That was a fun  game with a good amount of humor😊! 

GAMEPLAY 
Unique gameplay for this game with point and click and go. Did wonder if I could use the vacuum cleaner to do something πŸ˜Š?! Nice humor in the game. Made me laugh. Was fun to play. Controls were not very easy but I manage to come along in the game but it was also a hard game.

GRAPHICS/ART   
Nice simple art and fun references.

AUDIO   
Simple and relax background music. Maybe some extra sound effects would have been a nice polish to the game.

THEME  
I got the idea, check,  even though the cleaner did not absorb anything I could notice.πŸ˜…

Overall a fun game to play. Nice!

incredible! It gave me a couple of laughs with this game, the gameplay based on Getting Over It, was the most remarkable and fun, few negative things to say, in a nutshell I loved the game :D

This was a neat idea for a game. The dialogue fit very well the theme of a boy having been stuck alone on a trashed earth and I like the funny signs -- were chairs originally intended to help the player jump higher? I got a ways up the junk pile, but ended up stopping because there were a lot of points where I kept getting stuck at a weird angle the vacuum would not advance from, bouncing around to slightly different spots in hopes this time I could get somewhere.

Unique Spin on the theme, with a fun and straightforward gameloop that's kind to the player. 

Great nod to Getting Over It, With it's own style and the humor is on point.

Very charming experience overall :D
