This game looks so cool and I'm so excited to play it! But every time I try too it freezes after three lines of dialogue. :(

Oh no!, I'm not sure why that is happening... could you tell me which dialogue options you selected and what version you are using?

If you are using the browser version, i would recommend downloading it for now, it tends to be much more stable

I have it downloaded! But It stops right after it says "you become aware that you seem to be in a queue.." and instead of continuing the game freezes.

hmmm, okay well I’ll try to work out what’s wrong and do a fix for tomorrow. Sorry you’re having issues with it!

Could always try the browser version for now and it will hopefully be working  :)

Hi again, I downloaded the game to test it and it seems to be working on my end. It does however seem like the part it is getting frozen is the first animated section so its possible that is causing issues...

If you aren't too busy could I ask what platform you are using and if it works when you reload the game?

Yay, I made it to Paradise!! Incredible artwork and great sound design! (THANK YOU FOR ADDING THE TIP DIALOGUE WHEN YOU GET STUCK ON THE PASSWORD...I HAVE THE MEMORY OF A GOLDFISH AND FORGOT WHAT IT WAS...) Awesome game!

Thank you so much, that is very kind!

and don't worry I am the same with puzzles hahaha
