Interesting little game. Not much in terms of game play, but hey, good for 48 hours. I thought it was quite cool.

for those getting stuck on that 1st screen. you can push the 1st block. as i discovered just now. its still as slow as hell though.

The visuals are reasonable, but you cover up what might be some really nice art with a lot of screen overlay style effects, especially in the early few sections of the game. I also noticed that on the snow level, the ice effect only actually appears once, even if you fall off the edge and die - is this by design? Beyond that I'd agree with a previous comment, pushing the block has got to be faster, it's mind numbingly boring right now.
It's a good start, with some more time put into expanding the game in terms of length (and perhaps more clearly putting across the backstory) it could be made even better.
Also, as great as your names are, it might be worth either fading to black (or a "the end" screen) or providing a way to get back to the menu - just in case.

Ignore previous comment. It's still a pretty short game. Nice graphics. Make it a 3/5 instead.

I will be frank. I just played through the whole of the game. The gameplay is rather below average. The platforming is slippery (especially in the scene with the clouds) so it is of little wonder that I did not enjoy that part of the game. The platforms weren't too nicely visible. I liked the atmosphere, and occasional touches were good (splashing water, round torch) the graphics were pretty good too. If you ask me what to improve, I would say: Improve the platforming. The block-pushing at the first part of the game needs to be faster. While it IS an art game (and as with all art games, people will interpret this in various ways, so I won't say how I interpreted it myself), it should have smooth gameplay. Overall, 3/5 would be a fair rating, as it did not really impress me a lot. The length of the game was also short, but I suppose that is because of the less development period. Try building and improving upon this. It COULD be a good game with some polishing and improvements.
