Excellent

Absolutely fantastic game, great controls, puzzles are hard but doable, love the sci-fi story, love pretty much everything about the game and Im only half way through. Please make a sequel! Also please enable a full zoom out feature! Scrolling around to move people does get annoying at times, especially when the aliens come to the base to attack and a fast reaction is needed.
Clever and Great Fun

They did a great job using some really clever puzzles to guide you through certain story sequences.
Amazing

This game took me to period of 2 days to finish...but I loved every minute of it! Old school graphics, great sound track, not too easy or hard...all around 5 Stars!!
Unique and campy

Very unique game, a strange mix of nostalgia for platformers gone by will keep you interested. Very good storyline. Fairly easy but does have level challenges for hardcore completionists. I gotta say though what state of mind were the developers in with the end credits song? Buy it if you're 40+. If not it'll be hard to resonate with. But what do you know anyway, you young whippersnappers! ?
Love the ending

Controls were a little shaky, but I loved the characters and I love the ending. Awesome.
Positive reviews must have been bought

Look for yourself.. All the positive reviews are almost the same length and sound like they were wrote by a marketing person. There is about a minute of actually doing something to every five minutes of non-skipable "dialog". There is a skip button that appears and disappears at random and it doesn't seem to actually skip anything. You are constantly set up to fail, having to randomly tap on things till you get the desired outcome. Example: One of the early missions you have a flashback and you have to lead/distract two characters away over a line. The point was to train you to lead some aliens away from your target character so you can rescue him. But there is no clear point to lead the enemies to and so many obstacles (trees, can't walk between trees?!? Really?!) that you get killed many times till you figure out what you're actually supposed to do. Making the game a pointless wreck. This is not a game it is an exercise to see how long you can put up with pure boredom and tedious tasks. Free would have been too expensive for this program, let alone 3.99. What a waste!!!!! Update, Dec 2015: Still the same! Just a horrible experience. Very poor gameplay design.

It's perfect for a dollar but any higher it wouldn't be worth it. I like it but only in short bursts as some things can be frustrating.
Too short and long-winded

This game was cute and creative, but it was very short. It felt as though the plot or pacing could've been worked out a bit to produce more levels. The game mechanics only just seemed to get interesting at the end, so more could've been done to take advantage of the uniqueness of the gameplay. For me, there's not too much replay-ability, since the cut scenes are so long and there are very few chances to skip them. This is a shame because the Achievements will make you want to go back and try levels again, but you'll be deterred by the amount of time it takes to do so. For a dollar, I'd say this game was worthwhile, but it could've achieved so much more.
Great little game!

A little hard to see since it's so small, but the story, music and dialogue are wonderful. Not very fulfilling/creative in the "adventuring" department, but since it was an obvious project of love it's entirely forgivable. Lost the sound for a bit (glitch?) but I got it back somehow. Good for fans of old school point-and-click adventures. The dialogue is a little long and usually unskippable (despite the available option to), so this is more of a watch and enjoy game. Pretty funny at times, too! Well worth my money.
