I found this little gem with stunning visuals earlier today, it looks like another game we'll have to keep an eye on.

Have the forums matured so much that it's safe to ask a question like that? Wow!

This game looks amazing. It makes me want to get a job, earn some money, buy it and then play it.

Well, I have now finished it! Short review: Took a little over an hour, more of a puzzle game than an adventure game, very cute graphics and lovely music, one puzzle still makes no sense to me even though I solved it by using a walkthrough (don't normally use walkthroughs but I had searched everywhere for hints to it, and even tried following what I *thought* were hints to it but the solution seems totally obscured to me).

In short, it's not overly long and some of the puzzles are challenging - I needed a paper and pen for this game - but I enjoyed it and am looking forward to the next episode.

Ben: Does this puzzle happen to be unlocking the kitchen cabinet? Trying a code at random I managed to light one of the three red lights but I'm clueless about the remaining codes, or where I'm supposed to find the hint to that puzzle in the first place.

Dem combination puzzles, how I hate thee!

Yeah. Every review I've read of this game calls out that puzzle for being effectively unsolvable. It definitely wasn't just me! I left a question on the developer's blog a while ago about the puzzle and so have a few others... so far their response has been "Thanks for pointing it out though, we'll make sure we're better puzzle designers with the next one!" and not the actual logic behind the puzzle, so I'm still waiting to see what the logic was!
