#2Neat, but the title should be "A few...". "Few" and "a few" mean different things -- not many, and a small number of, respectively.
And just for completeness, "the few" and "the Few" are additional and different too.
English is sometimes way more complex than it seems.

#3The animation is achieved via colour cycling, right?

Absolutely correct. They have a blog post about it where they discuss the tech behind this briefly (with source code).

(I seem to remember this being submitted to HN a few months ago, before they added sound).

#5I would love to see an HTML5 adventure game built with these scenes and animations. Similar to Leisure Suit Larry, Space Quest, King's Quest and so on.

#6I don't know enough about the technology to understand why I should be impressed, but the 8bit art is superb. Someone really knows how to pick a pixel.

Not entirely what you mean, but have you seen sarien.net?

I have seen it before, but I didn't know it's available on the iPad now. Wow, now I have another reason to get an iPad.

The tech is nice, but the art is incredible. Click the "Show Options" button and you will see the 8-bit palette animating in the lower right. The changes in the palette are the only thing causing the animation of the image. Instead of a series of images, there is just a single image and a function to modify the palette each frame. The artist picked pixels that not only look good, but also are coordinated with the palette and their neighbors to produce the animation.
