An excellent game, however, regarding the ending
SPOILER ALERT
I've played company of myself. But still, I can't tell: Was she killed or simply forgotten?
Reviews for "Fixation"

Thanks!
No, he didn't forget about her entirely. He only forgot what happened that day, and had to piece it together later on once he realized that she wasn't around. When he tells this story in the original, he skips over this period where he was blissfully ignorant.
I actually thought "Erase Progress" said "EASE progress" so I clicked it, hoping for all the levels to open up magically. The opposite happened and now I'm sad. Please change this button to say "Delete Progress". OK. Oh, and I got stuck at some level like 2-3 or something where I clearly had to jump into the boxes in order to land up higher when the boxes re-appeared. Please make a few bonuses like free levels to the challenged like me. OK? Like a god level with no points. Or something where I get to play all the levels, but then maybe try to make me feel bad somehow. Thanks! :)
FreeAsANerd responds:
Hahaha, that's a really unfortunate mishap. There are cheat codes to unlock the levels, so looking around on Google might help you get back to where you were. You can type them in on the Credits page of the main menu.
Thanks for writing!
I thought the connections to Company of Myself were really neat. The magic trick is obviously similar to CoM, where the premise of the game is to make copies of yourself. The same goes for the very last level, where you apparently kill Kathryn.
Still, it seems rather sudden, the ending. It's from Kathryn's viewpoint the entire time, and then she just drops into a pit. What was on her mind while she was falling?
As for the actual gameplay, the puzzles were pretty neat. However, some of them were unnecessarily frustrating. For instance, 4-4. That was such a small window of time to get all the smoke rings perfect that I actually got annoyed at the game. In my opinion, puzzles should be difficult to figure out but relatively easy to execute.
Great Game. For those of you who are having problems loading the game, play it on firefox or chrome. For some reason internet explorer had a problem for me when I tried to play it. If it still does not work, then make sure your flash player is updated.
FreeAsANerd responds:
Yup, that's the same advice I've been giving, too. Flash works in mysterious ways sometimes...sorry for the troubles, everyone!
And thanks to you for helping to let people know.
cant really review it cause it just wont load for me. not sure why actually waited a hour. the concept looks and sounds cool so i will give you a 3 1/2 . please fix load problem if you can.
FreeAsANerd responds:
Haha, thanks for the vote of confidence!
The best I can do with the loading problems is to suggest trying a different browser. Sorry for the inconvenienceâEU"I hope you can get it working!
