adorably violent

I dunno about perfect game, but it's very cute. It's a little reminiscent of Hapland... same basic genre, and the puzzles are fairly good.
The one thing that I found really annoying was the total lack of any method of gamesave... this is another convention from Hapland, and it's a bad one, IMO. I should be able to save and restore state without having to do the whole freakin' thing over again.
That said, this is fun and has lots of style, worth the time to play.

Is there a point to the things you do? I mean, I've tried getting the guy on the roof through the door, and it seems like you're meant to turn all the buttons green on the puzzle, but that doesn't work. Nor does turning them all red. If there's a point, it's fairly non-intuitive.

Yes, what is the answer to the puzzle with the green and red buttons? I feel like an idiot that I can figure this out.

yes, there's a point. you just make them all green, and then something important happens. it's a huge puzzle - everything you do is important and, in my opinion, logical.

I can't figure out what to do after it shows the underground part. I've sent the guy down the elevator, and it doesn't seem to do anything.

Eh, nevermind. I got the red/green buttons thing. (Still feeling stupid, though...)

Ah, I just realized. It's one of those things, where there's exactly one right answer and anything else doesn't work. Never mind then.

Thanks... I guess. I don't usually go for this kinda thing, but that just ruined a solid hour. Very fun.
