The animation IS SO SLOW. Either that or I couldn't figure out how to play. So I can't rate, sorry.
Cute little game. The opening scene was rather slow but I found the penguin at the end! Nice to see a fellow FlashPunk entry
Argh, this opening cutscene! Why are you doing this to me?
Got to the game and I have no idea what's going on. Where'd this balloon come from? But I guess I completed it?
Thanks for the feedback, everyone! The opening cutscene has been pretty unanimously disliked, so I sped it up in the Kongregate version since I don't think I'm allowed to change my entry.
Draknek:
The idea was that the guy in the suit was a balloon salesman or something like that. It wasn't made clear at all though. I should have put a sign in front of him or something.
Hmmm .. I got to the rotating world and saw the different scenes, but I couldn't figure out what to do. Seems like it could be pretty neat though!
Apart from the slow intro, I really enjoyed it. The graphics were quite unique, and the "tiny world" theme was captured nicely.

Great stuff, really enjoyed it! That poor penguin ;_;
