Looks good. Beautiful artwork.
I don't have Android though :(
QuoteYou won't find any lengthy boring dialogs in this independent puzzle / adventure game.
Hopefully this means they have lengthy interesting dialogs :D
I think they don't have dialogs at all, something like Machinarium.
Also,
Quote... solving logical puzzles, brain teasers and mini-games ...
That kills all adventure games for me. It sure killed Machinarium...

Yes :(
I don't have an Android phone either, though...
EDIT: After watching the youtube video....magnet and string? Safe with conveniently placed puzzling paper nearby?
....this is how far we've come in 25 years?
It seems that most of what this game has going for it is atmosphere.
This looks nice, finally and adventure game. :) I'll definetly at least try the demo. EDIT: it says my device is not compatible with the app. :(
A bit off topic ramble:
Since I got an android phone last year, I wanted to make some adventure game for it. Gameplay has to be modified for it since the screen is rather small (especially on my Glaxy mini) and, as I've learned from trying to use a paint apps on it, you can't really see what you are doing while you're pressing the screen nor is it very precise.
I've manged to run Flight of the amazon queen and it's difficult to press the right buttons although it does work, I also tried to transport Broken sword (since the directors cut is addapted for tablet and ds touch gameplay), but I didn't manage to get it running.
And since I don't know how to program, I found App Inventor (sort of visual based blocks programing, which looked like a cool way to get into doing things) as a good solution, sadly they've discontinued it till further notice http://info.appinventor.mit.edu/
Now there are more software solutions that say they offer making apps with no programing skill but what I've found is that they're basically just switching web pages, rss feeed, youtube, facebook etc. (basically internet and file content) into simple, predefined apps, which is not really that usefull (or to be more precise - practical).
...if anybody has suggestions...
