I really enjoyed it,
Up until the Boss, where it wouldn't stop crashing.
Excellent Story though.

not sure if it's just me...but the game is rather laggy. :/
I broke it. Apearently in the first level where you bring kathrine with you into the alternate reality or whatever it is, you can get stuck in the top left-most floating platform. Good story from what i read, but im not going to replay the whole thing just to finish it....
Good effort on making a whole game, I know its not easy, I think next time you could focus a bit more on making the art more consistent. You had good character designs for the player, seemed very alive and engaging, but the backgrounds and levels were sort of sub-par. The gameplay and level design was essentially nonexistent, and seemed less engaging because there was no integration between how I experienced the story and how I played the game; simply pressing a key to scroll through text in the top right while playing a game isn't a story, it makes me focus on the two tasks separately as opposed to bringing them together into some greater whole. Having the hard to read text stuck in the top left isn't really interesting as far as design goes (not dynamic) and draws the focus away from the character. The story itself was alright, could use some more work there developing some depth to the dialogue, and the effort at the beginning to force the other game on players seem a bit jarring and unprofessional, but maybe necessary.
I'm happy you made something which seemed personal, made good use of music and some character designs, but overall I'm left asking "Why is this a game?" You seem like you have a story to tell and I won't discourage that, but you don't seem like you have any ideas for making a game to play, if you're worried about gameplay making players quit then you aren't doing it right, it doesn't add anything. Its part of the medium, either make it a key and interesting part of the experience or try out a different medium.
I don`t even know if it can be a bug, but when you get double jump, you can press (W) and (UP) at the same time and the character will jump throught the half of the map....thats why you can just jump over the fence. And in the some levels you can jump throught the edge of the map
Dark06Star responds:
But... why press (W) and (UP) at the same time ... Or even go outside the map.. doesn't really make sense O.o
