I'm completely stuck on what I think is the first puzzle. What I've tried so far under the spoiler:
I'm clicking the arrow to cover the bottom two panels, but I can't figure out when that's supposed to help!
I've tried covering the flood, but I'm still locked from continuing. I've tried covering the bottom two panels of the shower page, but then when I click to page 4 the footer automatically retracts and page 4 still has a flood. I've also tried skipping pages, but they seem to be the same as when I read them in order. I've read the clues and feel like I get what the gimmick is meant to be, but nothing's changing so I must be misinterpreting it somehow!
I can't get all the way to page 4 without water showing up at any point, because the footer retracts whenever I change pages. Covering water up after the fact doesn't seem to do anything. And I've clicked "restart" tons of times!
Took me way too long to figure out how to get thru the 3rd level, but when i figured it out it was amazing
That was adorable! I had a lot of trouble figuring out the mechanics but when I did it was really fun!
I don't Understand I can't solve the first puzzle
I understand but how do I do the third puzzle?
when you open the menu at the bottom, notice how it blocks the bottom two panels.
how did you do it
Here are some hints
As tradition in the ROT-13 Cipher(A->N B->O ... Z->M)

After Launch it is just a black screen
oh no! What's your web browser ? was it on PC/Mac or mobile ?
Cute game! I was really confused what a "bouncing yellow button" was, however. Is English not your native language? I would suggest revising this instruction.
It is not my native language indeed. What's your suggestion for a better terminology?
Pulsing maybe?
So cute! And I really love the mechanic. The tree one took a while until it twigged : ) Happy ▲ day!
Happy ▲ day !
this game is isck
Thumbs up, you cool
👍
That was smart! I enjoyed this, the OH moment as soon as I solved the first one and figured out why was really fun :D
Glad you liked it !
the art's cute but I have no clue what is happening, how to play, or why things sometimes change. Got stuck when the strategy of just clicking until it solved stopped working (the tree decorating one)
nvm , got it, really cool and clever solution, just not sure how all the other ones worked. last one was the only one that fully made sense to me
Thanks !
I added a hints window to give a bit more context to how the comic is supposed to be solved and how to interpret the solutions :)
That last step (no pun intended!) was a doozy...but clever and fair. 10/10 on both innovation and cuteness.
It's interesting to see that some people have a hard time to understand how the first 2 puzzles works OR the last one but rarely both.
I was pretty stumped on that last one and accidentally got it but it made so much sense.
Amazing game!
Thank you !
Love me a comic book style puzzle! It's like Framed but it's doing its own thing, and the art is intensely cute.
Thanks Patashu ! We all need some cuteness once in a while :)
I've never seen anything like this, just loved it
Thank you ! I tried something original, happy to know you liked it :)
