Little Wheel

[truepenny]

OneClickDog Games has come out with a flash game called Little Wheel. It's a very short game, and very simple (I'd guess it took me about five minutes), but as with Mateusz Skutnik's Submachine games, what delights me is the art and the world-building--and, for Little Wheel, the animation.

It was a lovely palate cleanser before I run errands this afternoon, and I commend it to your attention.

I must be too old. I clicked on the binoculars and looked, and clicked on the alarm, but I couldn't make any progress.....

Thanks for this; I tried it; maybe my keyboard isn't hooked up right...

I have to admit that I looked at the first few lines of the walk through because I just could not get started, but after that, with a bit of trial and error I got the little chap safely to the main generator.

I got so involved I nearly cheered when all the lights came back on and the little robots came alive again. :)

Me too. It's just too darned cute.

See, now I can't even find the walkthrough.

Also, it's unlikely to be that you're "too old" and more likely that you just aren't familiar with the way this type of game works.

It's all about knowing the reading protocols. :)

But, see, I think after a certain age you lose intuition about new protocols. Our parents can't program their vcrs, etc...
