This was a great game. I can't believe how simple the areas look after i have completed them and the 'shards' go back in place! I'm only a casual player but i love puzzles! Progressing through levels were paced well. Never felt overly frustrated at any point but never felt like ti was too easy. Sequel?

So what exactly is the mom doing while the kid is lost? Sitting home eating cake? Social Services should of show up around level 5

I love the evocation of mental dysfunction. Good choice of background music and excellent voice work. This whole work fits together very nicely with itself. It's a shame the poem was so short, but a work has to be just as long as it needs to be :) Worth 6 stars if I could give it to you.

THis game right here...This is absolutely a work of art really. I felt myself jumping through those platforms as the child myself. IT had an abstract grip on reality, but that grip was lost quite a few times when you had fallen and had to restart. YOu really need to have an open mind to play this game right, and if you think for a second, it will be easy, you are sadly mistaken. THe quotes at the bottom even made me feel like the whole story line was worth getting to the next page for. I am driven to give the 5/5 for you GRoZleR, good effort on your part, and an excellent story line for those of us who enjoy a good game. I hope to see more like it from you. GOod job.

great game and fantastic concept. 5/5. but as someone said earlier, please put the story text at the end of the game cause i really cant remember a word after finishing the game. and if am not mistaken, we were promised the end of the story in the bonus lvls, but nothing happened!!. i enjoyed the game and hope to c more from u soon.

Good puzzle concept. I have one complaint, and that is towards the story. I had a hard time remembering all of the text for the story because I was thinking about the puzzle too much. If you had all of the story text available after the game is beaten, I would give 5/5.

Wow. This game is amazing. It manages to reference dozens of phrases at once: shattered dreams, run-on sentences, solving things piece by piece, leaps of faith, puzzling together the poem... You name it (:

Great Game! Very nice puzzles. Very good work. It's just a pitty, that i finished all levels so fast. Will there be more levels or "fractured 2"?

could you add a way to hear the entire song/poem instead of only getting a single line at a time? maybe as an award for beating the story or bonus levels?

What an inventive gameplay combining puzzle and platform! I also liked the music and the female voice reading out the lines :) Good idea to add the trickier bonus levels! Thanks for that nice work!

talk about a great mind-boggling game... well done, and great background music, not to mention the touching poetic phrases of the mother in between... awesome!

I love this game. A format and system never used. A good emotional story. A type of creepiness that is very satisfactory. A very good game wich uses few space, or no space, it even has good space, cute artwork.I am very satisfied! Good work! 5 Stars for this!

It is a beautiful mechanic, a veritable 2D version of some clasic Portal Puzzles. I love the well developed back story, perhaps as beautifully done as any game. Simply sad ending, but it is what it is

Cool concept, but boiled down to memorization after a bit. Also, the art didn't really fit the tone, and the poetry itself was bupkis meant to sound deep. I mean, some of those words felt really strained just to make it rhyme, even if it sacrificed a cohesive narrative, which it definitely didn't have. I still have no idea what the story was about. It was also very short. All it had going for it was the shattered camera gimmick. 3/5
I don't think memorization plays a role at all. There's zero trial and error required to complete the game. I'm sorry you couldn't get into the story but at least you enjoyed the gameplay. Thanks for being honest.

I love getting to the end, and seeing such a simple level design and thinking, "Wow! I can't believe it was so hard to navigate that!"
Try looking for matching background elements: a cut in half poster, a lamppost with the light in one fractured piece but the pole in another. There's lots of clues. Don't give up.

I can appreciate the skill it took to make this game, but it isn't my cup of tea. Very unnecessarily sad. Not feeling what I play a game to feel. Agree that the controls were very smooth.

Awesome, but I expected that the boy would actually find his mother. (Sorry if it's the bonus level because I didn't play it)

I can't help but imagine that if I were a more poetic soul and had paid attention to the sentiment rather than jumping around like a madman, I'd find this sad :(

Very, very well done. Some levels you could piece together by the shape of the fragments, others you just had to kind of leap into it and figure it out by trial and error. Challenging but not difficult, just the way I like my puzzle platformers. Excellent job.
There's always a clue to where to go next. Sometimes it's a poster, sometimes a tree, sometimes it's your tiny little feet that you haven't noticed are showing in another fractured piece. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
