it is an incredible game! Very clever! You must make more of such games! Bravisimo!
A really enjoyable puzzle game, I really liked that the painting was used as a puzzle for this (and I added free background music), overall I loved the concept of it as a whole.
thank you so much for your kind words!
It was a very enjoyable game that allowed us to experience an interpretation of René Magritte's art!
It is an interesting example of the depths of the human psyche to take inspiration from art and sublimate it into a game.
Also, the bunny collecting berries was very cute, meow!
I am really happy that you enojoyed it! Yes, I really tried to take inspiration from the painting and turn it to a puzzle that feels like a "journey" where you should visit all the different worlds of the painting. Also thanks for the youtube video!
That's and absolutely brilliant game adaptation of René Magritte's painting. I am really looking forward to play more games like that!
this is CUTE, i liked it!!
I had a good time!

This painting always looked to me like a screenshot from one of those 90's multimedia and first person adventure game CD-ROMs, which are very near and dear to my heart. Now I can actually play it!
I thought the puzzles in here were pretty clever! There was a good mix of like, expected and unexpected interactions, so it conveys the surrealist inspiration well, I think :D
Happy you liked it!
The tanagram puzzle was probably my favorite. It looks totally abstract at first but it has just enough cluing to start playing with it? Got that little "a-ha!" moment
Awesome game with tricky puzzles. It really brings the painting to life. :) I found the stars ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★
