Under rating threshold (show) A beautiful game. There were a couple times where I laughed out loud and got weird looks and anything with so many wonderful references CAN'T be bad. The ending made me smile and nod in quiet understanding of the beautiful message contained inside and I am happy to say I am enriched by this. Excellent work, and I look forward to more of Raven's adventures in the future.

Under rating threshold (show) This is marvelous. The music is fantastic, and I feel swept away into the story with it. The art is fantastic - it works perfectly for the story, since it looks childish and yet sophisticated enough to keep the rest of us into the scenery as well. And finally, the story. It wasn’t too complex, but I think it was like that for a reason. It was told like how a child would understand and find funny, but still witty and something the older generations could enjoy as well. I particularly enjoyed clicking on everything and finding it all has its’ own witty dialogue - or that the eyes and flowers each seemed to have their own characteristics and back story (like the pickpocket, whom just reads Daniel Keyes novels now). I loved the titles of the books in Dr. McShellfish's office. I could easily write more on this, like how much effort you put into this game, but that would take far too long. Oh, and thank you for reminding me not to use that capybara. I smiled the whole way through. 5/5

Under rating threshold (show) I've seen a dozen little references to a dozen classics. Elder Scrolls and Discworld? Clever touches.

Under rating threshold (show) Hilarious! Not too hard, but quite amusing. It is a bit text heavy, but text adventures are supposed to be like that. Nice!

Under rating threshold (show) Huh. Map isn't updating for me, and whenever I try to leave Oddness Standing, it always tells me to talk to the gnarf first. Love the game, and I'm not sure if this is just something I'm doing wrong, but could you find out...?

Under rating threshold (show) I've never commented on a game before, but this was so awesome I had to write something. This is a great little game with an amusing characters, an nice concise story, and a wonderful message at the end. I'd recommend it to anyone and everyone. Just beautiful, and my comment just cannot do it justice.
