), the screech of the gates opening was a little like nails on a chalkboard, but overall it was nice.

We missed the instructions for the game but the idea is that you go through 5 days, solving puzzles in each day and sometimes bringing some boxes into other days to solve the ultimate puzzle (opening the gate that is closed on all days), by leaving useful items you find in each day in the blue area near the cabin so that they follow you into other days. The cabin door is used to swap days too. It definitely could be clearer though.
Thanks! We could have done better with the instructions and details of how to play but ultimately you do have to jump around a few days to solve the ultimate puzzle (opening the gate that is closed on all days). Also thanks, we had a very talented composer and SFX guy, who worked hard to get things sounding nice!

Thanks for the comment. I think we had some issues with performance on web which is why we ended up with a download only entry.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed running around in our game.

Thanks, yeah we ended up with more bugs than we expected so for now you can go through all the levels (by interacting with the cabin door) but it might not be possible to complete the game because of the bugs.

Thank you! We had some very nice models made, especially for the house, thanks to our 3D artist.
