Isn't it just as unfair to love someone for being beautiful as it is to not love someone for not being beautiful? Either way, you fail to see beyond appearances.

This game nearly made me cry out of pure true-ness. Everything in this game is just so true: doesn't everyone want to change things around them, to make them work out the way theyw ant it to? Doesn't everybody fail at that? And this very game made me realise that you indeed have to think bigger... It's just so wonderful. 5/5.

Ok, so the message is: if you're ugly, there's no way you'll ever get the woman of your dreams. You can capture her using elaborate plans, but she'll still get away. At this point, you might as well kill yourself by jumping from someplace high. Your afterlife will be bleak, prison-like, and no one will talk to you even then, though.

It might have went better if he made the machine make her fall in love with him instead of making everyone smaller. It could make all his wishes come true

*falling to my death* Words in my head: Ever wanted to fly? Now's your chance. (Five minutes after still free-falling to my death) I CAN FLY!!!

This would have been a more cool twist... these are Hans last thoughts in searching within himself. He decided he hated who he was and everybody else hated him. He couldn't be contained in this castle (life) and so he jumped out and committed suicide. That would have been a shocker and I bet people wouldn't have seen it coming haha. The end screen could be the cheerleader at his funeral because she felt partially responsible.

I'm sorry, but I didn't like this game. It's not that I didn't enjoy it because of the story, just that how it was put didn't make sense for me. Why doesn't it care about that you like a girl just for her looks and popularity, and then whine that she doesn't like you because of your lack of those things? Other messages (told in the description) failed to show for me, and I just felt like it was too forced. I just saw a whiny boy doing a tantrum over a girl he thinks he deserves. I acknowledge the other meanings wanting to pop up over that but for me it didn't work... And with the name I thought of something very different (this isn't an ode to pixel days)...
I'm sorry for the harsh critique, and I know I'm gonna get downvotes, but I just wanted to state my opinion in a respectful way. Nevertheless, the music is awesome, the game itself is well polished, and the puzzles are on a good path - wish they were harder. I think the idea behind it all and the narration have to get more work.

Well, that was depressing. Kind of an anticlimax at the end where you can go be stalker-y behind the girl but there's no interaction and you can't even stomp her or get past her.

enjoyed the game a lot i liked the idea the most that you get "smaller" all the time and at least you can hold her hand in your dreams thanks for the game ;)

SPOILERS! I’m sorry, but I didn't enjoy the game. It was okay at first. I thought it was cute that Hans would go through all these just to get the girl he likes to even look at him. Then,at the middle part, when he was just a two-pixel little chap, I thought the game would be over, cause he got the girl and all.To be honest,at the time,I wasn’t happy AT ALL that I got her.She annoyed me a lot by bouncing around and NOT leaving me -I mean, Hans- alone. Then HAH!She totally ditches him and reverses ALL of his efforts to get her. Throughout the second half I kept facepalming at how dumb it is for Hans to not realize EARLIER that she just WASN’T worth it.And the puzzles did an amazing job of making me want to pull my hair out. At the very end, I wanted to slap that female dog across the face and just stomp on her head- but I couldn't. Maybe I'm just in a bad mood(don't think so though)and maybe it's just me but I was seriously frustrated with the second half of the game.I'm still frowning.

More seriously: to me, this game really doesn't seem to be about growing up. He leaves a magical freaking castle in the sky for a prison, for gods' sake. It seems more like he tries to move on, but ends up somewhere even worse than when he started. The narrator asks if he ever wanted to fly, but he doesn't fly; he just falls.

i really enjoyed this game, something similar happened to me and i wasnt able to really move on since then, your game really helped me, right now i was having some kind of panic attack until i saw and played your game, i cant thank you enough for it, but it made me feel so good when i was having a really bad time, now i know its part of growing up

This is probably one of the best games I've played on here. It's a good story and very inspiring, keep up the great work!
