This reminds me why I dislike (1) platformers with touchy controls and (2) storylines that force words and feelings on *my* character.

Real annoying that the hint signs become unusable when you walk over them, especially when the text for them become hidden because some other text appeared, or you didn't get a chance to read it all because the Newgrounds logo is covering it.

You can't complete the game unless you have all your stats maxed at 5 then talk to the computer, if their not at the right level you can't use the computer again and won't be able to finish the game.

This games sux for lack of instructions, took me the longest time to realize for some reason the dream boss drops black gems I can hardly see to collect for the win. As to how to get the black gems to drop I have no idea how its just completely random. 2 stars for a game that could be better

The initial dialog automatically loses 2 stars. It's a game, not a novella. The way she "slides" when stopping, another 1 star. Fine game, otherwise. I do like how you increase your skills by using them - that's an underused strategy. 3/5

Despite everyone saying that it is a great game, 5/5, best game eva and downvoting people with negative opinions, I find myself conflicted. Story is nice, the game is a roaming roguelike, side characters are funny and the development is linear. However controls are slippery and strange (left, right, x, c for the menu/pause not even said in game). The shadow is also a "what am I supposed to do?" and the first times you are bound to die and lose all the progress. Moreover it HAS to be beaten to achieve 100% completion, hence I don't approve the medium badge associated. Lastly, how do you end the game? You have no idea and even talking to everybody you have no info on it. The only hint is that a giant computer will repair your memories once you are enough "levelled up".
Since I don't like roaming around aimlessly for tons of time and doing trial and error with the keyboard to find the controls (menu being c was the best surprise), I give it a 3/5!

It took me so long to 100% this game, I got so frustrated while trying to find the final red gems, tip: Try dashing right from the highest point in the Squarian town, and then Jump while falling, this will cause you to land on a hidden ledge with the final red gems on it.

eventually somebody will turn the game off and turn it back to see all the progress erase, then they will think it is part of the game.

"Hey look, an NPC!" *eats fireball* "Ouch, apparently that was an enemy."
"Oh no, an enemy!" *accidentally bumps into it later* "Oh, that was an NPC?"
This game also contains the old-school concept of background that can just barely be distinguished from the actual ground you can stand on. It brings back memories. Bad ones.

Agreed. Very bad game. You get a limited amount of time to play, and then if you save everything gets reset to lvl 1. If you don't save the game kills you at 8pm and everything gets reset to lvl 1. So until you memorize the whole map and can run through it super fast, there's no way to finish :(
