What aliens have said about the game: -“ 'u' mIpna' ghaH! ” What humans have said about the game: -“Really fun and unique. I can’t wait until Yush comes out with the next installment! I loved that he was available to help via the chat inside the game itself. I would happily pay $5-10 for this game to support this developer." - Ecokate -“I enjoyed this game a lot, and kudos to the developer for being open and easily reachable if you get truly stuck. I got stuck a couple times in the final level and he gave me a couple extra hints without just spelling out the answer. The game is full of fun ways of using your phone’s functionality and translating codes and such. I got stuck primarily because I had no idea a certain function on the phone existed. So if anything it helped me learn about some things about my own device too LOL." - BigJerBear ~Created with love from a small developer (not height wise) :)
