I like it! Its extremely good for a first game. But I suppose you've been working on it for a while. Anyway, good plot, but the puzzles are a bit easy. Maybe make some puzzles to obtain the string and the key and the marshmallow, because it seems a bit weird to have someone else's key in your barn. One bug, though:
Spoiler
After you poison the bear with the marshmallow, and you 'use' it, It flips the right way up, becomes alive, then says 'Grrr!'. Not too hard to fix, just put a 'dead.bear' variable in there somewhere.

Good plot, and good character and object graphics, though the backgrounds look a little hastily put together :p . (btw, you should include the setup program along with your game. It's in 640*400 but seeing as you didn't include an acsetup.cfg file OR  the setup program, I had to copy a cfg file from another game which I had set to 640*400.

Funny ending, and nice overall for a first game. Work some more on the puzzles and backgrounds for the next game and you're on to ags goodness :). (btw, check out a thing called baselines also :p)

Quite funny game and the charathers where nice but to be honest, the ending wasn't really funny. The music that was inside the barn, did that really come from the SNES game Earthbound? I recognized that music from that game since I have played it on ZSNES Emulator for not so long ago.

Ya its from earthbound but it was too good to not use for the barn. :)

Damn cool that you used my music. The game's funny. Nothing I'm gonna replay, but it was amusing.
