This is a really really interesting concept. I especially love the way that you "acquire" the "abilities" by actually getting hit purposefully. A super fun introduction to the mechanic. I think there's a few technical kinks (possibly some issues with Keyboard Ghosting) but the idea and the theme and the art and the visual effects and music are all... Airtight ; )
Thank you!
Played your game will rate when I am done with my queue. I really liked it, great idea and a good story, reminds me of the golden era of experimental flash puzzlers :) (I could not pick up the skateboard and do what the hints suggest the game ended when I returned the bunny)
Ah!! That is a huge compliment, I was definitely going for that sort of experimentalism and I love that era of games. Also if you're curious about the solution to the puzzle I just uploaded a walkthrough showing the answer if you're curious
