Kinda lame

The game itself is in poor quality. I would have attempted to upgrade it a bit more before releasing it on newgrounds. The text needs major improvement as a player can not read the entire sentence. perhaps have discussions/notes open up in a window so that we can read the entire thing. For example, the questions about the snails reads as this:
"One green snail, one yellow" "the green snail is in a" "the yellow snail is on a" "a bird swoops down" "which does it get?"

This is also the case with other discussions/notes.
As previously stated, there should be animation to this game as well, and the bgm needs to improve as well.
There are many other things this game needs to improve upon, as you can tell simply from playing it.

Good try

Seems well thought out, now just work on gfx, sound, interactions, slow response times, collisions, ect...

Not very good? Why??

I do not know about what is this game, is simple, and I agree with you in respect to the graphics, sound and the dialogues, but I think its need more improves, as the music isn´t apropriate, needs to be more smooth, the character could have motions, basicaly walk, and the most important than everything: the story. A adventure is not a adventure without a story, a creative story. This game needs of this basics points, but in least it´s a little fun :)

Not too great

The buttons in the game didn't seem to work properly, and the whole thing didn't make too much sense. The "shh go away im dead" part was kinda funny though. Perhaps you should have used a better song or whatever to play also, because that -guitar?- didn't sound too good. In the future, you may also want to make the buttons seem like buttons (let it make that finger symbol). Even if it is pretty terrible you probably don't want to say that in the menu of the game.

needs some improvement

Not bad for what seems like a first attempt.

You did say in your comments that you needed to neaten up the gfx so you already know to work on that. I would make the character move a bit faster, it is pretty slow for an explore game.

Also, the music seems repetitive and a little simplistic, don't forget you can use the audio portal to add music to your games. There are a lot of good songs for games on there.

Some more instruction would be good as well, even just in the author comments. I found myself trying to figure out the "..." the flame, and the knife buttons for a while before realizing that you need to be at an interactive object to use them. Looking forward to future work. Don't get me wrong, it seemed fun, Im just tryin to help you out.
