Sure, the game is wonderfully creative, well writen and beautiful. But I want to draw your attention to the sound design.
The song chosen is generic enough to be toned out, while also being good enough to not be irritating. Making great elevator music. Additionally, either by chance ir design, there seem to be typewriter noises on every beat. This makes the perfect atmosphere for a game about working a menial editorial job.
Amazing game all around.

Hilarious, polished, and simple to understand. Everything from graphics to relation to theme are fantastic. My only complaint is I wish it was longer, and that's saying something.

COUNT CLAYCULA DREAMSwow, very creative take on the theme! it's very nice there are multiple stories you can make from erasing words. i didn't get the pesticides one, and i agree with millstone that i think the ending is bugged. but overall very nice and funny with well crafted sentences.
