  7. I'm not clear if I finished it or did something wrong. I got to the part with the colored explosions, but I'm not sure if I was supposed to hit them and make the beeping noise or not.

  17. Very atypical but so poetic :) After having freed some marshmallows, you got to go up and up and up till you're thrown in outer space, floating with your arrows in between magic coloured kaleidoscopic fireworks. And then the author is telling you something. I liked it+++

  19. I think even for a very short game it should have more sense, and a more proper ending. The colorful part burns my eye and I don't even know what's the goal there, I can't even gather points or keep track of my scores. It has nice music and I know short, dreamy games are not meant to be big deals, but this one is rather unfinished than short.
