Yes, this game is dangerous, Oscar.  You might pull a muscle laughing.

Hehe, yeah! It’s interesting, I’m playing Toonstruck for the 3rd of 4th time, and only now I feel like I’m enjoying it fully in the comedic sense. I guess I was paying more attention to the drawings, puzzles or music than to the dialogs the last time, but you also need a somewhat solid English language knowledge for some of the puns.

Cow and sheep after transformation is a classic! weird scene to be playing when someone steps in the room

She’s a victim of bad cow disease. 

Speaking of creatures, I do feel sorry for the poor elephant, especially since I’ve been back and forth so many times.  My inventory is also getting full.  I finally found a strategy that worked for the arcade machine after losing 6 or 7 times. 

Oh, and I tried putting things in the cutifier, but Bricabrac always gives them back.

Hehe… How about using Flux on squirrel’s door:

- Go up there and ask the squirrel if you can grab his nuts.
- I thought you’d never ask.

Yeah, until you’re completely done (12 objects in the correct place), you’ll be hanging on to your stuff as regular inventory items.

I just love when adventure games reward you for solving a puzzle with a beautifully rendered and hilarious cut scene.

Ditto. Also, the “Meanwhile!” scenes in the style of Monkey Island or Day of the Tentacle are great addition for this sort of games. I don’t know why that feature was kinda abandoned in later humorous offerings.

Guard - The Outhouse Guard. Prevents “toileting with intent”. Hasn’t left his post for years, apparently.

Jim - “Get To The Choppa!”

Cat - A minor character. Well, not really a character at all, but we can hear it.

Vulture - Likes blues music. And signs. (“You mean an omen?”)

Lizard - The Lizard King, baby!

Woof & Warp - Flux: WACME! Drew: Maybe later.

Cuckoo - “Cuckoo clocks!” (Do it in Gabriel Knight 2 accent)

Swordfish - Not much is known about the Swordfish. It’s quite an important character in the game, though. Can you spot him?

and

My pal Flux.

I’m giving you a greenlight to:

You’ll have 6 days to do so. An extra day is because we’re starting it one day earlier so everyone who reached the wolf’s den can get going with the game, and those who’re behind can easily still catch up.

I have been playing for several hours but can’t figure out how to get the nuts.  I think I should find a girlfriend for the squirrel, but so far, no luck.  It took me about 15 tries to finally get the sole from the fish toilet.  (I don’t think I have a fast twitch muscle left in my body anymore.)

Ah-ha!  I forgot about the cabinet!  Only 2 more items to go, I think.  I understand now why we hold onto our stuff.

You said it all.
