Okay I've played it now and I can safely say that this is an amazing game. It has grabbed me. To put it another way, I've been taken back. Back to the START of my gaming career when I was first struggling to get the motor skills I needed to beat Super Mario Bros. Now it's happened again. Years from now I may be able to easily beat this game, but as it stands I'm struggling just to get through levels in one piece. The control mechanism is that nifty. Maybe a painter would do better, but for me, it's just such a different control mechanism I'm just struggling to get by, and I say that in a GOOD way! I love this game!
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
