This was a cool little game, I liked the art a lot, yet trying to paint was really difficult. Perhaps if it were a really floaty flying thng then perhaps it might work a bit better.

Good job still.

Developer

I worry that if I went for a flying character, it'd just be like a paint program but with worse controls. If I'd had more time, I think I would have liked to better express lower expectations for the player - I think painting quickly and terribly would be more fun than slowly and methodically. Either way, thanks for playing!

It's difficult to control (Not helped by the controls not having a good explanation), and the lack of a score system means there's no player feedback to speak of - I don't feel rewarded for doing well or challenged to do better. But the sounds fit quite nicely.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback - I've added the controls to the game page, which will hopefully help them be a bit more understandable. Unfortunately, the scoring system is bugged - you should get a different face depending on how accurately you painted. As it is, I guess I'll just have to claim it's a comment on the subjectivity of art, or something. As I definitely always intended. Thanks again for playing!
