Had a few difficulties along the way but I actually finished it quite easily. The badge makes games more known. I like it.

Did someone bribe the guy who decides on the badges of the day to get this up today? In fact, who even bothered to badge this extremly tedious game in the first place?

This is how you do a spot the difference game right, you should have badged this one....at least it's functional.

Want the badge just use q+w then right arrow , right arrow etc to skip to last level and then complete the last level and the badge is yours

I click somewhere. It blinked. Then wondered what just happened? What was the difference there? I was pretty dumbfounded after.

I've enjoyed games of this genre before. And I really like the weird psychological theming of this one, even if it doesn't really go anywhere. But when the differences to spot boil down to multiple slight variations in a pattern of bricks, or a slight fringe of grass, or a single star in the sky, it quickly turns tedious. The differences in a spot-the-difference game ought to be interesting to spot in themselves, at least for me. Better tools might have helped -- I've seen games like this which create a second cursor on the other half of the screen, letting you pick out trivial differences more easily by seeing what corresponds to what.
Overall, a good effort, but flawed.

Today I learned counting to twelve is less intuitive to me than recognizing constellations and the direction intricately drawn shrubbery faces. Reading comprehension is even easier than that, and of course huge glaringly missing bits are the ease st. ;)

Lifehack: screenshot it and then invert for the later levels. Also turn off the lamp, or any light source. The only light should come from the screen.

Cheats aren't a cool way to get a badge, and I'm surprised this game didn't code it in where you wouldn't get the badge by doing the level skip.... That aside, that's one creepy as fudge ending... If you didn't know to look at the stars you would think it was just a shillfest for CrazyMonkey and IvoryBoy... where there were 5 differences to find there too... A rather average clickfest though...

If you have any issues, do one of these three things.
1. Clean your screen.
2. Read and use this link: http://kongcg.blogspot.com/2010/02/5-differences.html
3. Turn up or down your brightness.
That's what got me to get the badge. Oh and whatever you do stay calm and try do it all in 1 sitting as it does not save your progress.

If you're having a hard time, you can take a screenshot, then paste the image into 2 instances of MS Paint (or something similar). Crop it down to just one of the images in each one, then toggle back-and-forth between the two. Even minor differences will become VERY apparent

Beautiful illustrations, interesting execution with the animations, wonderfully crazy ideas, but also INSANELY FRUSTRATING.

I can't finish the level with the man on the floor, the painted eye, the guitar and the reverse clock
I've found 4 difference (the guitar, the lower part of the window, and some bricks).
Can someone tell me what is the 5th difference?
I've clicked everywere for 10 minutes without founding anything :(

I don't like find the difference games, but this was more interesting than normal for being animated. I appreciated that. I had to finish it for the badge, and unlike some people, I didn't want to cheat to get to the end. :)
