- Fun and unusual - I loved the Bond-spoof setting. Not too hard, which means it's not a frustrating game, but the "examine floor" part of the pool puzzle definitely needs work - there's no indication that there even is a floor, so the player is *never* going to work that out logically. Apart from that, it's a really enjoyable game - well done!
- The idea of the portal to create mini games each with a unique feel was original although I struggled to use it at first and having to swap cases was probably unnecessary. I think with some more work on synonyms etc. this could become a really excellent game.
- I loved the different times and places in this game. Having a few smaller areas to explore made this game enjoyably easy to navigate. Thanks for your submission!
- Interesting game, where I appreciated how to solve puzzles one must be creative and use objects found on different scenarii.

Hello! I'm enjoying your game! I did come across an issue. It seems the oil can gets consumed after I use it on the chest and I can't use it on the lever. When I try leaving and returning to the oil can location, it's not there either. I tried following the walkthrough step by step (thanks for providing that, by the way!) but I still get stuck at that point.
Thank you! I have corrected this now.
Awesome! Works for me now. Thanks :)
