Got kind of far... not sure if it ends, though. Love the ending(s).
And there 'technically' is a way to 'continue'. Just delete the .sol file that's in your 'Application Data' folder. If you don't know where this is, Google is your best friend.

It's quite simple, but fun nonetheless.

This game is inspiring. The music, mood, art, everything. Thank you!

I've been through much pain trying to get IK chains to work properly, then making the model work with the bones. Never quite mastered it, but I've never spent that much time at it, either. Excellent job! I've taken the last scene and turned it into my desktop wallpaper. Gets new reactions from the 'Tsar bomba' pic I had before. :)

Haha cool, I have higher res images of it if you want a higher quality background :)
Just PM me. I couldn't put the full size on newgrounds because the max width is 800.

The Stamper piece at the end was by far the best. Not to say the others weren't good... just that one made my ribs hurt.

Simply superb. The timing, style and mood all blended perfectly. Serious and humorous at the same time. 좋아해Ꮫ 6; :)

The game is nice, but having the weapons keys right above the movement keys is very frustrating. I would have either done 'q' and 'e' to cycle or maybe 'z', 'x' and 'c' so you can use your thumb without moving the three fingers off the control keys. Nice otherwise.

This was refreshing. It was so smooth, so fluid, very inspirational. I loved it! Thanks. :)

"Good, but seriously need to look at compression"
If done right, this should be 3 megs max. Sound is only part of it. I'd export at 80-96 kbps max, that should give the best sound and smallest size for the web. I like to play around and get the lowest bit rate that still sounds decent.
Your other big killer is all the line art. I noticed single frames that have to be at least half meg each. You can cut down significantly by either doing a optimize (control+alt+shift+c) or simply exporting it, saving it as a PNG or JPG and importing it back.
It's a PITA, but well worth the practice. Future projects go much more smoothly. Great work otherwise! :)

This was very well done. Challenging without being impossible or too easy. My only snag was with the log problem when I kept hitting the center of the log deleting it. Then, having two logs on stage screwed it up, but I finally realised to reset. That was a mere PICNIC (problem in chair, not in computer). :D
Nice touch with Mozart's Clarinet concerto... KV 622, right? :)
