Well I've played some of the game but I got a question... and not sure if this is a bug or not but

Spoiler

When I use Telekinesis on the big rock on the screen with the fairy... it floats over and rests on the stump... then floats back to its original spot like spell is casted twice...

Is it supposed to do that?

Hey how can I get off the broom?

Well that was funny

QuoteIs it supposed to do that?

Yes, it is.

Spoiler

It's for a puzzle where you have to put something on the stump before cast the spell.

You can't (and you don't need to, anyway.).

QuoteWell that was funny

Thanks, I really hoped it would be funny, as I never really tried to make a funny game before.

The download didn't work. At first it presented a blank html file, on the second attempt I got a screen but the download button caused a file-not-found message.

The mirror html looks better, but the download button just refreshes that html. So not luck

!Modified! Thanks Peder, that link was good and fast!

Hi, this is a cute little game! I enjoyed the concept very much, the dialogues were funny too - well done!

But not the colours.

Spoiler

The twine and loppings were nearly invisible in the house and when I looked into my inventory - I couldn't see them because of the background. I have got the hair (for the wizard), the mirror and silver - don't know what to do with them, maybe making a silver plate? I found the sunny spot. I guess I have to place something onto the stump before using telekinesis, the things I have don't go there.

I guess I have to sort out the colour puzzle first - I have seriously trouble distinguishing these colours, which is blue, yellow, green

- so I have to give up. But it was fun until then

i enjoyed this game. the turning colour thing puzzle was evil, but well thought out.

You should not be able to have the mirror and silver. Could you tell me how this was possible for you?
You have to solve the colour puzzle befor you can put anything on the stump in the room with the fairy (theres an other stump where you can put something else).

Is the coulor puzzle really difficult? In my opinion it is rather easy, but that's perhaps because I know the solution.

Finished the game... Good puzzles, nice atmosphere, ONE BUG:

Spoiler

when I put the mirror on the stump, it's still in my inventory

Overall, I enjoyed it - especially the colour puzzle. It was challenging, but not frustrating.

Well, I have found the mirror and the stone somewhere in the forest. When I looked at the stone it said, oops - this is silver or something like this...
The colour puzzle is difficult because I couldn't distinguish the colours, blue and purple looked the same to me - being handicapped and colour blind

(I guess there was green and yellow too) A hint for game developers (!!!!), much easier working with symbols!

Nice game otherwise!
