This is really awesome, definitely a good entrant in the "video games are art" category.

I do wish it wasn't Flash though. Not that I have anything against Flash itself when used the right way, but I feel like it's really hard to "own" a Flash game.

Unlike, say, iOS apps that you can download and come back to 6 months later, Flash games are a lot more of a flash in the pan (sorry…) and I think it's a shame in cases like this where the end result is so great and so much work obviously went into it.

I agree, like this bomberman-inspired HTML5 game: http://powderkeg.artillery.com/

I'm confused by your comment. How is it hard to own a flash game? You cant download the .swf onto your computer?
