- This adhered to the one button with no loss or detrimental outcome when stepping away rule, so good job there! It did have a hold mechanic at the beginning, but that's at least just during the menu. The stylized graphics were nice, and the music worked well. It was fun to fling the pumpkin around and see what will come up next in the levels. One bug I found was that the shadow of the pumpkin isn't fully solid, so it looks like light is going through the pumpkin along the seams.
- Thanks for this one! I can tell a lot of thought and effort went into this! Really fun to play!
- Hugely impressive one-button / one-switch game. Really makes you want to see what comes next. Fantastic graphics, and challenging game-play, but at your pace. Really good method for choosing your scanning speed. Would be improved with an option to turn off the music, and if possible to control with left-click (so it will work with more assistive technology). Would be lovely with some more sound effects (e.g. sizzling if you land in the BBQ, sploshing in water, and so on). But that's asking for a cherry on top of a very nice cake. Really... top job!
- A nice concept. I thought it could have been made more interesting by adding to it. Perhaps powerups or effects. It has got some potential. The other thing I would look at improving is making it clearer how to start the game.

The entire game, including UI, is meant to be played using the space bar, as stated on the game's page. Sorry if that wasn't clear from the start, but I never intended the user to use a mouse to click on buttons.
This game is really well done! I love the detail and depth put into each level. One suggestion is to remove the power bar since it stops the flow of the game.
I think this is how all pumpkins should be loaded onto trucks! Super-slick, great implementation!
Thanks!
