I was sort of waiting for her to be immolated and/or killed in a horribly gory mess, but alas it was not to be.
Nice music though.
Same. The flying unicorn is kind of a cool mechanic, though.

Down and Out in Paris and London is fantastic! I'm sure that everyone has read Animal Farm and Nineteen Eighty-Four, but this is somewhat of an autobiography for Orwell. While the story is fictional, it contains largely non-fictional content. It follows Orwell's life as a tramp, which he chose to live. The England part is especially fascinating, because it contains large amounts of, "Oh god, this is terribly disturbing," and, "Oh wow, this is pretty damn cool," in equal balance.

oh god. I remember playing that and being blown away by the little video at the beginning. And yes, it was hard as fuck.
I have it sitting right next to me on my desk, but I'm afraid to play it. I don't want to relive those terrible childhood memories.

Holy shit, Glaiel. I've been playing your flash games, since like, forever.
And responses like this (random people knowing who I am) make it all worthwhile. Same here. You did some tutorials for AS:Main, right? Anyway, I do game development just because it's fun. I have never released anything, though.

Pata-pata-pata-pon! Pon-pon-pata-pon!*
...
In all seriousness, this looks pretty cool. Good luck!
*This is funny because Patapon is sort of a side-scrolling RTS, you see.

Old sauce.
Actually I read these a while back. He's on, what, the third one now and they're not getting any funnier. They've got a kind of captain underpants appeal, only without the cool action sequences.
Every book needs Flip-O-Rama. Captain Underpants was awesome. Then they made the books consist entirely of poop jokes. This made me very, very sad.
