This is an outstanding game. Simply outstanding.

Carly said...

I can't finish it because it keeps restarting no matter what I do or don't do. And I am not impressed with the first three frames that I did get to see.
Yech!

It doesn't seem to start for me. Just says "Loading Complete" and then 99 below the guy walking.
Can anyone help?
I'm using IE7 at the moment.

You might need to click the game screen in order to make it start. But right now it seems like the website is getting hit kind of hard. Was running faster earlier.

Carly said...

After figuring out that you need to hold space long enough to inhale all yellow glow things but not until you start coughing, I actually made it to the end.
Now I am even less impressed than before. Who actually likes this stuff??
This one's a new low for posted games, Bart!

flOw is actually a good game, as is Flower, though I haven't got to play that much because I don't have a PS3.

Me/You said...

Heu, I really didn't like this game... As the beginning is very relaxant, as the end totally irritated me...

horrorshow said...

omg, this ending is so good. I'm still laughing :)

Funniest game ever! The ending is great. I am wondering if you can beat the kracken. I didn't but it was still funny. Is this one going to be in the TOP 10 this year Bart? I really hope that it is!

You can beat the Kraken, but woe unto your space bar. In other news, the link is dead. :(

WHAT THE HELL IS SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN AT THE END?

When I play it, I walk through the wood and then some text comes up and it takes me back to the main menu. Am I missing something?

Bart said...

Yep, the links is dead. Now let's see if it comes back up or if there's another copy of the game somewhere ...

Wind Lane said...

I'll bet the link is dead due to it exceeding bandwidth or something like that.

Anonymous said...

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! The site is dead! I was going to play it again and try to kill that Kracken. If I manage to find the game elsewhere I'll post it here so the link can be updated.

I don't get it. Can someone explain what's so funny. What Kraken?

Anonymous said...

There is a Kracken in the pond at the end of the game. It's the big scary squid-monster from one of the Pirates Of The Carribean movies. I can't remenber which one of the movies it was. You'll know what it is when you see it. You'll most likely also laugh your head off when you see it. It's really funny!

Colleen said...

Nope. Neither internet explorer or firefox can display the page.

Alecia said...

It's loading for me now! Will see how I go. :)

Alecia said...

HAHAHA That was pretty funny. =D

Yay! The link is up and running again. I also killed the Kraken! ALL HAIL ME!!!I KILLED THE KRAKEN!!!

Anonymous said...

I don't get it. It keeps replaying the beggining for me. Am i missing something?

Anonymous said...

As far as I can tell I've done everything correctly but no crazy ending for me. Either this is a hoax or I'm a dolt.

Probably a little of both...

Caught me off guard, though.
Almost gave me a heart attack.
How do you kill the kraken???
