This was a cute little game with a message quite relevant today, haha. Really bright, vibrant art, smooth platforming and fluid animations. I feel like it was over a bit too quickly though, i would have loved to platform and explore through more apps, and get, well, distracted further away from the escape hahaha. Great work nonetheless. ^^
