Congratulations, you've beaten the game!
Simple art, but amazing atmosphere. Very difficult, though. Mostly trial and error.
This is a really good game. It reminds me of some of those old-school point and click adventure games, but to mention the idea behind it is so creative. I just wish that there were more to it. By that I mean it's short.
