I'm glad this has happened and in a quicker time than expected,
I now feel kind of bad as I didn't give version 1 as much feed
back as I maybe feel I should have other than the generic looks
nice, plays nice, well done kind of thing. I'll keep it short
anyway, I'll say my favourite thing about the first version was
(and I'm sure it stands for this version too) it's harder than it
looks. It's got that polished sort of this game is gonna be easy
look to it. However this is not the case, and I admire the way the
graphical deception comes into play. It gives the impression that
it will be an hour or so and you'll have finished, but this
obviously is not the case. It becomes apparent after you've had a
few goes and not finished it. I did get caught by a few of the
above mentioned things but it didn't stop me enjoying the game
itself, with them fixed I can finish it.
All in all the design is clever, and I still say I love the use of
trampolines in the living quarters area of the ship it's special
stuff and actually gives a genuine feeling of fun. Almost reminds
me of jumping on my mothers bed when I was younger, it was only fun
because I wasn't supposed to do it though.

Thank you very much for these comments.
I like to know what the player loved more or less.
It's not easy to jump on a bed...I believe that everybody did that
when they were children, in this game, it's still possible!

For English native speaker, say me if the new translation in English
is better for you.

I think that with assistance, there will be soon other versions
translated into several languages...
I will speak soon about it.

Good Bye,
Hervé
