Question

So this happened before Theia crashed on the earth and created the moon and lots of other things?

Toonimated responds:

yup, even after voly trying to save the planet it will have to eventually crash with the earth.... sometime in their far future

Ended Badly

It was fun and interesting, but it overstayed its welcome.

Toward the end, it became tedious, overly convoluted, and borderline sadistic. It ceased being clever, and merely became frustrating. The last boss, in particular, seemed to have been designed to extend the game beyond its natural lifespan. It was not so much a test of intelligence and finger dexterity than it was a test of patience and memory. The change in pace is jarring, and definitely works against the game. The sudden introduction of the mouse in the quicktime event was especially uncalled for, since the mouse was not otherwise required for the entirety of the game.

I, for one, panicked at that point, grabbed the mouse... and clicked the banner ad. Having not written down the password, I would have been forced to restart the game from the beginning, which I do not intend to do.

Apart from that, there are some slight control issues, where the character or the rocks being pushed would be stuck. Backing away and then ramming into the rocks generally overcame the problem, but it does detract from the fun. It is also quite hard to judge the horizontal alignment. Slight misalignments have also been the cause of some cheap deaths.

Quite well done, and definitely holds promise, but would have been better if it had ended before it ran out of ideas.
