This site has been up for years, and never before been submitted? I should scrape my history...

the game breaks should you move yourself into the portal, at the house level to the lava level, in telekinesis mode

I think it made me nauseous playing. Pretty neat though. :-)

Destroyed my browser. Chromium, Linux, 64 bit. Flash has been having a lot of trouble with this combination recently.

Firefox 3.5, Ubuntu 9.10 x32 and my eeePC (1000HE) running it fine... Some lag if I instantiate a lot of telekentically rendered matter...

Chrome dev build 4.0.266 on Ubuntu 9.10 Netbook Remix (32bit) on Acer Aspire One 150 works fine.

P.S: Flash videos seem to load pretty slow on Chrome though.

Had a great time trapping a NPC and jerking it off haphazardly deep inside my imaginary penis. Thanks.

The art is very cool, but the demo is entirely too easy. The "shooting" feature's kickback allows you to fly, bypassing any obstacles. Unless this is a feature, in which case the obstacles need to be designed with that in mind. Other than that, pretty neat!

Even easier, you can just click and drag yourself in telekinesis mode...

More fun: draw a spaceship around yourself and drag that around.

I stopped playing about 10 minutes ago, but my brain still thinks my monitor is rolling left and right.

cute game but what's wrong with using the cursors?
