Oh, it's really short... hope part two will be more challenging to us point-n-click-addicts.

I've played this before....the way to beat the dragon is to continually attempt to zap him until you memorize his next move....it takes a while

Lame. Animation was pretty good and music was nice for a change, but the concept wasn't spectacular. And that friggin' Dragon Shooting section was just annoying.

i'm sorry, I just wanted to see how this was different from spoiler.

:
So now you see. I've made it so you can't read a spoiler until you click on it. A hint if difficult to read, but not impossible, so you can ignore it as you scan down the page if you wish (you can still click on it to make it easily readable though). Also having them clearly defined for people is useful (well I thought so anyway).

That dragon section was very frustrating, as everyone else said. Cute graphics, though.

Snuffsaid, it isn't Firefox, as I use it and the tags work just fine now.

Su, i think you may have locations 4 and 5 the wrong way round, (if I remember rightly).

As for the game, ditto to what most of you have already said. Very short, and the dragon shooting was fairly irritating due to the fact that it was so long winded. The animation was lush though, I love the colourful, crispness of his graphics and his characters are cute.

The music was cute initially, but I soon found myself reaching for the volume button.
Nice game overall, some improvements could be made as far as gameplay goes, but it is cute nonetheless.
